If that makes me a frilly pink panty wearer, well, then so be it.
I thought it was a very creative perception shift, from that of Dorothy to that of the wicked witch and how she got that way.[/quote]
Exactly. I was like, holy shit, I really like this! Haha. Very creative, especially the twist at the end. [/quote]
how can a total rip-off of a book be creative?
next thing ya’ll want is a re-do of 101 Dalmatians from Cruella DeVils point of view.

I used to go see lots of plays when I was in JH and HS. Has anyone every seen a gory slasher play?
The people in the front rows get sprayed. lol
Lots of jumping and screaming. Fun stuff, it was not a big production like Wicked though. [/quote]
Chicago has a big store-front theater scene. A few of the more popular plays are Too Much Light Makes the Baby Go Blind, Co-ed Prison Sluts, and Charles Manson: A Musical. Makes for a very rowdy and very drunk night, usually. They usually involve some kind of simulated bodily fluids sprayed over the audience.
Lyrics to one of my favorite songs from Co-ed Prison Sluts:
Shit
Mother fucker
Fuck you, you cunt or a prick
Blooooooooooowwwwwwww job
suck my dick

Awesome!
I have not found anything fun like that here or anywhere, maybe there is something all the way in Van. Hmmm
The only theater fun I could find when I lived in Calgary was the Loose Moose Theater, it was all improv so sometimes it’d be improv plays and sometimes theater sport nights.
Forgot an old favorite, Cannibal Cheerleaders on Crack.
Check out this review from '93:
“This dedication to their task–warning society of impending doom–coupled with a manic energy and agility, keeps our attention focused on the message even while holographic strippers are masturbating with office machines, homeless people are being murdered for their organs, privileged citizens are dining on Clorox and third-world babies, and bodily fluids of all descriptions are spurting in fountains all over the stage. Not for the faint of heart–or weak of stomach–Cannibal Cheerleaders on Crack is a two-fisted farce that leaves no cultural taboo unviolated, no hypocritical demon unexorcised.”
All in a theater that holds around 65 people and the actors are about 6 feet away from the front row. All the theater have caberet licenses so you can’t buy beer there, but you can bring it in from the outside. I took a couple first dates there, never got a second surprisingly.

think I met her in the alley behind a bar for a little fun-n-games one night after closing time.

How do you make a play out of this?[/quote]
You either use that as the finale, and work up a backstory on how the moose met Edgy, had a wild night, and wound up in the tree. OR, you take that as your opening scene, and have Edgy come in and court the tree moose, rescuing it from the branches of the tree and sweeping the lady moose into Edgy’s branches of love. The story takes viewers on a long and windy road through the turmoils of interspecies relationships and how hard it is for a NorCal boy to love a Canadian She-Moose so openly while also being a ginger.
Either way, Tony Awards would be brought home with that shit.

LOL…that reminds me of when I saw “Miss Saigon” in high school. My mom had given me the soundtrack before hand to see if I really wanted to see it and I was SHOCKED to read lyrics that included words like “chickenshit” and “fuck”. It was awesome.

That almost sounds like a Troma movie on stage. lol
