I believe that I have jinxed Broadway. I post a blog (when was this, yesterday morning?) and tonight I find out the [Title of Show] is closing?! Um, coincidence? I think not. What we have on our hands here people is a serious case of jinxing. And what I have on MY hands is the blood of a musical. OUT OUT DAMN SPOT.
If you don't know, [title of show] is a musical about two regular guys- Hunter and Jeff- who decide to write a musical, starring them and their "attractive and talented ladyfriends", Susan and Heidi. They end up getting into NYMF and winning some Obies and then Broadway! It's a musical about a musical. Yay!
To be honest, I don't own the OCR, nor have I seen the show but I'm already in love with the cast and the songs and just everything. I was planning on possibly going to see this for my birthday, which is, only naturally, AFTER they close.
Besides the actual show, I always completely fall in love with the story of how they GOT to Broadway, you know? They're not like, Elton John or some Disney spew that got their names up in lights with hardly any work. I mean, these cats were up by me at the Eugene O'Neil Theater Center working their butts off (I live 10 minutes from there: I feel special). And I was so excited for them when they got a theatre on Broadway and when they opened- seriously. I was SO happy for them. I still am happy for them.
Sometimes I feel like if I just freaking went to go see the show like I said I would... but I know my two tickets wouldn't save them. Still, I want to feel like I was at least supporting them. After all, they're everything I would hope to be. Well, at least SOMEBODY made it buddies. I send all my love in the world out to the show. In the mean time... I'll keep [Tos]sing.
