Kringas' translation is terribly despicable. For if it were true, she wouldn't be so angry all the time...
You really need something like "Escapar de la Gravidad" or "Huir de la Gravidad."
But if you want to convey the same meaning, you would need something like "realizar." If you want to fit the rhythm you could say "Realizándome" (which doesn't really work by itself).
It's not as nice as the English, but you would have to find an idiomatic expression ("frase hecha," not "idioma") for "realizar" and "esc
And obviously SCHICKELGRUBER made it. I wouldn't mind if they cut the MORITAT, ILLUSION WEDDING SHOW, VERY, VERY, VERY, BUDDY ON THE NIGHT SHIFT, and HOSANNAH ROCKEFELLER, as well as some of the Gershwin stuff.
VERY, VERY, VERY seemed, no pun intended, very shoehorned into the show. And the HOSANNAHS were greats in the theatre for those who "got" it. I don't think many did - unless you know the sarcastic nature of them from HAPPY
There are "Good Times" and there are "Bad Times" and then - sometimes - there were bad times on "Good Times" (like when James Evans, Sr. died).

Well, to be fair, Bundy is almost half the age of d'Amboise (give or take some years).
I believe it was best12bars who said it - it's not just the choreography of Music and the Mirror that's killer. It's standing around for all that time before it.

I also noticed the Mark/Mike line missing. I saw the show a week or so before the "original" cast left and Tyler Hanes said the line. When I saw it about a week or so after the new cast took over, the line was no longer there.
Maybe it was just forgotten...
After seeing it again I realized just how much the production will lose once Natalie Cortez is gone.

Careful guys or you're going to put every soap opera out of business.

I can't wait. I waited too long to see it while it was playing off-Broadway and consequently missed it.

That's awesome that you got to meet Little Edie.
I was extremely disappointed, but Corinne Melançon was in. I thought she was fantastic! Her acting was fantastic and the never ending note at the end of WINNER TAKES IT ALL was beautiful. And she looks so much like Meryl Streep.
I actually quite enjoyed the show. I'm actually thinking about going back to catch Carolee sometime (she's one of my favorite performers).
