Patrick, now I am doubly bereft.
p.s. My replacement illusion will be that you particled the Joss
Whedon Musical based on my comment in the open thread. Please don't
disillusion me on that one.
I remember in my early days of finding this very blog, I came across a thread in which a contributor identified themselves as "Arthur C Clarke" (I believe in my heart it was he).
I tell you, a frisson (or what ever a really big frisson is called) of fangirl squeeful excitement went through me at the time.
Ad Astra Sir Arthur
Xopher,
That's the sort of news you don't get in the antipodean colonies.
I'm not even sure we have had a run of Rent here (Sydney). If we did, it certainly didn't feature Neil Patrick Harris.
(d'oh, checking Wikipedia I find it was here only last year)
Re 312: Whedon's music
Mr. Whedon has in fact, written a musical called "DOCTOR HORRIBLE'S SING-ALONG BLOG" (!):

During the strike I started writing a musical intended as a limited internet series, 3 episodes of approximately 10 minutes each. Writing with me was my brother Jed, his fiancee Maurissa, and my other brother Zack. To my shock and surprise, we finished it. To my greater shock and surprise, we managed (with the help of many people I'll be praising at length soon) to drag it into preproduction (yes, just as DOLLHOUSE was given a start date two months away and all my comics were due.) And today, after a grueling week of writing everything ever while trying to be a producer, I got to start shooting. A musical.
This much I will say: It's the story of a low-rent super-villain, the hero who keeps beating him up, and the cute girl from the laundromat he's too shy to talk to. And I'm having the time of my life.
"DOCTOR HORRIBLE'S SING-ALONG BLOG"
Neil Patrick Harris.....as Dr. Horrible
Nathan Fillion..........as Captain Hammer
Felicia Day.............as Penny
And a cast of Dozens!

I didn't even know NPH (as opposed to PNH) or NF could sing!
