Passing Strange on B'way, Assassins at OCC, Sweeney Todd at the Ahmanson, Sunday on B'way, Into the Woods in like, a million places, including Citrus College, Cypress College, Torence, I don't even know where else. Company when Abi was in it, don't remember where. Fiddler at the Pavillion I think, and Citrus maybe? I don't know for sure. Rent on B'way and on tour like a thousand times, mostly at OCPAC. West Side Story I've seen at Torence. And the Last Five Years at the Chance.
What's your favorite song from play 2?
I really like the Gun Song / The Ballad Of Czolgosz and since on my CD of the OBC it's one track, I'll count it as one song! I also love Another National Anthem...And Unworthy of Your Love. And it's really hard to choose...
Who's your favorite character from play 4?
Well, George. <---Yeah...
What's your favorite scene from play 5?
It's Your Fault or Like Father, Like Song.
What's your favorite lyric from play 8?
It's a cheesy and obvious choice, BUT-
"The opposite of war isn't peace, it's creation!" <----Again, yeah.
From play 10, which character are you most like?
Jamie, except in the gender thing.
Can you quote every line from play 1?
No, only seen it once. That's my excuse.
How many times have you seen play 3?
Just once live. OH MY GOD. It was amazing.
If you could be anyone from play 6, who would it be? Why?
One of his girlfriends.
What's your favorite song from play 7?
If I Were A Rich Man always makes me think of my baba, so I lvoe it. And Matchmaker has a special place in my heart. And goodness, I don't know, it's hard to pick.
What's your favorite quote from play 9?
Doc: When do you kids stop? You make this world lousy!
Action: We didn`t make it, Doc.
Out of all these plays, which one is your absolute favorite?
I cannot choose. I think that Passing Strange is BRILLIANT, but Sunday...And it's made harder by the fact that things like Woods or Fiddler are classic and old school to me.
Who's the best Broadway actor?
Right now on Broadway? jeezus. Don't ask me that. Daniel Evans rocks my world. Daniel Breaker was fantastic. And I love Norbert. <--Stealing from the Rox.
Who's the best Broadway actress?
I cannot answer this...I can't just steal Roxana's answer, so I give up.
What's the best musical they turned into a movie?
Jesus Christ Superstar & Fiddler On The Roof. Apparently the same directors. I love West Side Story, but it's oddly different from the stage show. But the movie feels more right to me, because it's what I knew first.
Is there a musical you DON'T like?
Uh, yes.
If so, which one? Why?
Li'l Abner cause it SUCKS. And Spring Awakening cause it sucks and people think it doesn't.
Do you think the movie versions are better, or the original Broadway plays?
The original versions. They were written for the stage, and I have never, ever seen a musical that worked as well as on screen as it does onstage. <---Roxana just takes my answers before I can get to them...
This or That:
The Producers or RENT - Rent
Wicked or Chicago - Chicago.
Fiddler on the Roof or Oklahoma - Fiddler. Though I LOVE Oklahoma.
Thoroughly Modern Millie or 42nd Street - Don't know either one very well..
Hairspray or Grease - Hairspray.
