We Fill Our Lives With Sound

A touch overdue, but here are my thoughts on the play (bare) I saw last week with Lia.

Oh. My. God.

Yeah, that pretty much sums it up.

I have adored this show since Mango introduced me to the music in what, 2004? Yes, the ending is giggle-riffic, but on the whole, the show is a phenomenal piece of work.

One of the fellows in the show is someone I actually personally knew, which was a bit weird (and I never really liked him. K, you know what I mean..), but I did not let it bug me.

What did bug me was the actor playing the lead, Peter, was very flat. I mean personality-wise, anyways. Not emotion, not until the song right at the end with the priest. Which is depressing because one of my favourite songs is right at the beginning and it's such a touching song. Oh well.

The other lead, Jason, was absolutely dreamy. Sexiest eyes, I swear. Yes I was all the way in the audience, but he was looking at me, okay!? And cute ass too. Which is why I go the theatre, I don't know about the rest of you.

Second play I've seen recently is The/A Very Potter Musical, via youtube, and let me tell you it's HP crack or the soul. Very good, if you didn't take the books too seriously. The Voldemort and Quirrell bromance made it, I swear.

my life is a show, lia, fandom and other strange animals, bitchin' tunes
