    I read her book "The Creative Habit" - it was a required book that assigned over a christmas break for all 4 years of classes at acting school. we then had a "Town Hall" discussion about it.

    I remember being a sophomore and standing up in front of all these talented (and older)) students and teachers and saying "I just think she has OCD." #twylatharp

    Agh, the "sleep when you're dead" school.
    I love her - I mean, the woman practically still has a 180-degree extension - but New York was a different city when she first got here.

    I really do think women have even more obligations now than they did in the 60s and 70s. Especially creative women -- we're not really even "supposed" to be doing that stuff in the first place. #twylatharp

    @prismatism: Seriously. I've been postponing my reading for 2 hours. If I got my reading done, I would actually have time to practice piano--true passion of mine.

    I'm taking notes Twyla! #twylatharp

    How does The Phantom of the Opera appeal to the masses of tourists? I'm not implying it's particularly high-brow, but it's not exactly The Lion King either (before you give me crap, I'm going on face appeal to tourists).

    Anyway, I'm missing the point, which is that Sylvia Bailey is adorable and that snippet and accompanying pic warmed up the cockles of my icy, icy heart a bit, before I have to go out into a frigid fall day, and for that I am grateful.

    @Snooties McSnooties: It's spectacle. Big pretty sets, a large chorus, snazzy costumes.

    Damnit-- that show could be fabulous if not for Andrew Lloyd Weber.

    Aw, I love old theater nerds. I aspire to be one myself. My boy took me to see Phantom last Valentine's Day, because he is a giant theater nerd, and has seen the show like six times.

    It's one of the many things I love about him.

    That sounds like a confession! Is Sylvia Bailey, herself.... THE PHANTOM OF THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA?

    One year, the FF staged a musical about the Renaissance. I saw it. Like the Citizen Ruth musical, I couldn't tell if it was the greatest or the worst idea of all time. In hindsight, I still cannot decide. I think the FF specializes in that kind of theatre.

    And...I know a guy in the I Can Haz Cheezburger musical.

    LOL?

    Hey, I'm sure the first marketing pitch for Sweeney Todd sounded strange, too. "And this barber, see, he lives in London at the turn of the 20th century, and he lives above this woman who makes meat pies, and the barber, see, he kills all these guys, cuts their throats in the barber chair, and then the lady makes pies out of the dead....AND IT'S A MUSICAL."

    I've got money saying that they'll wind up casting Norbert Leo Butz as Noah, and Laura Bell Bundy or Lea Michele (Glee pending) as Allie.

    Anyone want to take those odds?

    I declare the musical to be dead. After Legally Blonde, and this, I will kill it myself. It will be a mercy killing. You've had a good run.
