This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Clearly! Can we be painkiller buddies, too? 'Cause I'ma go find me some. Man, and last week I killed my head ducking into the car... it was like the weather stripping grabbed on to my hair and pulled my scalp up from my skull or something. Still kind of tender a week later. Maybe I need the bubble wrap I'm always trying to push off onto you.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I went to see A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum at the Model Secondary School for the Deaf tonight. It was pretty cool. The actors all signed, with a voice interpretation. Some of the songs were done with the voice interpreter speaking, and for some they played the CD of the Broadway recording. They cut at least three songs -- Free, Why Does He Look at Her That Way, and Pretty Little Picture. The opening "Comedy Tonight" was spoken, and slowed down a whole lot -- I'm guessing they wanted to make sure there was space to get in the whole lot of explanatory stuff that's shoved into that song. The ending "Comedy Tonight" was at regular speed, with the music.
The girl playing Pseudolus was really good. Just captivating to watch. The staging of "I'm Calm" and "That Dirty Old Man" were both really great, matching the pace and rhythm of the signing to the rhythm of the songs.
The only bit that I thought just didn't work at all was when the captain is first entering with the "Left, right, left, right, there's none of the enemy left, right?" "Right! Left, ri...uhhh." There's just no way to make that joke work in any language where the words for "right" as in the direction and "right" as in correct are different.

Hey. New board.
Tonight was kind of a celebrity-centric night for me. Saw Pygmalion with Claire Danes (really liked it, Jefferson Mays is brilliantly childish as Higgins, and Danes really pulls off Eliza), and then walked right past her as she collected cash for Broadway Cares: Equity Fights Aids. She seemed very pretty, though wearing stage makeup and a wig so who can really tell anyway? Definitely tiny, though - 5'3" max and EXTREMELY thin, which really puts in perspective how small most actors are. Very smiley and polite, though, as she collected for charity. I dug her, but didn't talk to her at all.
Then, saw Ethan Hawke at the very theater-y bar I always go to after my Friday shows. He was there for some special dinner thing, probably related to the new show he directed. He had a group of people around him and was talking very animatedly about... something. Which I think is his thing - I've seen him around, as he's definitely been theater-centric over the last year, and that's always the case. I get the feeling he's a little narcissistic, but also ridiculously smart. I think he'd be fun to talk to.
Then, my favorite Elphaba ever, Kristy Cates was at The After Party for the umpteenth time, and we actually talked a bit! She agreed to come talk at my school. Which is awesome.
