Yes, I'm on foursquare and yes I am obsessed with getting badges. Yes, it takes up time. Yes, I dream about getting badges and new badges coming out and how I will go about getting those badges.

I was even inspired to design a [title of show] foursquare badge.

I am determined to get this badge into circulation somehow. So tossers, be ready.

If you share my addiction, I feel for you. Now please forgive me as I must get to Rockefeller Center by 5am so I can get the Al Roker Badge.

Aunt Susan's Bananapants Banana Bread!

Friends!

Many of you have expressed interest in the banana bread recipe name-checked in this video.

Full disclosure, counselors--this recipe actually comes from our family matriarch, Nancy Blackwell. My sister Julie goes on the record as stating that she's tried many other banana bread recipes, but this one dominates time and again. Both Julie and I baked it up this weekend (the bread, you bongwaters...) and it was as great as ever.

My brother John has been kind enough to blog the recipe for your enjoyment. Thanks, John!

Check it out! You will not be disappointed!!

Bless me [tos]sers, for I have sinned. It's been a million years since my last blog entry, but I'm breaking the silence for a really good reason.

FIrst, there's this:

Now look at this:

Here's the deal - a few months ago, I saw at Ars Nova with the rest of the [tos] gang, and it blew my brains out. I feel deeply in love with and his wild troupe of .

So when Joe asked me to sing an original song he wrote and I jumped at the chance. He is wicked talented and I'm so frickin' lickin' excited to sing with him and his league of super heros on Monday night.

So just come, why don't ya?

In other news please Ginger Williams make Russian nesting dolls of the original [tos] cast. How amazing would that be?

On Wednesday, we joined BROADWAY IMPACT to celebrate the overturnment* of Proposition 8.

Roll clip!

Please follow along:

Susan: On Wednesday U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker ruled that the California's Proposition 8 ballot initiative denying marriage rights to same-sex couples was unconstitutional--

Hunter: In a case that will almost certainly go all the way to the Supreme Court.

Heidi: In the words of Judge Walker:

Susan: Proposition 8 fails to advance any rational basis in singling out gay men and lesbians for denial of a marriage license.

Hunter: Indeed the evidence shows Proposition 8 does nothing more than enshrine in the California constitution the notion that opposite sex couples are superior to same sex couples.

Susan: Or, in the words of Celia Keenan Bolger�s Facebook status:

All: SUCK IT, BIGOTS!!

*Legalese, mother scratchers!! Can you dig it?!?!?!

Several years ago we were asked to open the Actor's Fund 125th Anniversary Gala with an original song. Here is us singing that song at our Feinstein's appearance last year.

The sound is a little scratchy, but it's a bootleg people. That's the charm of bootlegs.

PS. That totally looks like our dressing room at the Vineyard...

A place we'll all be hangin' in very soon.

Whatcha doing Monday night?

Fri, 6 Aug 2010 22:24:39 -0400

Oh I know. You will be...

HERE!!!!!

celebrating the equal rights and the end of Prop 8!

Come celebrate Broadway Impact style and see Miss New York, Susan Heidi, Hunter and Larry rock it.

Jeff would like to go on the record that he will be there in spirit but he unfortunately will be out of town with his partner Michael B on vacation and frankly we can't think of a better way to celebrate gay rights than the two of them off and being gay.

See you gays and gay adjacents on Monday at therapy!

What's all this bout a new show?

Fri, 6 Aug 2010 15:26:03 -0400

So you might have read that we here at the tos camp have been cooking up some new fun...

in the grey lady...

...on bway.com...

...on the ole playbill site...

the domain of broadwayworld...

and our pals at theater with an er mania...

Firstly we are grateful folks are spreadin' the word. In this table flipping, sex tape dropping day and age, it is nice to get some coverage for creating a new piece. (Heidi & Susan...still waiting on that sex tape!)

"So what is this new piece?"

Well, what we can tell you at this point is that we have loved our collaboration together and are thrilled about making something new and that we intend for it to be awesome as opposed to n'awesome. We workshopped a version of the show at the "Shaquille" O'Neill center, liked it and wanted to keep on keeping on.

"Is it a sequel to [title of show]?"

As much as we love Bring Back Birdie and Whorehouse Goes Public, and Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo it is not a sequel.

"Is that all you can tell us, Hunter?"

Well, I can also tell you that hopefully it will rock you and entertain you and make you feel all kinds of delicious feelings. Now quit asking me questions and let Susan and I get back to creating.

I will add that we are so very thrilled and moved to be able to return to the mightiness that is the Vineyard Theatre. That building and the people that make theatre in that building are simply the best. They are the real deal and we are lucky to have a playground to play. That said, if you heart us (and you better or we will find you and we will sit and watch Wipeout together until we're friends) and want to see our new shenanigans the bestest way to secure a chance to see the Vineyard Lab is to rock a membership to the Vineyard. You can do that by clicking:

HERE TO BE THE COOLEST CUTTING EDGE NERD IN TOWN

If you are po but proud, we suggest the theatre artist membership or Under 30, which ain't a bad deal.

We are supes exciting to be together and creating again. We hope you guys are excited too.
