Burnside Gooch

Rare pic of Robert Preston and Lucille Ball in The Music Man.

Rare pic of Katharine Hepburn in the film version of Other Desert Cities, her final film with Spencer.

I used to be a girl, but after I played Seymour in my high school production of Little Shop of Horrors, the school decided I should be a boy. When I returned home three days later (my parents hadn’t even noticed I was gone), I was sporting a snazzy new penis, and Burnside Gooch was born.

I put air in one tire, and now I think I’m a mechanic.

Pic from my living room:

“I’m going to talk shit about you for the rest of my life.”

That’s called upstaging.

Happy National Coming Out Day! I know, based on my posts, you all assume I’m a raging heterosexual, but surprise… I’m GAY!

Will Dirty Dancing on Broadway sell better than Dirty Dancing in Boston?

…Nine albums

A real hit doesn’t need to cover every inch of the building to sell out for years.

Is this Audra shading Patti?

Gwen Verdon “returned to her former state of youth and beauty” in George Abbott’s Into the Woods.

PBS blurred the boobs! 🤣

Sorry, NPH, but Damn Yankees is not the first time MLB has been in partnership with a Broadway show. Bronx Bombers was “Produced in association with The New York Yankees and Major League Baseball Properties.”

Back in the day, you had to earn above the title billing.

The musical version of Gone With the Wind should have been titled Damn Yankees.

Hoping to get 2 MILLION followers so Hollywood will let me make a Burniside Gooch feature film. Plus, the Weisslers will let me play Roxie.

We’ll see if Lorna Luft is still excited to be a new Tony voter after she has to sit through Galileo.

Happy Dolly Parton Day 9/25 🦋

Happy Bye Visibility Day!

When are the Sandy auditions?

Apple should make a Broadway iPhone that’s shaped like a turkey that folds.

No one wants a foldable iPhone; we want an affordable iPod Classic with iTunes and massive storage.

Besides the special magic of Mike Nichols, view the changing billing of Miss Hannigan for a clue as to why (among other reasons) no ANNIE has worked as well as the original.

My favorite song from Kiss of the Spider Woman is My Funny Valentin.

Rare pic of Liza Minnelli as Molina in Kiss of the Spider Woman.

“HAVE FUN AT THE WHOREHOUSE”

This is the production of Carousel I want to see!

Rent needs dancing as much as Sweeney Todd does.

I wish adults could get books from Dolly’s Imagination Library.

I want a rehearsal understudy.
