•IDINA BOWS OUT OF ‘ROMANTIC POETRY’ •

May 31, 2007 @ 10:16 pm

This comes to you a few hours later than I hoped to post it, and I apologize – I wasn’t near a computer, but I knew this was an urgent update that was relevant to many of you.

This was announced this morning in a press release sent to Vassar College:

“Tony Award-winning actress Idina Menzel, the former star of ‘Wicked’ and ‘Rent,’ will not appear in the Powerhouse Theater production of “Romantic Poetry” this summer because of an unavoidable scheduling conflict, Vassar College announced today.

The college, in a press release, said Menzel’s replacement will be named as soon as possible.” (source & full article: Poughkeepsie Journal)

I should also announce that tickets are non-refundable. As of right now, I don’t have any further information as to the reasoning behind the cancellation. If I find anything out, I will do my best to let you all know. I understand many people were making plans to go see the show in New York, and this is definitely an unfortunate development.

If any further news reaches me, I will keep everyone posted. Again, I’m sorry for the disappointing news.

•EW EVENT, PHOTOS, REMIXES + ‘ROMANTIC POETRY’ NEWS •

May 16, 2007 @ 3:03 pm

I was going to wait until the weekend to do my big update, but seeing as I had an hour to kill, I thought I’d jump ahead.

As many of you may already know, Idina will be appearing in a limited run of Romantic Poetry: The Musicale at Vassar College’s Martel Theatre in Poughkeepsie, NY from July 19 to July 29, 2007 (following the benefit performance of the show next week.) Vassar’s Official Site includes the following description of the show:

John Patrick Shanley, writer and director of Doubt, and Dreamgirls composer Henry Krieger bring you a mad musical New York champagne evening of six inter-related plays in two acts, the subject of which is the lyrical expression of amour.

I’ve received some info regarding Idina’s role(s) in the show — She will appear in 2 of the 6 plays mentioned, portraying Lilly in one, and Connie in the other. Tickets can be purchased here.

In other extremely belated news, Warner Brothers Records has released 2 new dance re-mix records, featuring various versions of the “Defying Gravity” single on iTunes. Both CDs consist of 5 tracks – the Defying Gravity EP (the yellow cover), contains shortened mixes of the extended dance tracks that are on the Defying Gravity (DJ Version) EP (the red cover.) The CDs cost $4.95/ea. to purchase. smile


Last of the news: For those of you interested, Jennifer Houlton, director of the independent film Water featuring Idina, has uploaded another short clip from the film to video site, YouTube. To view the video, click here.

Last night, Idina and Taye attended the Entertainment Weekly Upfront Party in New York, and I’ve managed to gather a few photos from the arrivals. Included is 1 HQ image (for now) and 8 MQ images. To view the album, click here or on the thumbnails below.

As promised, I’ve also added a small handful of HQ images from the Poiret Costume Institute Gala last week (9 to be exact.) I have a few more smaller images to add, but I thought I’d get these up for you right away so you wouldn’t have to wait any longer. To view the album, click here or on the thumbnails below.


I’ll try to update more this weekend when everything settles down with my schedule. Thanks to everyone for the well-wishes on my finals & apartment moving! I appreciate it so much and everything is going smoothly. wassat

Hey boys and girls – I’m so sorry that I haven’t gotten to the updates that I promised you yet. I’m just writing now to assure you that I didn’t disappear. smile My finals for classes are starting this week, and I just moved into a new apartment, so life is crazy. But I will update with those images and belated news when I get re-settled. Please be patient until I return – thanks everyone! ♥
