Posted: 7/6/05 at 4:11pmBroadwayAbridged is hilarious, and that is one of the funniest ones. And it's frighteningly accurate.

Some of my favorite shows are on broadwayabridged but I think they are hilarious b/c there is truth in all of them.
It's not even mean. It's just poking fun. You would think by now you would be used to FAR worse Wicked bashing.

Um,
I am a pretty big fan of Wicked, and can't help but laugh my head off at that. It is so true...just because you like a show doesn't mean you have to be blind to it's faults.

Posted: 7/6/05 at 4:19pmThe humor gets kind of old. But yes, it is very accurate. The whole audience interaction thing pisses me off. -_- That's not even funny.

The Wicked one is the last good one.
Streetcar, DRS...Piazza - amazingly dreadful.
He should be shot for such crap!

It makes me mad too! And I quote:
And viola, it turns out that he's the Tin Man!
I'm so tired of people saying "viola" instead of "voila"! A VIOLA IS A MUSICAL INSTRUMENT!
[/sarcasm]
It made me laugh though, it's all too true.

I thought the Streetcar one was funny:
John C. Reilly maybe rape Natasha Richardson. Well, only if you feel like interpreting it that way.

So I was sitting in my cubicle today, and I realized, ever since I started working, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day that you see me, that's on the worst day of my life.~Office Space

Posted: 7/6/05 at 4:27pmI found it pretty amusing, too. I don't know, I guess making fun of Broadway only really makes me cackle when it's done in song...

Posted: 7/6/05 at 4:27pmI'm furious. I read it six times and got madder every time. And I emailed it to my friends. I can't believe how pissed off we are. How DARE they point out the enormous gaping problems with the show that we were all far too stupid to notice throughout our multiple viewings of Wicked???????

Posted: 7/6/05 at 4:30pmAt first I found it mean, but some of the lines, especially the one when Norbert asks Joe why he loves Idina, are really funny. It's one of those, "they're laughing with you, not at you", kind of things. And look on the side, they do it with other shows too, not just Wicked.

If it makes you mad, why is it in your signature? Just wondering
PS- I find it hilarious and I love Wicked
"It's really crazy backstage. Just before the show started, Elaine Stritch got into a fight with stage hand, and then inexplicably started squeezing Hugh Jackman's buttocks. And by the time they had sedated her, she had punched out two cops and was holding Norbert Leo Butz hostage, threatening to kill one of his three names." -Nathan Lane

The person who runs BwayAbridged is hysterical and frequently posts here on BWW.

Posted: 7/6/05 at 4:35pmYes, kinda accurate, but didn't think it was funny at all.
(Martha Graham from a letter to Agnes de Mille) "There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening That is translated through you into action, And because there is only one of you in all time, This expression is unique. If you block it, It will never exist through any other medium And be lost. The world will never have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is, Nor how valuable it is, Nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours, clearly and directly, To keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep open and aware Directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open. No artist is pleased. There is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer, divine dissatisfaction, A blessed unrest that keeps us marching And makes us more alive than others."
