Posted: 3/27/08 at 6:32pmGod, spellingbee, don't turn into a chris cocker for coolkid. I was just saying that countless threads for dumb rent questions get annoying.

I'm nowhere near Chris Crocker. I don't have a ****ing shrine to him. I hardly even know him. What I DO know about him is that he's a nice guy and he is just obsessed with RENT. I'm obsessed with seeing shows. Any shows. That's why I wanted to sell my playbills. He's just someone who is obsessed with a show. There's nothing wrong with that. most people here are in love with Patti Lupone. He's in love with RENT. Give him a break!
And I'm not just saying this because he has a mental problem. I HAVE ONE TOO. OK? MAKE FUN OF ME FOR MY AUTISIM. I F*CKING DARE YOU TO! I DARE YOU TO! Leave the kid ALONE!
He's a faker, and you've been taken in by his con. And in doing so, you are enabling him. He is doing more damage to aspergers than papa's words ever could. -Chane/Liverpool on me having asperger syndrome.

[backs away slowly]
no but seriously no one is making fun of him or you or anyone for a mental dissability. And why do you think he has one anyway?
Second. I love shows, in fact, I love rent. a lot. But, you don't see me making annoying ridiculous posts 24/7. Everyone on this board loves shows, that is why we are all here in the first place. Your excuses for him acting this way don't even make sense and it has nothing to do with the functions of his brain.
I think you need to chill out and calm down.

Posted: 3/28/08 at 1:52amThanks for that, Lizzie. I'm still laughing after looking at it for a good 30 seconds.

Idina is not coming back. She is upset that it is closing, but she has moved on. Good for her 
I wish the show a very happy ending! You had a great run and affected many people. What more could you ask for?

Anyone care to fill in the blanks?

I can help out with one of these...
Maureen : Eden Espinosa
Not sure when she starts but Nicolette begins as Brooke in Legally Blonde early May so it could be soon.
I had heard they were trying to get a 'name' from the R&B world for Mimi since Tamyra isn't extending...so we'll see if that pans out.

I was told by someone at the Nederlander that Michael McElroy (the current Collins) would be closing the show.
And people complain that Adam and Anthony are too old.

Posted: 4/21/08 at 11:46pmorangeskittles, I agree. It's pretty ridiculous that Collins is old enough to be Mark's father. Combine that with Karmine's Mimi to Declan's Roger and, I swear, the whole world has gone crazy.

Posted: 4/22/08 at 12:08amEden Espinosa as Maureen? Don't see that at all. She doesn't exactly scream spoiled Long Island princess to me although she does "scream".

Posted: 4/22/08 at 12:11amThere's not much I like about Espinosa so I can't begin to wrap my head around her playing Maureen. Why? It's such a bad fit.
#46re: Rent Closing cast?
Posted: 4/22/08 at 12:21amI think its a good fit. I might go back to see her.

Posted: 4/22/08 at 12:28amSorry, I don't get it either. Sure she can sing it but that's about all.

Forget Eden Espinosa, didn't you get the memo? They created a new competition/reality TV show like for Grease to decide who will play oin the final show:
Seasons of Renthead Fanatics: Who wants to Star in the Final Performance of Rent?
It hasn't been advertised very well mostly because it was hard to fit the entire title on one poster :P

I've actually been told Eden as well from some sources...
BUT...that was Disser's first post. Can that really be trusted?
