Gongey’s BlogDescribing the Indescribable World of The Gongey

All things Gongey

A Gongey is a special being. Having been created in the fiery furnaces of hell...wait...let me start over.
Back when collars were huge and pants were in the shape of bells I was born. The year was 1977. After 10 long months of gestation I was ready to join the world and make my contribution.
This blog is a record of my life. Good, bad and generally mundane!

So my choice of a post this time unfortunatly is not a movie Critique. So sorry =D

anyways so lately i have become way into Drama/theatre. And The disease has infected my whole body and mind as a ravaging  monster gobbling everything having to have the slightest incling of the fine arts. (i’m even memorizing a Monologue for the school play!)
what i am mostly getting to is, Do you have a favorite Play or Musical that you would like to share?
and if not is there anything that sparks your interest
F.Y.I
although i have many favorites i really love Sweeney Todd. Whats way cool is its coming out as a movie on the 21 of december, and its directed by Tim burton and Johnny Depp is in it! i am very stoked for this one!
anyway Blog away Chillins

  2. I love Phantom and les mis I have seen them both and love them. I have seen the promo for sweeny todd and am watching to understand the story..is it that he was innocent and accused of murder and when he comes out of prison he kills who put him there????

  3. Redneck Gongey says:

    I like that play about that one guy that goes to that one place and does that thing…you know the one I mean……

  4. mommy gongey says:

    I know exactly what you mean

    Sweeney Todd is about this man who had a beautiful wife and a year old daughter when a judge sends him to australia with a trumped up charge

    He comes back saved by a guy named anthony and brings him back to london. This time he came back with a vengance
    the judge hurt his wife in short and ruined his life
    so he came back to kill everyone because he thinks everyone deserves to die.
    So the lady Mrs lovett the maker of londons worst pies in london and him go in cahoots with each other and puts the people he kills in her pies and she becomes the best pie maker in london
    it is so good though!
    i cant wait

    It’s the British version of Texas Chainsaw Massacre…part 2 at least. Yes I am very stoked for that show as well. One of my favorite movie/play/books is Count of Monte Cristo. I love that one.

  7. Merry says:

    Hey ahhhuuuugha, the jugde rapes and kills Sweeney Todds wife, this is what causes the unsatiable vengence.

    I’ve seen Phantom and les mis also, loved them! I really want to see the broadway play Wicked.

    As far a shakespear goes I really like ‘much ado about nothing’ (Beatrice and Benidict) and ‘The taming of the shrew’ (Kate is awesome). I had a drama class in High School where we had to act out scences from the taming of the shrew and it was so fun, only thing I ever got %100 on… hmm what does that mean?

    I love Jane Austins, Pride and Predjudice too. The man of La Mancha (a play that made me cry). Was really good… has that one song, to reach the unreachable star, I love that. Then there is always Beauty and the Beast.

    Syd, have you ever gone to the Desseret star theator? They do spoofs and are so funny!

    Now I need to see a play soon! Who wants to go with?

  8. Undead Gongey says:

    Mary i totally do!!
    i havent ever gone to Desert star theatre but i want to so bad
    I love seeing plays.
    I am reading Much ado about nothing now
    and I was in taming of the shrew
    i’ve seen Pride and Predjudice AND man of La mancha
    And Beauty and the beast i have yet to see
    my best friend was in it though.
    oh and the judge supposedly kills Sweeney’s Wife
    you need to see it to really understand
    i have the music to it right now
    oh man its so good

  9. Merry says:

    Home for the Holidays is playing Nov 30 – Dec 22 at the Desert Star Theatre. It would be really fun. Well have to talk to Gongey to see what what be a good time for him.

  10. Undead Gongey says:

  11. mommy gongey says:

    I want to go!! Rick is not much of a play goer and I love plays.

  12. YOU guys suck…I wanna go and you are making me so sad!

  13. Gongey says:

    Well, it sounds like we need to make a date of it. Whoever wants to go let me know!

    So far only Melanie and I want to go. I don’t think Mary or Syd would like it very much, so I am not going to buy their tickets.

    Seriously though, whoever wants to go let me know.

  14. Merry says:
