Quiet.

Obviously I haven't seen a show in a while... since there have been no new posts. But I will be in NYC for a whole week in March so that means TONS of theater and TONS of opinions and thus TONS of blog posts. Get excited! I AM.

Exciting.

The fact that Pippin is coming to Broadway is exciting enough. BUT the cast was announced today, and luckily not much has changed from A.R.T.

Below is the article from Playbill about the cast!

It's been a long time since I've graced this blog with a post, so I figured I would dig deep and find something interesting to share even thought I haven't seen a show lately. Going to college far away (eh, like 4 hours) from NYC will do that to you.

You might be wondering why I don't go to Albany or Proctor's in Schenectady and catch a traveling Broadway show or just something at The Egg. Well, my friends, the reason is because my nights are no longer free... #rehearsal.

So my interesting theater news is that I was cast as a member of the chorus in our Theater Department's production of Sweeney Todd -- big news since our program does not provide any training or opportunities for musical theater, or at least not often. I think the last time we did a musical was 12 or 15 years ago. But now, Sweeney Todd.

I guess I will be giving you updates throughout the semester (the show is in April). We just finished our first week of rehearsal and the chorus has learned all their music except "God, That's Good" and "The Contest/Pirelli".

It's been a long time since I've been in a musical, and I've always complained that whenever I'm at school I'm deprived of musical theater. Well, guess that's not the case this semester.
