I have absolutely no memory of the story line. I remember a bit of the title song. Never has a show left so little an impression on me. But it didn't have anything to do with the show; I was probably in the midst of some teenage angst.

It is the musical version of the play TWO FOR THE SEESAW about the married lawyer haivng the affair with the young dancer.

Got a jump start on my weekend Bollywood movie...KABUL EXPRESS (2006). This was India's entry for consideration for the Oscars...and it was a pretty good movie...

...it is about 2 Indian journalists in Afghanistan who hire an Afghan to help take them to a place where they hope they can meet and interview a Taliban fighter. Along the way they hook up with a female American photo-journalist and a Pakistani Talib who takes the group hostage and forces them to drive him to the border. The movie spends 2 days with this group of 5.

This is one of the rare Indian films without any musical numbers...however there is still a soundtrack album (none of the songs are actually featured in the movie, however) but in the extras it has John Abraham and one of the other leads doing a music video to one of the songs.

I don't know DR Edisaurus, but I will say that I would like to see George Clooney in something, as well!

And, of course, your watching the movie would have nothing to do with John Abraham.

I also agree about DR Cason being huge someday! I really wish there had been some agents at the play, because I am positive Cason would have been snapped up! He really is that good...and he seems to have a level head on his shoulders, also, which should get him far in life!

Well of course not...you know me TCB,  I am a student of quality film making. I hardly even noticed that John Abraham was in it...(that is why I had to get out my glasses.)

I also liked the woman who played "Joyce" and the man who played "Fred" -- heck, I enjoyed almost everyone in the show!

Me too Laura...I even liked the General (just don't tell BK!)

But Cason and the silent soldier (Efrem Sanchez, I think was the actor) were the two who impressed me the most..oh, and the gal who played the daughter (whose name is totally escaping me right now...I am too sleepy).

And John Gavin was the lawyer and Tommy Tune the dancer?

I think I would have remembered that!

I liked the General, too. At first I thought, WTF?? But his performance grew on me.

And I LOVE Egbert!

I loved the Brain, too!  Those 3 aliens were the scene stealers for sure in my humble opinion...the general had his moments, but I know how it drives directors nuts when you have a loose cannon on stage (I saw the Brain three times that weekend, and the guy was throwing a lot of stuff in there, some stuck, some didn't so I can see why bk wanted to "brain" him -- espeically if he asked him to stop it -- the guy pulls that on a professional stage and his understudy's gonna love him)

Speaking of our GM, he must have gone to the House of Pies (or some food establishment) after the play -- the witching hour is close at hand and no sign of our fearless leader...

Hello from Oz.  Guess I was still logged on earlier.  I so often forget to leave! A dreadful guest at parties. (OK I loathe parties and I am always a Guest).

The General's performance grew on me, too - like a fungus.  Back from the play, and shall now write the notes in a trice.
