If you don't want it to be your first Broadway show, and would rather a newer show be your first, then why aren't you seeing a newer show? It's not like it's impossible to get tickets for other shows. Go see something else!

I'm taking my friend to Rent in June. She has never seen it, but has heard the music. We always sing "I'll Cover You" together. I cannot wait to sit next to her and have her cry like a baby on my shoulder. It will be great.

I might go next week for the umpteenth time. There have been a lot of recent cast changes in the past few weeks. Most of them are good. At least, so I hear.

I'm exciting to see Danielle Lee Greaves as Joanne and Kristen Lee Kelly as Mark's Mom. Plus, I LOVE Catrice's "Seasons of Love" solo, it's the closest to Maia Wilson's you can get, and to me, Maia is perfection. But I think I'm going to wait until Joshua Kobak is back in the cast. His Mr. Grey is the best there is.
