Stage Fright
No!
Ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhh
Ohhh ohhh ohhh
Must this be my sacrifice?
My dream's come true,
but at what price?
Stand by, electrics 120.
Go.
Stand by, mist.
Look at your mother.
She's got great pipes
and she's fierce.
So fierce, I'm enchanted.
Electrics 130, go.
One-forty, go.
Take all I ever had,
all I ever knew
All I ever dreamed of
came true
Now I'm forever haunted
: Bravo!
- Mommy, you were so good!
- Give me kisses.
- You're all sweaty.
- Then you get sweaty kisses.
- Ew!
- Be nice to your mother;
she's a big star now.
Your autograph, please,
Ms. Swanson?
Anything for my biggest fan.
All of life's a song to sing
So sing with all your heart
Guess who finally made it
tonight?
TheTimes?
Lawrence Gibbs is absolutely
in love with you.
That's great! That's great.
Congratulations, Mr. Producer.
my love.
- OK.
- Tonight, we celebrate.
- Should I take the twins?
- Sure.
OK, you go with Mr. McCall.
See you later.
Watch where you're goin',
little girl.
Hello?
Ah!
Very funny.
Where'd you get that?
You know you can't be
in here, right?
Better put that mask back,
or they'll have your head.
Oh, honey, we can't do this now.
I have to get dressed.
All of life's a song to sing
So sing with all your heart
Mmm. Oh.
Oh. Not now.
Ah.
Oh!
All of life's a song to sing
We're here, we're here,
we're finally here
The place where we can be ourselves
at least for once a year
The place where we can dance and
feel allowed to sing a song
Performing is our fantasy,
we're here where we belong!
- Hey, it's you
- Long time no see
What was your year like?
I got beaten up
a dozen times
For singing
Stephen Sondheim's rhymes
awfully bad
What school bullies?
That was my dad Aw!
But thankfully
that's in the past
It's time to go sign up
for classes
Finally we're back
where we belong!
We've got costuming
and light design
And classes that help you
refine techniques
So you'll be sure to find
your true artistic voice
Whatever your abilities,
we've got the best facilities
Maintained by local hillbillies
who didn't have a choice
So many options,
so much to choose from
What to sign up for?
So much to improve on
Tho many thingth I'm working
on I've even made a litht
Diaphragm projecthion breathing
audienth connecthion theeking
If I wanna be a thtar
I gotta take more rithkth
Explore my inner narthithith,
emothional catharthith
To expreth mythelf
more clearly
I'm working on my lithp
Hm. Yeah, sure. OK.
We're here, we're here
We're here at Center Stage
The place where we can be ourselves
and no one calls us names
- They call me weirdo
- They call me freakshow
They call me sissy, puthy,
mushy mushy, homo
They call me very flitty, fairy,
fruity, flaming, bitchy, Liberace
- Floozy
- And a slew of other low-blows
All of us have heard these names of
hate, but let me get one thing straight
I'm gay, I'm gay,
but not in that way
Musicals move me and touch me
in ways I can't say
He's gay but not in that way
I sleep with women
But musicals make me
feel gay
I'm gay, I'm actually gay
I don't get hard
when I see T and A
Could be my DNA
Or how I was raised
We don't distinguish here
at Center Stage
We're all gay, we're gay
in all kinds of ways
Some in the bedroom
And some 'cause of
musical plays
- Ow, Sam, you're hurting me!
- Don't touch my hair!
We're here, we're here
- Yes!
- We're finally here
The place where we can be ourselves
at least for once a year
