Theater is my life. My very first Broadway show was Cats in 4th grade. Since then I've also seen Titanic the Musical, Phantom of the Opera 4x, Les Mis 4x, Wicked, Jersey Boys, and Shrek the Musical. I hope to see Lion King, Mary Poppins, and Little Mermaid before I move.

I also was involved with all 4 musicals while in HS. Theater rules!

Mary Poppins is SO COOL. I absolutely loved it when I went to see it. Lion King as well. And I looooove Les Mis. YAY theatre!!

Ha has what do we need in life? Disney, theatre, annnnd DS.

i am so jealous! that would have so amazing to get to go backstage! i love seeing how things work like that

It was very cool. I actually also nannied for a little girl that was playing Young Cosette (u/s Young Eponine, Gavroche) in Les Mis, so I got to go backstage there as well. They let me go down in the little trap door they have on the stage. It was kind of creepy.. like a coffin-ish elevator, ha ha.

Ah! Excellent! I couldn't live without them either. I actually lived in NYC for 3 years (and visited every year before that) so I've seen a lot of shows (multiple times, lol). I looove them. Wicked is pretty cool! One of my friends was friends with the security guard there so he walked us into the show (for free, we sat in these chairs at the back of the house by the soundboard) and then afterwards we got to go backstage and stuff. It was pretty cool!

That is so cool!

[taigirl87]

It's the greatest musical ever! LoL

no...what is it like?

 

[jellipop]

no...what is it like?

::gasps:: it's only the most amazing piece of random EVER!

It's about a wannabe Supervillan trying to make it in the world but his plans always get thwarted by Captain Hammer! And when Captain Hammer "saves" Dr. Horrible's love interest and his plans are foiled once again he plans to take the ultimate revenge....

and it's such a funny musical and the music is fun and silly...very singalongable!

And the DVD features "COMMENTARY! the MUSICAL!" which is equally as amazing...songs like why Neil (Dr. Horrible) isn't as cool as Nathan (Captain Hammer) and such. It's amazing.

The link on top, click it, you can even watch it there!!

30. Anything else you want to state:

This is really not a good thing at all, but my parents don't know I'm planning on doing the CP. Originally I was supposed to go to London next semester but the school has all but told me that I'm too young and have to be in school longer (in hours I'm a second semester sophomore, but in actual school time I'm a second semester freshman.) Now I've made up my mind to go to London fall semester junior year and I'm going to do the CP fall next year.
My parents have already told me that I can't do both - my schedule (anthropology major, chemistry/spanish double minor, pre-med, and I'm in the honors program at my school which has its own classes and curriculum) is too demanding (they say). Essentially I'd be doing all this and graduating in 3 years, although the study abroad will fill 4 classes in my major. I realize this is super tough, but with med school and becoming a doctor I will never get the chance to study in London or work at Disney ever again. I say that if I'm prepared to work hard and get everything I want to do in, then I should. And it's my choice, not my parents'. I've never gone up against them like this before, but I'm a big kid now and they can't stop me.

If you read that whole thing, you are a saint. I just don't really have anyone to talk to about this right now, so it's great even to just put it out there to an obscure Internet audience. I'm going to explain this to my parents this weekend as I am going home. It's just not a phone conversation.

And please please please don't let my sob story make you turn and run! I am a wonderful roommate, I promise! Mostly because I sleep through absolutely anything. I have 3 roommates right now and they could (hopefully) tell you wonderful stories about me (falling off of things).
Have a magical day!

oh man! that must be hard! my parents have known about me wanting to do cp for a long while! my dad wasnt so hot about it at first, but i think he is okay now, since he knows its something that i really want to do! just explain everything and dont let them get you down about it! besides, if i were your parents, i think id rather have my daughter going to florida instead of out of the country! lol

OMG thats NOT lame at all. That is amazing. I may or may not have videos of some shows. I'll have to make sure I bring them with me.

yes! you should! does anyone have little shop of horrors? the movie version...i love that show and it should be brought!

 

[Jelliebean]

yes! you should! does anyone have little shop of horrors? the movie version...i love that show and it should be brought!

I do! I have the movie version and a video of the stage show, ha ha.

 

[rachaelfig]

I totally skipped the movies/music section! As it turns out I love musicals. Also, Coldplay, the Fray, Maroon 5, Jack's Mannequin, and Jason Mraz. Basically the Top 40 hits that play on my radio station all the time. It makes them easier to learn.

As for movies, I enjoy them. Especially musicals, Disney movies, and Slumdog Millionaire. I actually like TV shows better than movies. I tend to get very involved in stories and movies end too quickly. Right now my shows are Chuck, House, Bones, Doctor Who, Supernatural, and the Office. I love love love game shows and I'm very good at Jeopardy, Cash Cab, and Family Feud. PS. Dr Horrible is so awesome!

As for my parental situation, my only worry is that they're going to talk me out of this. We have such a great relationship that we've never fought about anything before and so I guess this was just a long time coming. But they don't have to pay for it and I retain all my scholarships so there really isn't a problem.

Don't let me cave guys! I want to go to Disney so badly!

those bands are awesome! my favorite band is the academy is...(hence my name ha ha) does anyone know them? i also love the rocket summer and we the kings those are my top three! and the office rocks! i feel behind though cuz i dont have tv channels on my tv, cuz we have to pay or tv. it sucks. oh and also... do you like lost? or does anyone else? its my favorite right now! i am an addict! ha ha.

if you have a good relationship with your parents then they should be understanding, and dont let them talk you out of it! you will regret that someday!

 

[rachaelfig]

I've heard of those bands! Perhaps I shall give them a listen.

I used to love Lost, watched the first 2 seasons religiously, but then I kept missing episodes and stopped, so as not to get lost (get it, haha). They just keep piling up in my DVR which is at home sooo.. not helpful. I mostly watch online television through the stations' websites, which is nice. That way I'm not limited to a TV screen at 9:00 on a Wednesday evening.

 

[jellipop]

Thats sounds amazing! I think I'm gonna watch it! lol

The DVD is so coming with me! i can watch it over and over LOL
