We Will Rock You - Again!

Going to see WWRY again in a couple weeks while we're in Toronto for Toronto FC and Blue Jays games...

We Will Rock You ROCKS!


I'm sorry this review is so late- - but it's been a hectic week! (Thanks for the push Suze!)


Ok, so this show is soooo good. It's so worth the drive to Toronto to see it -- you should all go! The music is awesome, the story is hilarious and the acting very well done. There are some great little pieces of Canadiana thrown in and it just worked so well!


Suzie McNeil did a great job -- I already knew she could sing, but she acted very well also!


I loved Yvan Pedneault who played the lead character -- he was so loveable. He played in the French production of RENT in Montreal -- ohh that would have been awesome to see!
Erica Peck played the other lead role, Scaramouche, and she was amazing! Plus, she's like 20 years old and halfway through school. She's amazing...I can't wait to see her again!


Everyone was great really...the songs, the music...everything! I loved the Killer Queen, and of course The Seven Seas of Rhye! :)

This show is awesome... I can't express it. It pokes fun at the state of music today (basically, after Bohemian Rhapsody, music went downhill) and it's just so much fun!


We bought the soundtrack from the London production and it's a lot of fun...I have to be careful listening to it on my ipod or at work -- I always want to sing along!

The first day of spring!

Ok, so that was technically a few days ago -- but this is the first official Friday of spring, and oh what a day! I didn't wear a coat this morning, just threw on a new cord blazer my mom got me yesterday and a scarf, and off I went. I got off work around 3:30 p.m. and it was so nice and sunny out, so I walked home.

I happen to be wearing a pedometre today -- at I was at about 3100 steps when I got off work. It took me about an hour to walk home, and I'm now at 8365 steps! :) Sweet.

I guess that makes up for missing yoga class today.

I'm super psyched as Theo and I are leaving for Toronto tomorrow morning and going to see We Will Rock You - the musical based on the music of Queen! I listened to Queen the whole way home today and it occured to me that Queen's music is made for the stage -- it's very grandios and dramatic.

One of my favorite songs: Killer Queen (sorry, I can't get it to embed)

I just found out that Suzie McNeil will be in the production - yes! That Suzie McNeil!

Full report on Sunday night! :)
