faaaaaaaabulous!

WOAH!



man... i don't even know where to start. this show was so fucking fabulous and everything about it rocked.



i bought the soundtrack for the show even before i had scene it and went in thinking it would be good... WRONG!

IT WAS GREAASH!

we had tickets - likim, sarah, carol & me - in the 2nd row and we were so close you could see every tiny bit of effort and every vein in the neck and head pop out during all the musical numbers. the costumes were every uni students wet dream.




cup-cakes
paint brushes
and the fave at the end the OPERA HOUSE!!!


here are some FAB facts&figures..
  • Each week, there are 80 loads of washing, using 8 litres of washing liquid, requiring 24 hours of ironing and 10 cans of starch. Two people sort costumes almost all day, 6 days per week
  • Nearly 200 hats and headdresses are worn by the cast throughout each performance, one of them contains 25 yellow rubber ducks, another 75 butterflies, another a bowl of fruit and a forth an aquarium complete with fish.
  • There are nearly 300 costumes changes each performance, many of which are undertaken by the principals.
  • There are 23 tonnes of scenery and lighting equipment hanging in the grid above the stage.

anyways.. if you get a chance to see this YOU HAVE TO GO!!!
