Green Day Comes to Broadway

So sorry everyone for not writing for a while. I've been both tied up at rehearsals and also sick! Anyways, as many of you may have heard, a new Broadway show called American Idiot, about the popular rock band, Green Day, is coming to Broadway April 20 at St. James Theatre. Okay, I personally, am not too thrilled about this. I mean, I know these people are trying to attract rock fans to Broadway, but I just don't think that's the best crowd to bring to Broadway. Sure, Green Day has come out with some classic songs, but really? A show about them?!? Anyways, the cast HAS been announced , which includes John Gallagher Jr., Stark Stands, Theo Stockman, Leslie McDonel, Van Hughes and so many others that I have never heard of. But for those of you who are really into this band's music, go crazy and buy tickets for this new show!

Legally Amazing!!!!!

Sorry everyone that I haven't been posting lately! I've been caught up with rehearsals for a local production of Fiddler on the Roof and haven't found the time to actually post anything. Okay, on Tuesday of this past week, I saw Legally Blonde The Musical at the Buell Theatre and LOVED it!!!!!! I mean, I knew going in that I would like it a lot, but not be completely in love with it! Becky Gulsivg, who played Elle Woods, was an incredibly comical yet sweet blonde president of Delta Nu. Those of you who haven't seen the movie are INSANE! It's probably one of my very favorite movies of all time. I love Reese Witherspoon a lot, but still prefer Gulsvig. "What You Want", the song about Elle deciding to apply for Harvard Law, was a fantastic ensemble dance number. I'd have to say though, out of ALL the songs, "Omigod You Guys" and "Bend and Snap" have to be my favorites (I just can't choose which one was better!) I didn't find ANY flaws in this musical, but still can't decide whether I like it more than Phantom of the Opera or not (NOTHING can or will ever be better than Wicked!) And you better believe that I'm determined to be Elle Woods on Broadway someday (along with Glinda and Adelaide)!
