I can imagine it would be hard. Don't you have to purse your lips a special way or it doesn't work?

Ooh, show tunes played by a brass ensemble. Now that sounds cool.

Yes, i agree with all the new musicals there putting on broadway. Addams Family, OK. Wicked, Cool. Shrek the Musical.... Really? Why must they feel the urge to turn Shrek into a musical??

I forgot to mention Chicago. It's one of my favorite musicals and i really like the movie as well. I think they cast the movie very well and i really like it!

[MistersMom]

Im Also a HUGE HUGE HUGE Ballet buff lol

I have tried playing instruments like the piano and violin but it just doesn't work.. My voice teacher keeps saying that i need to learn piano, and I have tried multiple times. But for some reason, it just doesn't make since in my head.

SassyBetta- Haha! I get really excited when I meet people who love theater as much as I do. Even other people that are in the musicals with me aren't as crazy as I am!
I'm studying ballet in dance. I didn't realize how technical it was. The first thing my teacher said to me was that I was standing wrong.

I draw the line at Spiderman. Really, I do. -____- I blame Disney. They started it with Beauty and the Beast. And while B & B and Lion King were awesome, now Disney's musicals are starting to look average, not as spectacular as Lion King was.

Shrek. It's like impossible to reproduce Shrek without Michael Meyers. I mean, I love Brian D'Arcy James (he was the original B'way Shrek) but it's just not the same.

Chicago was great. Cabaret, Steel Pier. Yeah. I miss the good old days of Broadway.

I've been to a few ballets, not many. Rodeo, Macbeth, and uhm . . . something to do with red but I can't remember now. I remember I was surprised at how loud the dancers were when they landed. :) It looks so light and graceful that I forgot it's still a full-grown human coming down, haha.
