Spring Awakening, the Tony winning musical about puberty and society's failure to handle it in anything resembling a healthy manner (based on a book written in, I believe, 19th C Germany, although I'd have to double-check) is currently touring.

While I missed the DC-area performances, they're going to be in Hershey (01/05/10-01/10/10) and Cincinnati (01/12/10-01/24/10), both of which I can drive to for an overnight excursion without having to call in "dead" to RL.

Is anyone interested in getting together to see one of the performances?? This is their 2007 Tony performance, if anyone's curious. They had to censor it a bit (the title of the third song in the medley is "Totally Fucked"), but the general meaning still comes through pretty clearly.

I'm also hoping to go to the showing of the Big Gay Musical @ Reel Affirmations on October 24. I think I've roped taffimai into joining me, but the more the merrier, so chime in if you're interested!

ION: Not dead. School's still kicking my ass, more from a logistical POV than anything else. 14 hour days just aren't fun, even when they've got awesome vocal training in the middle of them. Learning a lot, though, which is good. Currently off dairy entirely for vocal reasons, which may or may not end up a permanent situation. *LOVING* this season's Dollhouse (although I've handed off my massive DH plot b/c there's just no way I can do it in anything resembling a timely manner), still on the Glee!bandwagon, haven't been able to bring myself to watch the SG:U pilot, yet, although I've promised myself I would give it enough rope to hang itself. I'm also starting to sit down and organize my Valentines to make sure that at least *those* get done in a timely manner. If you want onto that beta filter again, give me a shout, I'll be making the 2010 14V Beta listing somewhere in the next few weeks.

Those of you waiting on Torchwood fic, I can tell you for sure the end of the "Bound" universe is going to be done and posted in the first half of the 14V.
