a place where nobody dared to go...

kate's here...still at the airport though. sweet.

sooo...saturday night at midnight i headed down to the east village/soho area to see the brillant movie 'xanadu' with my fellow fanadu (what fans of the broadway show are called...sad, right?) ariel. the crowd was a nice size and very enthusiastic, especially during the animated sequence, crazy dance numbers, and awkward lines. god, so much fun.

funky fresh.

p.s. i need to find my camera so i can have physical documentation of all things.

wild'n'out with bobby kennedy!

so. my life. doing nothing...but....

i got an internship with the Bernard Telsey Casting Agency!! they're they largest and probably most important agency in the city casting shows like the color puple, the drowsy chaperone, rent, hairspray, legally blonde and more as well as many many films (the upcoming sex and the city) and tv shows. it's full-time, unpaid, and for three months, but it can lead to an employment opportunity afterwards. i'll also be working with the biggest casting directors and directors in the business and they'll get to know me and what a wonderful person i am. i'm very excited to start in two weeks. *happy dance*

today i had my interview and then i went window shopping to kill time/plan outfits for work. it's a very casual office, but i'm sure i'll bring some major style to the office. then i visted dear shauna o'b in the bklyn. we worked on my hairs, explored the internets, and watched bobby. let me tell you....the makeup/costumes were so good. the movie had waaaaaaay too many forced "moments." still, fun was had.

kate is here next week. we plan on seeing shows, drinking, and having all the fun. i'm excited. bachelorette extreme!

evil....and imaginary

i want to post pictures of my life so far in the city.


ariel, audra mcdonald, and me. if you don't know who she is. SHAME ON YOU. youtube her. seriously. amazing voice. we had just witnessed her breath-taking performance in 110 in the shade. you all will soon know her as the black chick on that gray's anatomy spin off. broadway mourns her loss.


me and xanadu star kerry butler. normally, i hate her. she's magic in the show. though she totally looks like a random wise county mom in her 40s after the show. this saddens me because she' 30 and from new york. tsk tsk...


cheyenne jackson, me, and ariel. i'm in love with this man. so talented and good-looking it's sickening. love him.


me and lauren at the midnight showing of the delightfully amazing hairspray film at the amazing zeigfeld theatre on 54th street. the current broadway cast's chorus was there with smuggled wine. they were awesome and my new heros.


basically the greasted photo ever taken of me drunk at a gay bar at 3am in the east village after this nasty guy hit on me and both my roomate (one of which is female) while watching nasty gay porn and a gogo boys....yeah.

taffeta darling.

alright. i copied amber. such is life. she's the ultimate trendsetter. next thing you know all the celebrities will be copying her.

i like this layout. it reminds me of lite brite. which reminds me of the hairspray set. whatev.

my days now consist of watching tv, sleeping, auditions (and sleeping through auditions), and walking around new york.

so you think you can dance? summer obsession. neil won't win, but he's got some mighty fine tricks and jumps. and i want his hair, so shauna might have to rehighlight my hair.

lacey and danny just waltzed to an avril lavinge song. that's classy. she's a classy lady. it's a nice routine though. i'm a sucker for waltzes and spins and lacy is a spinner.

i'm basically spending hours a day waiting for the young frankenstein musical to come to new york. it's getting strong buzz in seattle and the pictures look great. i'm a dork and spend waaaaay too much time watching/listening to/reading about musical theatre. for example i spent a good hour or two watching youtube clips of andrea mcardle (the ORIGINAL annie from the late 70s) recreating her performance on the rosie o'cruise this past summer. her belting is amazing. yes, it's annie, but i'm impressed she can get those top notes out without blowing out her chords. woman needs to be a bigger star.



yes, that's megan mullally as elizabeth and roger bart as frederick frankenstein. perfection. more fantastic production photos can be found here.

i promise one day i'll have a hobby not broadway related. sheesh.

out.
