Wonkette’s Weekend Live Chat Will Give You The Old Razzle Dazzle
We’re first-rate sorcerers here
What better occasion to welcome back Robyn to the live chat but the 25th anniversary of theChicagomusical revival! I worked front of house at the Shubert Theatre during the late '90s and saw the production at least 200 times. That's still not enough. Bebe Neuwirth is a living legend.
Exhibit A:
I'm sorry original cast members Ann Reinking, Bruce Anthony Davis (my personal hero), and John Mineo are not here to celebrate.
Robyn and I might actually discuss more than musical theatre today. You'll just have to watch and find out. The cell block tango kicks off at 12: 30 pm PT/3:30 pm ET. Like, subscribe, share, you know the drill.

You played a Rogue, didn't you?
how much did reading Caesar's orations influence your grandfather, as a boy? there's a chance that was part of his education. let's say it was. was he inspired by that? maybe. maybe not, tho. maybe, like a lot of boys, he completely forgot about it, after he passed the test.
look, i'm an educator by training. if you made me Queen of the World, you damn bet everyone would have one shoved down their brain throats. but i'm not. and i see what is going on, when it comes to the use of pseudohistory. (not saying that's you) people are being led in a direction that prevents them from spending time analyzing a more complex modern situation.
tldr; Nazis aren't really sexy, interesting, or relevant today. too many people forget that.
