I will never get to see Alan Cumming and Cyndi Lauper in Three-Penny Opera. But I got to see them on the Tonys and if you missed it, you can see the clip below the cut. Cyndi Lauper is heart-breaking and Alan is, well, Alan is still the love of my imaginary life.
Bonus! Bonus! Bonus!
Alan singing I Don’t Care Much and again with professional camera angles. Oh and here — go crazy Leslie! — Alan Cumming with Joel Grey! Together! (Are you wondering if I waste hours looking up Broadway shows to see if people have smuggled clips up? The answer is YES!)
I have two kids and a delightfully odd husband, Brett. My children are Noah (born to us in 1997) and Madison (born to her first mom, Pennie, in 2004 and brought to our family through a domestic, open adoption). They are my inspiration and also the reason I don't get more done around here.
I'm a writer and sometimes I get published, which is a nice thing. I write for joy, I write for money and when I'm very lucky, both things happen at the same time. My work appears in national publications including Yoga Journal, Disney's Family.com, Utne, Wondertime, Brain Child and Salon. Currently I am working on a book about my daughter's adoption and seeking representation for the proposal. I also own Smart Cookie Communications with my husband.

I won’t get to see it either, sigh. BUT! I did get to see AC in Caberet. Which kind of makes up for it.
I hadn’t thought to go looking on YouTube for smuggle Broadway clips. There goes my weekend!

I love Alan Cummings. Did you see him in “Reefer Madness”? His standup is a lot of fun, although it could have been the black kilt he was wearing.
