The Following Has Spoilers for Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.

[leia131]

I just saw Dirty Rotten Scoundrels at the Flynn.

A brief (spoilery) review of my thoughts:

-It took me a bit to get into it. But it took me a bit to get into Spring Awakening too, and we all know where that went. I started really feeling DRS right around the song about putting a chimp in a suit.

-I'm in love with the song about Oklahoma. (Not a tree or a Jew, to ruin the view...)

-I really, really, REALLY liked the French guy. He was seriously the best part. And the funniest part. And I liked how he did get with the girl.

-I thought I didn't know anything about this musical, but I forgot that Janeea totally told me that the girl was playing them both. I remembered that I knew that partway through Act 2, and I liked it. A lot.

-The girl that played Christine was a bit too nasaly for my taste.

-There were definite Phantom moments. :)

-The set was very sparkly. I approved.

-I can has soundtrack now plz?

For yay!

I only knew this musical existed because of you, and I'd heard a few of the songs before because you'd played them for me, and the whole time I was like... "Where's Janeea? She should be here."

Also, how's Once on This Island and/or Nunsense going? (It was Nunsense, right?)

Once on this Island is brutal, but its going well. My legs hurt more than they have since high school basketball, but the dances are going really well. I think you'll enjoy it. Nunsense is more high school but still a good play. The girls are doing very well, and it rocks. WEE!

MUAH
