I bet you all thought I couldn't be any worse than I was during the countdown to Chess and seeing Idina at the Ambassador's Theatre?

Wrong.

On Saturday 30th August, I will be in NYC at Rent, hoping to see Tracie Thoms on stage. It's a long shot - she's having health issues and may even be out that day due to Cold Case filming commitments. But I have a chance of seeing her. On Stage. Performing Take Me or Leave Me. LIVE.

ARGHGH!! *spazzes out and goes back to pacing the carpet nervously*

She won't know what shows she has to miss that final week until later. And she won't know how badly her voice has been affected by over work until after this week. I swear, if I have to buy tix to every show that weekend, I'm going to see her.

In the meantime I'll be haunting her blog for more performance date news and Broadway Understudies.

'm gonna be a nervous wreck by the time I fly out!

Never seen Rent. Looked up Take me or leave me on Youtube, which had the movie. Both Tracie and Idina win all over the screen. Then found out Taye Diggs was in the original broadway opening! Lots of awesome.

May one day get up to speed on musicals. One day.

*g* Tracie and Idina are awesome in the movie, 's true. Idina and Taye were both original cast members, 's how they met. Tracie auditioned for Rent stage show 9 times and never got in. Now she's in the final cast. Dream come true stuff.
