Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

My Listing (It will include some off broadway...)
1. The Wedding Singer (all time favorite, best time I have had in theatre in 10 years)
2. Grey Gardens
3. The Last 5 Years
4. Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
5. Rent (I have been playing this cd for almost a decade, ouch!)
6. Evil Dead: The Musical (give these people credit, I have never seen so many younger guys flocking to go see a show with me EVER! this is a great thing, and very entertaining)
7. See What I Wanna See (OMIGOD, it was incredible)
8. Wicked
9. Title Of Show (cute, cute cute)
10. High Fidelity (simply bc the music had me going in my seat: NUMBER 5 WITH A BULLET!!!!)
So there it is, I think I almost listed more off broadway than on, but that is how the dice falls for me :)
I made a list of all your faults, it was quite detailed and lengthy too and when I read it through I missed you. Your like a classic Eagles song, you just cant help but sing along even though it sometimes gets annoying too. I just know I want to be wherever I can wake and see you there next to me. **High Fidelity**
Love is what I do **The Wedding Singer**

bigbigbill ...
you are probably the only person on this board that thinks all shook up is a great show. its a dumb show made of cardboard boxes, cheap props, and a dumb plot.
evidently you have no taste in musical theater because if you did you wouldnt think all shook up is AMAZING!
k?
thnx.
bye!

Same could be said for your love of Wicked and Beauty and the Beast...seeing as how many people here hate both.
It's their own favorite...thus it's their own personal taste. [ETA] You should know that, seeing as how you wrote that in your post.
How to properly use its/it's:
Its is the possessive. It's is the contraction for it is...
