Theatre Survey

Some stranger's blog came through on a Google Alert, and I decided to borrow this survey from them...

List the last 10 things you saw at the theatre in order:
1. Love, Loss, and What I Wore - July cast
2. Next Fall
3. The Winter's Tale
4. Love, Loss, and What I Wore - June cast
5. La Cage aux Folles
6. HAIR
7. Promises, Promises
8. Avenue Q
9. Everyday Rapture
10. White's Lies

Who was the best performer in number one?

The entire cast is a cohesive unit and has wonderful comic timing, but I must bow to Ashley Austin Morris and Myra Lucretia Taylor for cracking me up multiple times with their monologues.

Why did you go to see number two?
I promised my friend Robin that I'd see it.

Can you remember a line/lyric from number three that you liked?

That was my first exposure to The Winter's Tale, if you can believe it, so no, I can't, but I thought it was beautiful -- the ending was so satisfying. I'd see it again, but I need to see The Merchant of Venice first!

What would you give number four out of ten?

Ten out of ten! Fabulous cast! Fabulous show! I may be biased, but there you go! :)

Was there someone hot in number five?

LOL! Um... none was my type.


What was number six about?

Love!

Who was your favorite actor in number seven?
Katie Finneran, who stole the show.

What was your favorite bit in number eight?

All of it! I've seen it eight times, and it still cracks me up. There's always something new to laugh about.

Would you see number nine again?

Well, it closed on Sunday, so that wouldn't be possible... I've listened to "Up the Ladder to the Roof" 32 times on my iPod, so I wouldn't have minded seeing it again.

What was the worst thing about number ten?
I ended up giving my extra ticket away to a stranger, who turned out to be creepy.

Which was best?

The production of The Winter's Tale was free, Shakespeare, random, funny, and moving. Can't beat that.

Which was worst?
N/A. I love theatre.

Did any make you cry?
No... but I don't typically cry at the theatre, and most of these shows were comedies. I can distinctly recall the last time I bawled, and it was at RENT's closing on Broadway.

Did any make you laugh?

All of them did.

Which roles would you like to play in any of them?

I'd play Kate Monster/Lucy T. Slut if I had the right vocal chops, comic timing, and puppet skills.

Which one did you have best seats for?
Avenue Q: Front row orchestra
Next Fall: First row mezzanine
