This is funny. I laughed outloud. So was the last installment, even though inexplicably nobody commented on it.
You should do more. I like musical theater with eggs. Turns out it’s just like bacon.
Siince I still haven’t seen the musical Wicked, the movie was a bit hard to follow at first. Ok, so maybe that’s because I am working with limited creativity in my mind and don’t follow things easily. However, once I realized what was happening… I literally shrieked and started laughing until tears rolled down my cheeks. Thank you for making my day.
The clip was cute; I’ll have to take time to check out the others. BTW, I happen to like the songs that I have heard from “Wicked”. Of course, you may question my taste because I live in the hinterlands where Broadway touring companies rarely make a stop :-). I agree with you about the songs from “Avenue Q”, though; I laugh out loud every time one of them comes up on Accuradio.
Love the egg-crate chorus!
CRACK me up. (har har)
When you think of that in the context of the show, that would totally end the play on a different note. Oops, Elphaba’s dead. Sorry everyone. Go home now.
(I’m torn between Avenue Q and Wicked. I love “Popular” and in the former, “The more you ruv someone” and “Purpose” are both soo lame. Avenue Q is pretty creative and unique, though…I’m just torn. Ack.)
Yay! I love it when food-guy Adam and theatre-guy Adam both come out at the same time. And I’m not making a tasteless joke.
