Yea! Congrats to him!
And nice to see you.

Bumping this thread in hopes that DA is subscribed and will come back and give us an update on his son.
After my year at the NY Film Academy next year, It would be amazing to get to meet and work with DA's son!

You've decided to go? I knew you were contemplating it, but didn't realize you had made your decision.  That's awesome, AF. I hope you have a blast!

Yep...I'm off to see the Wizard! Excited as can be, but nervous too. I'll probably have 10 years on most of my classmates (although I honestly don't look it, and I'm not telling...). I have several dance classes to pass, and I'm hoping they'll let me throw in another in lieu of taking music theory for the bajillionth time.

Hi again. It's been a while. Just saw the son in a musical review in Florida cast in NY.
But the news is that Andy Kelso, a high school classmate of our two daughters has just been cast in the national tour of Wicked.
He was Sky in Mama Mia on Broadway a few years ago.
Everybody take care.

Hi, DA! Glad to see you back (although I know it's very temporary, which I have issue with, but what can I say). Good to hear your updates, and that's exciting that your daughters' classmate is in the national Wicked tour.

I just saw Wicked on Broadway for the first time tonight (I've seen it three times now, but only this time on Broadway), and it was soooooo good. Donna Vivino was called in apparently to play Elphaba (she wasn't listed as an understudy), and she was amazing...just like the second time I saw the show (total coincidence that I've seen her in the role two out of three times). I wasn't crazy about Fiero in this production, but then I don't think I've ever loved any Fiero.

Saw "Love Never Dies" (Phantom Sequel) on TV yesterday. I can see why it's been nicknamed "Paint Never Dries". The score seemed closer musically to Les Mis than Phantom. One thing that ALW NAILED in the original was the recurring musical themes that drilled the melodies into your head. There was none of that, and so many missed opportunities to bring back hints of those melodies. Example: there was a monkey with cymbals on stage for a brief period - couldn't we have had a least a hint of "Masqurade"?
The costumes and sets were by far the best part. I also loved the actress that played Meg...beautiful voice and she was able to move gracefully through the dramatic acting range that role requires.

LOL.
Of course, that was always my feeling about "Phantom."

So true
The musical bored me to death, couldn't last first 3 songs. Unfortunately I saw it in London and didn't come back for the 2nd half.

My daughter is loving NYC and is taking full advantage of her easy access to Broadway. She got student rush tickets for Once and "had" to go see Porgy & Bess with a class.
And she got to meet Audra McDonald, Norm Lewis and Steve Kazee.
