I went to see Young Frankenstein on Broadway on Saturnday night... i have to admit that they did the damn thing justice...

one of my all-time favorite movies on the stage was just awesome... although this is a musical it was still a great show... a lot of the same jokes from the movie...

if you live in NY or are planning a trip, go see the show.

    Thanks for the heads-up. I'm a Broadway fiend and this one has been on my radar for a while (since it was in previews, in fact). What else is looking good?

    GF and I went to see Cymbeline last week. Wasn't bad, but I wouldn't bust down the door to see it!

    Cymbeline isn't my fav of the Bard's works. What about the new King Lear? Ian MacKellan is Lear, I think.

    I think that run is over. You're talking about the one at BAM, right? Tickets were impossible on that bastard! Wish I would've went!

    I heard tix were a bitch. I'd have loved to have seen it, too. He's perfect for that role.

    I used to get to NYC about twice a year, but I haven't been for over a year now. It's driving me crazy!

    Wicked is my current fav! Poor Tybird had to listen to "Defying Gravity" last night...for the 100th time. I have Spam-a-lot tix for the touring company, would have loved to have seen it in NYC with the original cast.
