DRS Tour!

http://www.playbill.com/news/article/97416.html

YES. And I've also heard some almost-true rumours about the touring of Light in the Piazza. Saving money...

DRS was an amazing musical... I liked it so much more than Wicked. It was my kind of musical.

Yay! Light in the Piazza is going to start touring because it is coming to Sacramento some time between the end of the year or next year.

Yeah... but didn't that show like sick. Isn't it like leaving Broadway cuz nobody wants to see it with a new cast?

It's coming to LA in Aug. I believe, all I know is that it's something before I leave in Sept.

I nearly fainted when I found out that Norbert is doing the tour.
Seeing it went from a "maybe" to a "definately"

I just saw it today it was so funny I was laughing the whole time. Norbert Leo Butz was really good in it.

Darn, I can't see it. The summer stock season* will finish the week I leave, and then the tours come so darn, oh well. Though I want to hear your opinions on the new song that replaced the first one.


*Califorina Musical Theatre runs a summer stock season during the summer, and then they present the touring shows on a regular stage.

I wish Lithgow was touring but Hewitt is a good consolation prize.

Yay.. I'm excited.

<3 Norbie!

Saw it last night. My best friend and I went down and did student rush in the middle of the storm. The theatre was pretty emtpy.

A hilarious show, if not the best. And lots of fun. I don't understand why they replaced the original number, either...? The acting wasn't the best, but that was partly because I kept comparing the leads to Norbert and Sherie, which is unfair. Muriel was fabulous, and Freddie was pretty good. And the singing, especially Laura's, was fantastic.
Salome

and not even Tom Hewitt can be as good as Lithgow in the lead.
Bianca.

I wish I could have seen it on broadway...

Maybe not, but I thought he did a fine job. Singing was definately a strong point throughout.
