BROADWAY STARS IN THE ALLEY

Paul Williams

We had such fun. Yesterday before the matinee the Jersey Girls got to perform this year. Every Broadway musical and straight play were invited. So cool to see Martha Plimpton, and Jennifer Ehle and Kevin Spacey backstage. And than we met the new stars of GREASE …the winners from You’re the One that I want..Max and Laura..what sweethearts. Our number was a parody of Walk Like A Man into Boyfriends Back. Unfortunately the sound of 2 of our instruments weren’t turned on till midway thru the song..so it sounded like we were singing accapella.The last number was from Spring Awakening..Laura Pritchard and John Gallagher sang Spring and Summer and his amazing song.. We love them….their voices…amazing. Anyway it was so much fun. Thank you for all who attended.

I also had the great blessing of meeting Paul Williams. Donnie Kehr invited him for a future project (which is going to be amazing) He was so kind. He wrote the majority of songs in my favorite show musical back in high school, A STAR IS BORN, with Barbara Streisand…among millions of other songs…what a day…

Here’s me, Max Crumm and Heather Ferguson and Laura Osnes (You’re the One That I Want)

    You girls were GREAT yesterday! You sounded beautiful and were hysterical. Definitely one of my favorite performances. For a couple minutes, I forgot how cold I was!

    Glad you had fun. Sounds like a blast. I am sure you girls sounded great even without the instruments. All you girls have an enormous amount of talent and it is inspiring that you share it with the world.

    A future project, huh? And will you star in it?

    Talk to you soon,
    A

    You guys were HISTERICAL for the parody! I was way in the back since I had to give out flyers and also run to my job right after you guys performed but it was wonderful. So happy to hear you had as much fun doing it as we did watching!
