----------------------


1) What musicals are your favorite? Why?
Jekyll and Hyde; I've recently become obsessed. I love the tone; the theme of the darkness in the insanity kicks *ss. Excellent music. And, of course, the story in itself is peachy.

The Phantom of the Opera; classic, isn't it? The music is the bets music I've hear dina play, and the play in itself is magnificent. The book it was based on is shibby; the play makes the idea more easily understandable. As with Jekyll and Hyde, I loves the tone. Lovely.


2) What character(s) are your favorite?
Hyde from Jekyll and Hyde, of course. Erik from Phantom... Aside from that, I'm at a loss for the moment... My brain is out somewhere, and it's three in the morning.


3) What character(s) would you most like to play?
Lucy Harris from Jekyll and Hyde. I really do like her character...


4) Favorite song(s)?
Alive!, It's a Dangerous Game, A New Life, and Confrontation from Jekyll and Hyde.
Past the Point of No Return, Down Once More, and Music of the Night from Phantom.
Also like Memory from Cats along with other songs that are... there but gone for the moment...


5) Random lyrics, anyone?

"All that you are is a face in the mirror
I close my eyes and
You disappear."
"I'm what you face when you
Face in the mirror
Long as you live I'll still be here."
"All that you are is the end of a nightmare
All that you are is a dying scream..."
~Jekyll/Hyde, Confrontation

"At the touch of your hand, at the sound of your voice
At the moment your eyes meet mine
I am out of my mind
I am out of control
Full of feelings I can't explain."
~Lucy, It's a Dangerous Game

"Like the moon, an enigma
Lost and alone in the night
Damned by some heavenly stigma
But blazing with light!"
~Hyde, Alive!

And this is what I do at three in the morning...

Spooky.

1) What musicals are your favorite? Why?
As biased as my opinion may be, my absolute favourite musical is of course Les Miserables. Of course, that'd be because its the only one I can dedicate myself to watching...

2) What character(s) are your favorite?
First and foremost, Javert, from Les Mis. I mean, the guy is a model worker. He takes his job seriously, he dedicates himself to each and every task, and he listens to the people who need him. Who cares if hes maniacal and suicidal? ^^;
And not to mention, he's not so blinded by his goals that he can't let Jean Valjean pass freely with the wounded Marius. Now thats class.
Eponine, from...Les Mis. She's smart, spunky, and has an attitude. Yet nonetheless she's loyal to her friends, and just wants to be loved. ...And she goes unnoticed in all of this. But does she complain? Not at all! She just keeps right on going, pursuing her dreams.

3) What character(s) would you most like to play?
Although it'd be a blast to play Javert, I find I can't hit his tone quite right, so I'd have to say Jean Valjean. I know the words of his songs off by heart, and I'm starting to sing a remarkable amount like Colm Wilkinson. Despite being something like 50 years younger than him...

4) Favorite song(s)?
Stars, Who Am I?, The Confrontation, One Day More!, Red and Black, On My Own, Drink With Me, Dog Eats Dog, Javert's Suicide, Master of the House... But thats just a short list.

5) Random lyrics, anyone?
All from Les Mis, in case nobody's been listening...

"There... out in the darkness
A fugitive running
Fallen from god...
Fallen from grace
God, be my witness
I never shall yield
'til we come face to face
'til we come face to face"
~Javert, Stars

"Who am I?
Can I condemn this man to slavery?
Pretend I do not see his agony?
This innocent who bears my face,
Who goes to judgement in my place

Who am I?
Can I conceal myself forevermore?
Pretend I'm not the man I was before?
And must my name until I die,
Be no more than an alibi?

Must I lie?
How can I ever face my fellow men?
How can I ever face myself again?
My soul belongs to god I know,
I made that bargain long ago!
He gave me hope when hope was gone
He gave me strength to journey on...

Who am I?
Who am I? I'm Jean Valjean!
And so Javert, you see its true,
This man bears no more guilt than you!

Who am I?
24601!"
~Jean Valjean, Who Am I?

"I used to dream, that I would meet a prince...
But godalmighty, have you seen what's happened since?
Master of the house,
Isn't worth my spit
Comforter, philosopher and lifelong sh*t..."
~Madame, Master of the House
