Saturday Matinee

dang it.

the SF “sherry” cast of the national tour of jersey boys aren’t going to stay forever. i was relieved for the sake of my bank account – otherwise i was going to continue to trek out to SF for a long time to continue to go see them. with the second national cast replacing the current cast in a few weeks, i was going to give them about a month or so to get used to performing (the sherry cast also improved a lot from december to feb) before i go to check them out.

but now, with the addition of jeremy kushnier to the cast, that’s definitely not going to happen. he rocked as Roger in Rent and has a spine tingling voice and a heartbreaking commitment to acting the heart out of the role he’s playing. he’s jen’s favorite broadway performer, and jen is picky. ^^ definitely my favorite roger that i’ve seen. I can’t wait to see what he does to the role of Tommy DeVito.

It’s an important day at work today. My professor invited me to join three other professors and him for dinner. I hate shmoozing though, I’m just not very good at it and it’s intimidating company. It’ll be interesting today though.
