Hi all, hopefully I'm allowed to post this here. Have you always dreamt of becoming a (possible) TheatreBoard-Team winner? (YES, YOU HAVE. I know you do!) Now is your chance! Coming friday 7pm, anthony40 and me will be 'competing' in the Theatre Cafe's Stagey Quiz. As last quiz (West End Wilma- Theatre Quiz), Anthony and I were part of the winning team, so we have our hopes up we can do this again. However, we got one spare ticket. So, anyone here who can tell me within 0.3 seconds from which musical+song the next phrase is? 'Mother, I need to talk to you?' Or who the original voice of Eponines scream is? (That was actually 1 of the 2 questions we answered wrong the last time...) Don't wait any longer, and send me a pm! oh it is 6 pounds, but that includes a welcome drink, 2x vouchers for a drink, snacks and a performance during the quiz. I hope some stagey mind can join us coming friday!

Oh I would've loved to (although my knowledge isn't as good as some), but I'm away.

I already lost one! Luckily I bought two! I pinned it to by bag, and today I realized it wasn't there anymore =( Does that mean that there could be a random non-theatre board person wandering around wearing one of our badges? If we meet anyone wearing one of the badges it may be necessary to ask them some tricky theatre board based questions to test their authenticity..... Good luck with the quiz by the way.

I wouldn't have been able to join you for the quiz anyway, but I just want to know if the answer to the first question is See Me from Bare (one of my favourite shows), or if there's another song out there with that line?

How often do they do these quizzes I'm so going to try and come to the next one.

It's definitely See Me from Bare. Another song for the 'songs that make me cry' thread!
I hope I don't let the team and board down on Friday... you have a winning streak to uphold

I wouldn't be good enough for this, but I love the theatreboard representation. What are some other questions they've asked previously? I want to test myself. Wouldn't have known the first two.

With the Linzi Hateley scream, was it her even when Frances Ruffelle played the role originally?

No. Linzi Hateley was one of the first Eponine replacements and it was recorded then. I have no idea though if Frances Ruffelle did it nightly or had her own recorded scream. I'm a huge fan of her's! She was my first Eponine

That's what I thought (that Linzi wouldn't have done the original scream).
You're a fan of Frances or Linzi?

Sorry, I meant Linzi Hateley. I love her distinctive voice. Frances Ruffelle i'm not a huge fan of.

Yay. Well done. What did you win? Also, any questions you didn't get for us to have a go at? There were some visual questions; some partial images of shows and of actors/actresses. Walking down from Holborn to Piccadilly Circus you had to name the theatres. Name the four Strallen sisters. What sitcom actor became The Phantom of the Opera? Name two of the three musicals written by Bjorn Uvales? What are the four things the Witch wishes for in Into The Woods? What was the show based upon The Matchmaker? What Shakespearean play is Kiss Me Kate based upon? A whole series of Broadway questions, including what size of theatre makes it off-Broadway? And who has won the most Tony Awards? Quoting lyrics, name the show. (Including the current) what was the four last shows at The Prince Edward theatre? That's just a sample. Possibly the nest one will be at Christmas.
