Peace Blogs

Sorry we haven't updated in a while and you've been forced to watch our video over and over again. It was actually pretty funny how it was made: we got home from our Forum audition with a surprising amount of energy and Elyse said, "Hey, can we learn every move Liza does in the Tony opening and then tape it and put it on the blog?" To which Annie replied, "Sure, and I'll be Anne Hathaway in the audience being obnoxious." Next thing we know, Annie's hair is in a French twist, Mom is styling a wig, and Elyse is getting changed into as many black sequins as possible. Welcome to the Steingold household. 

We have so much to talk about so we're going to try to pace ourselves. First things first: has anyone been to Short Pump Town Center lately? This doesn't have anything to do with theatre, but why on earth is there a need for a Peace Frogs store? The economy is bad, however we'll revive it by buying t-shirts whose popularity peaked in 1997 - when Elyse was frequenting the Peace Frogs kiosk and Annie was wearing a ridiculous amount of denim Bugs Bunny shirts from the Warner Bros. Store, both at Regency Mall (speaking of popularity peaking in 1997...). 

And speaking of frogs who promote peace, Mom recently stumbled upon the cutest song on the Sirius Broadway channel. It's from The Little Mermaid on Broadway and is definitely worth 99 cents. It's called "She's in Love" and is sung by Flounder (who we now have a crush on and who we think sounds a ridiculous amount like Eric Pastore) and Ariel's sisters. Try to spot the Sutton wannabe. We just know we really want to get a group of girls - um, and Eric - to sing this with us. Harmonies - love them!

Summer shows, summer shows! There are so many going on. We saw the Millie IDR and are excited to talk about it. And we're randomly hearing about shows that we want to see! For example, today at Baker's Crust our waitress looked vaguely familiar. Finally Elyse said, "Did Robyn O'Neill take her headshot?" And that's how we recognized her, from Robyn's site! So Annie asked her if she was an actor and if Robyn had in fact taken her headshot and she said yes- and also looked at Annie like she was a bit of a stalker. Her name is Alison Haracznak and she's going to be in Aloha, Say the Pretty Girls, a Night Live Collective production. We just looked at their blog and hopefully we'll be able to check it out. She brought out our roasted chicken grinders with only mayo, chicken, and bread perfectly, so just for that we want to go out there and support her! Mayo, chicken, and bread- we choose to only eat the healthy parts of the sandwich. We were too embarrassed to tell her to hold the chicken.

Stay tuned for our two-cents on Millie, Busch Gardens, Wintergreen, and Chess.
