Bwee! Tomorrow at the Angelika, there’s a sing-along screening of West Side Story! And Schlien and I are going! The first 25 that arrive in costume (either WSS or the musical of our choice) get in first, so I’m looking for something Anita-ish. Of course, because we can go as characters from other musicals, I’m considering donning my Angua costume and challenging anyone that denies the validity of “Men at Arms: The Musical”. Har. ::goes to look though CDs for ideas::
Meanwhile, Man of La Mancha goes swimmingly. Mama (Ms. Morton, the accompanist–hee!) and Mr. Oliver finally decided to drop “It’s All the Same” a minor third, making the high notes beltable, and much more easily singable considering the strain of the table dance. So hurrah!
Quotes of the day:
Loh: Electric charge is concentrated on pointy things.
Marcelina: Like bacteria!
Oliver: [to the Muleteers] You know her! You know her very well.
Tom: Biblically.
Me: And I have the receipts to prove it!
Me: Aww, you know she’s just jealous of Aldonza’s collection of venereal diseases.
