Sing along with OMWF.
For any Boston-area folks, the fabulous Coolidge Corner Theatre is hosting a "special sing-along show" with the theater troupe Queer Soup tonight.
"We''ll have goodie bags full of interactive activities (and plastic vampire teeth, of course), subtitles so you can join in the singing, and our ringleader cast who will guide us through two of the best episodes of our favorite televison show: "Once More With Feeling" (aka, the musical episode) and "Hush"."

Oh boy. I wouldn't need subtitles. I listen to the CD all the time. Love it.

I wouldn't need the subtitles either, but I do think some fun could be had in trying to sing along while wearing the plastic vampire teeth.

Interesting concept, Simon. 'Once More, With Feeling' played out like 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show'. You maybe starting something there.

Perhaps this Buffy sing-along grew out of the demonstrated success of Sound of Music sing-alongs that have been big sell-outs in NYC, London and recently, D.C. And probably a bunch of other places.

Lioness, if your friend sends her comments to you and you post them here, it would be hugely appreciated. Thanks for offering to try to do this.

One of the funniest moments in TV history.

So, I will try.

Couldn't agree more. Priceless.
blwessels: and which part of your visual was bad again? . . .

Giles in stockings! No wait he's already done that.

In HUSH, I like where Buffy (sarah) thinks her hips are wide on the overhead... :)

We'd also have to include Anya's additional OMWF-era song which was shown in "Selfless."
I'm totally in favor of musicalizing other eps, like others have suggested. Buffy *is* an opera/musical comedy, after all. Same goes for Angel. And why not bring in dance? "Waiting in the Wings" would be incredibly fun to act (and dance) out. As for Hush, yes! Chris in Virigina is right. Hilarity would ensue at the masturbation/stake moment. But it'd have to be done silently, wouldn't it? Wouldn't the audience-participants have to be as silent as (eek) mimes? Except those who were making soundtrack sounds, maybe? A Rocky Horroresque "Hush" would present quite an acoustic challenge, methinks. But Whedonverse fans are nothing if not resourceful.
Okay, I'll stop now. The mind just boggles, though, doesn't it? So many fantastic possibilities. And no-one's mentioned Firefly yet. I wonder if that'd translate as well?

Come on Joss! You've conquered TV, directed a big movie, it's time for Broadway!

Yeah, I know. I actually love Bloomington... but I feel so isolated when it comes to the Buffy stuff... :)
