As most of my posts begin, here is a *AH SHOOT! WHAT IS THAT CALLED!?!?!? LIKE A FOREWORD...ONLY DIFFERENT!* preface before the rest of the thrilling, thrilling post.
This is Part III. NOT Part II, as some would suggest should rightfully follow the previous Part I. Wellll, no. That's not what is happening. You see, I was making cookies today, listening to Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me**. That is, until it ended. The problem with listening to NPR shows on your IPOD as opposed to the RADIO when they actually air, is that they are SO MUCH shorter without the commercials. The problem was easily fixed by listening to the original broadway cast recording of IN THE HEIGHTS!!!
At this point, vous enfants are likely to scratch thine heads with an odd look and question my sanity. "DORE MIFA!" you will shout, "I was just getting used to the CLEVELAND HEIGHTS cast! The SBL, the HYT gang. WHAT ARE YOU DOING adding a BROADWAY SHOW to this story?!?! Do you think going out of order in your posts will earn you love as it did to countless authors and movie producers?! REALLY?!?!?".
To this, i shake my head. For one thing, when i have the need to blog on something, it MATTERS NOT if i am madly out of order. I will blog. You will deal. :) For another thing, a Broadway Show is always appreciated.
In the Heights is super-duper fly. I'm saying this honestly and happily. It really is! I will reiterate: IN THE HEIGHTS ROCKS MY SOCKS! :)
Moreover, this Lin-Manuel Miranda-created show does not just sound spectacular, the people are really swell too! I know this, not only because i am entirely psychic, but also because i once heard an interview with the orchestrators. They were incredibly fabulous men. IF you are one of those *pffft* Skeptical People, you may look here. ANYONE who ridicules the HSM franchise while simultaneously plugging their show, looking extraordinarily amazing, kicking Zac Shmefron's derierre and RAPPING cannot be bad. Not bad a'tall***. Further proof. And more! PLUS they lovingly**** mock "Legally Blonde: the Musical: the search for Elle Woods: thelongesttitleforarealityshowsinceforever"!
The only exxtreme love i have seen like this, where Broadway Stars show the Public and un-stars and Underlings and Peasants.....aaah, i keep losing my train of thought because first i had to eat a cookie and just now i had to unload the dishwasher and you know how the silverware- the knives in particular- will NEVER get clean?!?? Well its true. Anyway back to your regularly scheduled program: Much Love, is in the case of [Title of Show]. Those kiddies/superhumans had a regular Youtube tv show going for a while! WOO! I love [Tos] lots, too.
In conclusion, i just needed to have a post with innumerable links, lots of HIL-arious Youtube videos and get my SUPERCRAZYHAPPYOBSESSED Musical opinion out there. Trust me, there will be many to follow.
*This, my friends, is a peak into my brain. The insanity behind the...er....genius.
**The NPR show, with Peter Sagal and Carl Kasell. Its absurdly awesome. Keeps me *informed*. :)
***pronounced exactly as it looks: uh-tall.
****You can tell its lovingly, because Seth Rudetsky and a bunch of other LBTMTSFEW cronies are a part of it.
