I'm going out for a local community theater production of a show called "Urinetown The Musical". Anyone ever hear of it? It's VERY funny.

Lol, yeah, kinda hard to forget a title like "Urinetown" haha.
Anywho, I got a part: I'm Cladwell, the villian.

The villain parts are always the best. You can go a little more "over the top" and the parts are the most fun. Good luck with it.
I've been away from the theater for a long time. Kinda miss it. Then again, I'm "on stage" often enough.

I've got this great song late in the first act called "Don't Be The Bunny". It is such a fun song to sing, because it's just so twisted & clever. I'm really liking this show so far.

Just to give ya guys an update, the show's coming along relatively well, we're having problems with people keeping up with the "Act One Finale"'s breakneck-speed tempo, but, hey, we still got a few weeks left lol.

If "YSU" is the one I think it is, then I work in your area. Haven't seen any news on the play. How's it going...or how did it go?

No, YSU is where I USED to go lol. I don't live in that area anymore, unfortunately. We open in 2 weeks & I think it's actually gonna come together lol.

Guess I'm going to miss that opening, then. Actually, I don't live in the area, either. I have to drive out of N.W. Pa. to get to work. Have a couple of music majors as students from the college. Like the job, hate the commute. In the area where I live, there are two things a white, middle-aged, male are forbidden to have: a job and a date (as in GF).
Keeping a good thought for the success of your production.

Hey, thanks, man! Yeah, N.E. Ohio is where I'm originally from. In fact, YSU (the school I'm a fan of lol) did this show back in November, but I didn't get to see it. There's a bootleg of it on YouTube somewhere, I'm told...

Gave a cursory search but found nothing; typical for me - I can google "Raquel Welch" images and get a nice pic of "Granny" from The Beverly Hillbillies. Just bad at searches.
I'll keep an eye peeled; will be interested in how things go.

Just thought I'd update here... The show went over really good, despite me having almost no voice by the last night lol.

What's the show about? You said there is a villain, so I'm guessing there is a superhero or something.

Part of the reason the show went so well is that you gave it your ALL; so, of course, you'd have little voice left for the last night (but I'd bet you still kicked just fine).
So glad to hear your good news. So...what's next?
