tedwordsLast night, went to see Chicken Little with Corb, Annie, and her boyfriend. We were practically the only ones in the movie theater (Annie's ex-boyfriend was sitting on the opposite side of the theater, coincidentally, but he's a fat oaf, so I don't think he much counts). We had ourselves a great old time, especially during the closing credits, when "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" came on.
Speaking of which, yesterday I discovered the musical that I'm going to be obsessed with for the next few months. As I was thumbing through the New Yorker yesterday, I came across a full page ad for Lestat , the musical version of Anne Rice's Vampire chronicles, with music by Elton and Bernie. I remember reading about proposals for that project, many years ago (during my honeymoon, for God's sake!) in You'll Never Eat Lunch in This Town Again by Julia Phillips, and even then, it was old news.
Almost twenty years in the making...sounds to me as though it'll either be fucking brilliant or a total piece of who-let-the-dawgs-out poo. With Elton's track record in theatre, I'm hoping for the former.
