Hey. So nothing really exciting. Just a few quick updates. Countdown to Israel: 21 days! But first, Mexico. Yay! Stephy and I are going to see 2 and a Half Jews this weekend on Las Olas. The actors came to our school a few weeks ago and did like a talk back session with the performing arts students. 2 time Tony nominee Bruce Adler along with Len Lesser (Uncle Leo on Seinfeld) is in the cast so that was cool. The week of my return from Israel (May 13th) I'll be seeing Avenue Q! Woop woop! And then... Sweeney Todd (again). Same cast as I saw in January with David Hess as Sweeney and Tony Award winner Judy Kaye as Mrs. Lovett. Oh and one of my fave actresses ever... Lauren Molina as Johanna. This girl is brilliant. And sooooo sweet at the stage door. Looking forward to that with Steph, who I just turned on to Sweeney Todd. What I'm also looking forward to: GYPSY!!!!! My favorite cousins in the world are taking me to see the greatest diva ever, Patti LuPone, in the current revival of Gypsy. Thank you, G-d!! I'm seeing it in June before I'm off to Julliard. BTW, that is going to be the greatest month of my whole life. Musical theatre in NYC for a whole month. WOW. I will def start crying when Patti is working her magic on that stage. She did a concert here in October and I was crying like a baby along with the 1000 other gay men who I quickly befriended. Hehe... But I met Patti after and because got my pic with her in an online magazine. That's the pic in the upper right hand corner. Coolness. Speaking of Patti... I bought the latest Vanity Fair today because it had this whole thing on the queens of comedy: Tina Fey, Sarah Silverman, Amy Poehler etc. and I just happen to be flipping thorugh it getting to the article and who do I see? Patti along with Boyd Gaines and Laura Benanti (another one of my heroes)!!! Cue Broadway spaz that caused my mom to alomost burn herself on the stove. Wow, I just realized this "quick update" is turning into a full length blog. Oh well. :) BTW, school is killing me. Thank G-d I have the amazing ability to memorize musicals just moments after seeing them. So thank you Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter for providing me with entertainment during Science. All right, loves, I think it's time to say good night. So... good night. :)- Alli
