I like going to Broadway Barks in large part to see Patty Saccente hold the whole thing together with her own two hands

[desertdreamingariver]

I saw it a while ago, but I can’t stop thinking of how hard the pre show music at Oh, Mary goes. The transition from Patti’s Latin from Manhattan into Bernadette’s Chico’s Girl took me out

Remember this?

Bernadette on set of Adam Rifkin’s new movie Last Train to Fortune - March 27, 2023

[desertdreamingariver]

The show was stopped for 25 minutes for them to reset a set piece that didn’t work, and I got to be the subject matter expert for my section about what was wrong lol

Lempicka <3

THEY ADDED BACK THE RAFAELA LINE “That’s what haunting means” at the very end of the show!!!!!

Eden pulling angel cards at Lempicka is so much for me

the way that I have historically been a Carrie Brownstein girl but am fully a Corin Tucker girl starting with this album idk idk

Ben Rimalower is my personal ally for saying to Bernadette that her recording of Johanna is "one of [his] favorite all-time Sondheim recordings" and inciting her to say "the words and the notes of 'I feel you' is so intimate and beautiful"

Ok I saw it this afternoon and want to rescind this in part. Sutton is great. Aaron's acting great, but I despise his voice for this score

Ew to the Sweeney replacement casting rumor

It's been nine months, but the day has finally come.

Amusingly (to me at least) I happened to be at the same play as Ben last night and had the thought that if I was a different person I'd ask when the Bernadette episode was gonna happen.

And re the Rimalower podcast I logically know he won’t get Bernadette but I want it sooo bad :/

My villain origin story is that there’s not a recording of Mary Testa singing the Lorena Hickok songs from First Lady Suite

[desertdreamingariver]

If anyone remembers where Bernadette is trying to remember Laurie Beechman’s name (I think because she’s trying to talk about the theatre but idk for sure) and says like “who was that beautiful girl” just lmk because I can’t think of it and it’ll bother me until I remember :/

This from Carolee when Mary had flubbed a line???

[desertdreamingariver]

I finally got back to see the painting today :)

New favorite video. This to me is everything great about Fran. Like talking about her connection to the piece, going back to childhood, and this confronting idea that she could feel so eager for an experience and these girls she was transfixed by would be having this completely opposite moment.

[desertdreamingariver]

Imagine writing this and thinking that was a bad thing

Hey not trying to be dramatic but was Bernadette in a new black garment last night at Days of Wine and Roses?
