Jul. 1st, 2015 12:20 pmArgh, so I had heard the people who are doing the Cruel Intentions Musical Parody (dammit, why haven't they come out with a cast recording yet, their FB page said "stay tuned!" when someone asked, but that was last month!) were doing a one night only musical version of the OC in August. I was disappointed that I wouldn't be able to see it, since its all the way in LA. But I just saw today that they cast Autumn Reeser (who played Taylor on the show, one of my top 5 fictional crushes) as Julie Cooper, and now I'm even sadder that I'm missing this. If only I was filthy rich, I'd totally be all, "Screw it!" and fly to LA for the weekend just to catch this.
(Is it sad that people dream of seeing sites in far off lands, or going on crazy adventures like para-sailing or mountain climbing, and if I had the time and money, I'd prolly just want to go see musicals?)
In any case,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
clevemire said if its one night only (which having listened to the Dreamgirls soundtrack recently, now I have that song ear wigged) maybe they'll film it. Which made me think, maybe they did film that special version of Rent NPH did a few years ago in LA. I mean, a cursory google did lead me to a vid of La Vie Boheme from that performance. I also forgot since its a redo of the musical, their version has extra verses not in the movie version.
I do prefer the movie version better, since its a little tighter, I think it flows a little better. Like the Glee version of Cell Block Tango. Well, the full Glee version, not the one on the show, because the televised version is even shorter. But yeah, the Glee version just does the first three murderesses and they're done. The full version of the real song from Chicago is just too damn long. And starts to get all weird and excessive after the first three chicks, Glee was right to trim it down.
