I walked with you once upon a dream...

This week's questions were suggested by frieliegh.

1. If you could change one life-changing event in the life of someone important to you, would you?
2. Which do you think is easier to do, being friends for many years, or being life partners for many years?
3. Have you ever walked away from someone you considered a friend?
4. If you had to choose between telling the truth and hurting a friend or lying and making them happy, which would you choose?
5. Which would you rather hear--the truth which will hurt, or the comforting lie?

"He took time out of rehearsal to chat with the Gay & Lesbian Times about the sexually-charged musical, the creative team behind it, and why it may be wise for parents and teens to sit separately when they see the production".

WHO ELSE IS A LITTLE BIT EXCITED FOR BATMAN???

There's an article about Jonathan Groff in the most current issue of Time Out NY. The interview is about the production of Hair.

I don't have access to a scanner, so I can't scan the article, but I'm sure it will be accessible on the Time Out NY website.

The picture makes him look really young, like 16.

Oh, and I just heard that Pippin is going to be revived on Broadway two seasons from now (I'm SO excited about this!), so if we want to campaign to get JGroff cast as Pippin, we should probably start now ;)

Ж-Men...but not the ones you might expect!
This week LJ Russia launched Ж-Men, a new comedy series about superheroes, inspired by the LJ communities dedicated to superheros, comics and cartoons. The title's "Ж" comes from ЖЖ, the nickname for LiveJournal in Russia.

Ж-Men's script is written by a group of LJ enthusiasts who also happen to be television professionals. Who knew? Following the premiere, five more episodes will be broadcast over the next two weeks. We hope you find the series fresh and enjoyable.

This is, of course, an experiment for LiveJournal. As always, we'd love to hear what you think!

Okay, so not SA, but since we're pimpin' Mr. Groff:


FARRAGUT NORTH
World Premiere
by BEAU WILLIMON
directed by DOUG HUGHES

Stephen (John Gallagher, Jr.) is a wunderkind press secretary who has built a career that men twice his age would envy. During a tight presidential primary race, however, Stephen's meteoric rise falls prey to the backroom politics of more seasoned operatives, and his one night stand with a teenage staffer proves to be more complicated than casual. Farragut North is a classic tale of hubris set against a contemporary landscape - about the lust for power and the costs one will endure to acheive it.
