First Read-Through

[plumtreeblossom]

So on a brighter note, the first read-through for the one-act festival last night was awesome. This is our biggest cast ever, 27 in all, with an ace team of directors. I'm loving my role in "Cabfare For The Common Man," but it would be spoilerage if I told you what it was, so you'll just have to come to the show. And I want you should come to the show. We have zombies! We have bugs! We might have flying cows!

I've been trying to think of songs with taxicabs in them that Carl could use for our intro and outre. Haven't come up with any yet, but there must be some...

Oooh, yeah! And I also thought of Joni Mitchell's "Big Yellow Taxi."

Oo, and Taxi Dance, from Shawn Cassidy. Remember that? I had the record album. 'cause I'm just that old. :)

Hee, I haven't heard that. But that's because I'm too old even for Shawn Cassidy! I was a David Cassidy fan. :-)

But I think you probably don't want to use Harry Chapin's "Taxi," which is a good song, but SO DEPRESSING.

Ooh, and then there's "Taxi Girl," by Modern Talking, and "Taxi Ride" from Tori's album Scarlet's Walk.

Big Yellow Taxi, by Joni Mitchell!

i think carl and neil were tossing around the idea of using the fanfare for the common man that's done w/ taxi cab honking - which i think is an uber-fabulous idea (i think i'm getting the song name right - audioboy, correct me if i'm wrong!)

*dies laughing*
