Saw Bombay Dreams Tuesday night. OK, but not great.

The kid was great as Tin Man. Lots of fun. Good reviews.

Now they do Millie and Sweet Charity -- then probably off to NY to see if this can really be a career.

ETA Saw Bombay Dreams the same day the terrorist bombs hit Bombay. No reflection on the musical.

Saw The Producers last night. Loved it.

It is a funny show! I really liked it, too.

A kid from our middle daughters class in high school was one of the Nazi's in the movie. Now, he's in Mama Mia in NYC.

I keep mentioning these things in hopes that some of this will rub off on the son...

A not so secret agenda.

Brilliant!

I just read a story on MSN that said Andrew Lloyd Webber is reviving "The Sound of Music" and the actress that he wanted to play Maria turned it down, so now they're doing a Reality show called "How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria?" to find the next Maria. I'm pretty much over the whole reality thing...but how cute is that name for that show?? The winner will get a 6-month West-End contract.

I would have posted the article, but it was more about Scarlett Johanssen turning down the role then the reality show. It's on MSN's front page, under entertainment, if anyone cares to find it.

The Sound of Music was on Broadway 9 years ago. I saw it with my mom. It was pretty cute but it got bad reviews and was cancelled pretty quickly.

See that would be one reality show I would totally want to go for. I can sing, but there is no way I'd want to do American Idol. I'm much more of a musical freak, and I can belt those type of songs much better than rock/pop songs.

I'm surprised that The Sound of Music got bad reviews. It seems odd to me b/c it was a revival and I guess I don't get how a revival of a musical that has received wonderful reviews and spawned a movie could get horrible reviews.
