mapyAs I was watching this fabulous opening number by Neil Patrick Harris (gay boyfriend of my dreams <3) at the Tony awards:
I ended up asking myself: why the hell have I never seen a broadway show in New York? I mean, I've been to NY: what was I thinking, NOT going to see it there?
I saw "The Lion King" at La Place des Arts last year, and that was fucking awesome. I've never seen "Wicked", what's up with that? And never seen "The Phantom of the Opera" (I know, emef, you hate that show^^) even though I enjoyed the tunes so much in my youth (wow, now I feel old.)
So how about I do that for my birthday this year? I'm sure my sisters would be down with that.
IN OTHER NEWS:
My friend Ary made me watch "The Room", written by/produced by/starring Tommy Wiseau.
Oh-my-fucking-God. It was the most amazingly BAD movie I've ever seen. I think I wanna watch it again, just in case I imagined how bad it is!
Are there any showings in Montreal? Apparently, in the US, there are showings where people dress up as the characters, throw footballs at each other and laugh loudly everytime Johnny laughs.
That sounds like a fucking great evening, does it not?
Also, if you haven't seen it, write to me so I can watch it with you, and play a drinking game at the same time (for every time someone says "Oh hai!")
Oh Tommy! You are such a genius.
