I always say: can you imagine if Sorkin wrote Smash??? It would become a show about making meaningful theater in the age of movie adaptations ... How I long for such a show!!!
"THE NEWSROOM" & MUSICAL THEATRE REFERENCES
Here's The List By Gregory Jacobs-Roseman I’ve made no secret here on Crazytown of the fact that I’m a fan of the new HBO Aaron Sorkin show The Newsroom, but one of my favorite aspects of the show are the rampant Musical Theatre references pepped into each episode. The show concluded its first ...

Thank you Leah! It's been hectic but wonderful! :)
THIS SHOULD TAKE SOME TIME...
By Laure Porché Soooooooooooooo.... here I am, on Friday, with no blog post in sight. I have some excuse, as the past week has mainly been occupied by moving from freakin' France to overwhelming NYC. I toyed with the idea of falling back on my already planned French Art 4th installment, but it w...
Love you! ;)
TODD AKIN & THE CRAZIEST SHIT I'VE HEARD ALL WEEK
The distortion of facts seems to be getting more and more prevalent in the current political climate - especially when it comes to the topics of global warming and women's rights; two things the GOP is trying desperately to pretend don't exist. -By Leah Bonnema (Stand Up Comic) I'm sure by now...
THIS SHOULD TAKE SOME TIME...
By Laure Porché Soooooooooooooo.... here I am, on Friday, with no blog post in sight. I have some excuse, as the past week has mainly been occupied by moving from freakin' France to overwhelming NYC. I toyed with the idea of falling back on my already planned French Art 4th installment, but it would upset the symmetry of things. So, in an effort to entertain you anyway, here are 15 of my favorite theater related videos! Enjoy! LAURE PORCHE is a former dancer, now a translator for the Children/YA branch of Hachette Publishing. In addition, she wrote the texts for... Continue reading

ART VS. SCIENCE, THE PERSONAL EDITION
I find the cultural divide between the arts/humanities and the sciences puzzling. by Loren A. Roberts (guru of multi-hyphenate media) Was this your dilemma in school? This had to be one of the hardest weekends to program -- I wish I could have had a clone of myself. On the one hand, one of my...
Oh and by the way, I'll be in NYC from next Monday, and I'd love to come and see you onstage. Let me know via Facebook where and when? Best!
WELCOME TO FAHRBOT TOWN
There is only one show in which you can find liberated females, puppets having sex, and aliens farting helium. By Laure Porché (Translator/Actress/Geek in chief) As I was reading Leah's great post the other day, it occurred to me that her point was not complete without mentioning one of the...
Well, if I can sell this show to even one person, I'm happy! Good luck with it (it can be really confusing and downright crazy at times!) and let me know if you like it! :) Enjoy!!! :)
Ps: the link I put on that quote you mentionned is to a very good docu/interview where some of the writers and producers talk about their vision for the show... very interesting!

This article made me think of this chinese med school I've heard about (and can't find on Google, so maybe it is a myth) whose students were all violonists (it was one of the requirements to be accepted).... The surgeons who came out of it were the best in the country.

This is sooo awesome! But the reaction of Turquoise Tunique worries me: if artists and people who could actually vote really think that "politics don't matter", America (and the world) will find themselves in deep s**t come december... :(
BIRTH CONTROL GOES BOLLYWOOD
Issues Worth Dancing About... By Gena Oppenheim (Writer) Recently, at a party to celebrate a show opening, talk was the usual theatre-centric fare: Sondheim, Summer Stock, Shakespeare. However, when I mentioned the upcoming presidential...

FEMINISM IN SPACE - LIVE LONG AND PROSPER BIATCHES
I was talking to my mom on the phone the other day when she said "I watched that romantic French film you recommended to me." I was confused. Did she dial the wrong number? I'm an only child so I knew that she couldn't have mistakenly taken me for her other kid. "What are you talking about right...
I so feel you right now! I'm moving to New York (from Paris!) in a week to attend Circle in the Square Theater School at 30 y.o... and my packing list is pretty much the same as yours! Good luck to you! :)
SO WHAT HAPPENS NOW?
"Another suitcase in another hall..." Miles Mandwelle (Actor/Musician) I’ve been in denial that I’m going back to school for most of the summer. This is an easy denial to make because I get into programs all the time, but the money never happens, so I decline them. But this time, I have schol...

OLYMPICS ARE GOING DOWN IN LONDON-TOWN
This is an official attempt to re-cap the first 3 days of Olympic competition without you realizing that I'm mostly going to be discussing swimming. By Melissa Presti (Book Publisher) It's your 2012 London Olympics Crazytown Correspondant at your service! Weird that after only 3 days of events ...
Have you tried Farscape? Apart from being the most batshit crazy show I've ever watched, it has so many great female characters and one of my fav characters ever, Aeryn Sun. But warning, it is pretty out there. :)

Hum, just to defend the French a little, don't you remember that time a couple games ago (Sydney) when the Americans bad-mouthed the Australians before the relay and then finished 2nd behind them? So, it's not a French trait in itself...hum. :)
