So, my aunt works backstage at the theatre where "Chicago" is being performed, in Hebrew (it was recently translated). My family and I saw it two weeks ago, and my sister and I got a full backstage tour. The show was fantastic, and the translation was brilliant. After it was over, we asked my aunt if she could possibly get her hands on a copy of the libretto... and she called us now to say that she got the copy that belonged to the guy playing Amos, that he didn't need anymore. As soon as we see her, she'll give it to us! There are very few copies of this existing, and now I can learn the entire musical in Hebrew! I am SOOO excited!!

Oh, I sooo wanted you to stage a major Hatrack party in Chicago... You know, use the city's economy to fuel it and to get Hatrackers from all over the world to the party... :dissapointed:

Well, I'm actually going to Chicago in two and a half weeks... [Wink]

Just the musical again though. Sorry! I would love to have a huge gathering and get you all there!

Hehe...

And I haven't seen it... (the movie, I mean, although I haven't seen the city either) I've heard many good opinions about it but also some bad ones, but I'm not such a musical fan. Hmm, now that I think of it I'm not sure I ever saw a musical! o_0

Musicals are my LIFE!

Don't worry Corwin, I think she is bluffing, she still has yet to get me to see an Audrey Hepburn movie.

Oh, also Raia, congradulations on owning a copy of the libretto to "Chicago" in hebrew, by the way, what is a libretto?

By the way, Shani, when you return from Chicago you'd better know Portman well, I'll give you until February 1st; please remind me of it...

Or else... *thinks to himself...* "OICJH!" (Yiddish version for 'ouch').

As for your title, I own London (in SimCity 4).

Totally wicked cool, Raia!! And you're going to be in town? Maybe we really SHOULD try cramming you into my purse for Spamalot! LOL

*thoroughly amused at the thought of Chicago in Hebrew*

*...now wants to see that* even if I wouldn't understand a word of it...

and musicals and Audrey Hepburn films are two things that everyone should see...

Doesn't one of the female murderers have some lines in Hungarian, or Russian or something?

Just wondering if they translated those, though maybe she doesn't actually say anything in that language, i haven't seen it in a while.

Goody, I'm not actually going to be in town, unfortunately... I meant that I'm going to the show again in two weeks. Alas! Otherwise I would totally take you up on that!

Marek, a libretto is the entire script of the show, and it also contains the vocal score. And they still have the Hungarian, they don't translate that. [Razz]

Jonathan, Natalie's not performing in "Chicago"... But people like Ricki Gal, and Sasi Keshet, and Rita (of course, that's the famous one in this case), and um... *doesn't remember* some other famous people. Velma's being played by Maya Dagan, who's phenomenal... she's new, she hasn't gotten the chance to be famous yet. I think she's only a few years older than me.

breyer, you LOVE Audrey Hepburn movies. Don'tdenyit!

Rei, it's awesome. [Smile] If you come visit me, I'll take you! Hehe...

doesn't really deny it, but probably wouldn't have watched one if you hadn't made me.

Ok, I'll take credit for that one. [Big Grin]
