Musicals, Broadway, and other Suchlike Things



Yo! This is the area of my passion-- Broadway musicals. Okay, I know you're thinking "Jesus Christ, people smiling all the time and randomly bursting into song...of course! This happens all the time in reality! ...not." Well, listen up, kiddos, it's very different. Okay, maybe some of the musicals are like that, but, uh, Into the Woods? Hello? How many people die in that thing? There should be a dead/injured tally for that show. Not that I was complaining. Eh, so we have all the little sections, and if the MTC kiddos want a message board in the MTC area so we can spread rumors about the new musical for the summer (all your fault, Donna & Jeanette ^_^), ::give me a buzz::. For now, we have a neato news marquee ^^; Isn't it cool?! Also, if you want lyrics to a show, you can try to sift through ::epicdisaster::, my music blog. I may be putting recordings of my crazy self singing songs posted on there, if I ever get enough money to buy a microphone. I also have decided to put up funny lyrics from shows on another page. There will be a link soon.

Til I update again-- "I'm a fla-na-na-na-na!"

PIPPIN

IS HAPPENING AT MARIN THEATER COMPANY THIS SUMMER! ** CONGRATULATIONS TO SARAH FOR WINNING THE PART OF ANNIE IN THE MOUNTAIN PLAY! WE'RE SO PROUD!

I have a dream, a song to sing
To help me cope with anything
If you see the wonder of a fairy tale
You can take the future even if you fail
--Sophie, Mamma Mia!
