It's no secret how much I love Cannibal! The Musical. It started in college when I worked in the photo/video check-out area. The photo guy and I would watch it every Saturday morning and serenade everyone with "Let's Build a Snowman" or "Shpadoinkle" on a regular basis. Now, I have the DVD, I watch it on Netflix all the time, I know all the songs and "Shpadoinkle" is one of my ringtones.
I could keep going on about how much I love anything Trey Parker does (including South Park, Team America, Orgazmo, etc...) but I'll stop here because the biggest thing for me was having TheBook of Mormon be my first ever live show. That's right! The Book of Mormon was my FIRST EVER live show and I LOVED every minute of it!!
I was trying really hard to contain my excitement because I didn't want to look like a total spazz at the theater but it was tough! The opening number was fabulous and I wanted to give every number a standing ovation. They were just so wonderful! I highly recommend seeing this show if you haven't already!
Here are a few videos from around the web of my favorite performances. Enjoy!
So Glee is going on hiatus after tonight's episode (*sad face*). I guess my subconscious mind knew that and that's why I had the most Glee-ful dream ever last night! I was sitting down for an interview with Chris Colfer because I was doing a piece about him for E! News (lol WTF?) and we were talking about singing (naturally) and acting and all that other good stuff and out of nowhere, we burst out into song. But because I was reading Cast Member Confidential most of the afternoon yesterday, they were Disney songs. There were such great hits as Once Upon A Dream, Circle of Life, Under the Sea and others but the one that stuck out was Part of Your World - especially this part:
I wanna be where the people are I wanna see, wanna see them dancin' Walking around on those - what do you call 'em? Oh - feet!
It was great! We had our "diva arms" and grand gestures and we danced around each other as if we had been rehearsing for months, when it was all improvised - like in musicals! The crew loved it, of course! I'm sure that would've been the best feature on E! News EVER! But the best part was that right before I woke up, there was one more song left on our set... We dramatically and enthusiastically sang the theme from Laverne and Shirley, making it the most grand finale of the whole set of songs we sang together and I woke up in the greatest mood ever! And, of course, I had to @Reply him on Twitter while I tweeted about it! I'm sure the Glee finale will be as grand as ever and I can't wait for it to come back as soon as possible! Inspirational song for the day:
