This is Belchertown where people can't see free!

I decided to avoid doing work this afternoon, so I joined a couple leading ladies on a trip to Theatrix to pick up some mics that were accidentally returned (they belong to the Campus Center). Somehow we decided that we had to write a new musical parody about the parody Urinetown. It is currently titled Belchertown, but the premise is that there is an evil corporation (Theatrix?) that controls energy usage by limiting light usage. It will feature new songs such as "It's a Privilege to See" and the opening number "Belchertown." Look for it soon ;-)

On another note, Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS is once again auctioning off teddy bears to raise money and awareness for AIDS. All of the bears are dressed like various characters from current Broadway musicals and signed by someone famous who was part of the show in some way. Here are some of my favorites (can you guess what shows they are?):

Jeanie from Hair the Musical

Christine Daee from Phantom

The Witch (Bernadette Peters!!) from Into the Woods

and my most favorite of all, Eliza Doolittle from My Fair Lady, signed by the wonderful Julie Andrews.
