It is also late at night and I am very tired, but I could remain silent no longer. I searched for The King and I in deviations today, you know what I got? NOTHING! ZIP! ZILCH! ZEROS ENTRIES! Nothing, not a single scrap is tagged 'The King and I' which I found so unbelievable my jaw literally dropped. I thought "Surely, for a musical so sweeping, so epic, so beautifully portrayed, there MUST be fanart..." NO DICE! And this was after severally slights against a most beloved classic musical! I cam here in serach of solace, PFFFT!
YOU ARE ALL CULTURALLY DEFICIENT IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THE ORIGINAL 1956 ROGERS & HAMMERSTEIN MUSICAL!
And as much as I do love 'Anna nd the King' THAT DOESN'T COUNT! It's not the same, though probably more historically accurate and less romanticized for popularity.
Also, if this entry fails to convince you that you must see said musical, MAY THE GHOST OF YUL BRYNNER HAUNT YOU!
This rant was brought on by the TMC showing yesterday. I was so moved by it, now at an age where I can truly appreciate it and after so many years of avoidance, I wept. It is a beautiful love story that any lover of Pride & Prejudice, Troy, A Great and Terrible Beauty and any other epic story or epic love story, would enjoy. Please, I am so disappointed that this seems to be fading in the passage of the time. I would not have it so.

Yeah, I'm Sir Toby, the old, fat, drunk guy. John's the sea captain/priest. And Jamie Miller is Viola, but she's double casted with Margo Leitschuh, yes, Mitch's little sister. The funny/really weird part about this? Mitch is... Duke Orsino, Viola's love interest. Yeah...
And yes, as per my sig, we ARE doing a SUNDAY SHOW. IT WILL BE THE MOST EPIC THING YOU'VE EVR SEEN! But do come see one of the other days too
Other than that... same old, same old really. Scored a 28 on my ACT. Taking three AP's. Oh, and as of tonight, there is an official Josh Saboorzideh fanclub. We have T-shirts. And buttons. I'm vice president. Jamie MIller's father is the president. And best of all, Josh has no idea.
