Gotta love Barry Bostwick!

Surprised they added Max and Laura to Grease but not complaining.

I have a cat named Bostwick. I'll bet you can't guess who he was named for! I fell in love with Barry Bostwick when he starred in the George Washington miniseries......way back when. I'm glad he introduced the GREASE performance. It was great! Now I'm really bummed that I can't make the trip to see the show this summer!

They were great last night. I was so happy they did a group performance! It is so fun to watch Max dancing....he is totally a natural. I was looking for Allie, but couldn't quite pick her out. Was she in that performing group?

I do have a question though...I know "Grease is the Word" was changed to include Max and Laura, but did anybody notice when Max was singing the first part you could hear another T-Bird singing with him, then it suddenly stopped? I wonder if it was a boo boo, especially since they are used to doing it the other way.

Laura also amazes me everytime I see her do those kicks! I don't think they will find another Sandy who will fit into her tiny little pants!!!

I totally forgot Christian was designing Whoopies gown. I usually like him, but IMO and in his own words, that dress was a hot tranny mess.

In fact I loved the whole show.  Although Whoopie's ruffles were a bit much.



She's always a bit much!   She is one of my favorite people.    I was heartbroken when her sitcom got cancelled... can't remember the name right now.

Yeah, what was that show? She is hilarious yes. Although I can't watch her on the View because the rest of them annoy me so much. Well Joy's kinda funny, but Barbara and Elisabeth....yuck.

I looked it up.   No wonder we couldn't remember the name.   It was called Whoopi!    I thought it was hilarious.    Some people don't like her, and I can understand why, but I do.

I noticed the kicks too. I can't imagine being that limber, I'd wouldn't be able to walk for a week if I tried that. Incredible! weirdface.gif

I think the end of May? If you go to page 2 of the threads, there is a thread about her joining the cast of Grease.

Yes, I think the additional voice distracted from Max's performance.  I think it definitely was a mistake!  That was too bad for Max.  I think it flustered Max for a moment.  He recovered nicely though, and his dancing was great!

I'm sure the new Sandy will have to have new pants made.biggrin

Very small pants!

I thought I heard that. At least the camera was focused on Max and you couldn't see the other person singing. I'm sure it's confusing when you do it 8 times a week, and then have to change it up one time.
