Let's Put on a Show

While it might be Jake's first time working off-Broadway, he has been going to Broadway shows since he was a kid.

Check out this out from a his recent interview with the NY Times:

"Growing up in Los Angeles, with frequent trips to New York to see relatives, Mr. Gyllenhaal was a theatergoer long before he stood on a stage himself. Sitting in nosebleed seats as a boy, he was dazzled by Patti LuPone vamping through the opening number 'I Get a Kick Out of You' in 'Anything Goes' for Lincoln Center Theater; he then promptly fell asleep. From other musicals he graduated to serious drama like 'Angels in America,' though mostly he went to school plays featuring Maggie, now 34."

[ You 've got to admit there's some irony that Jake reminisces of a childhood memory that involves Cole Porter, legend LuPone and Broadway ; ) ]

There isn't a video of LuPone doing the opening of "Anything Goes" but there is one of her doing the closing number for the Tony's.



Makes you wonder if Jake got the chance to catch the latest revival of the show (with Tony Award winning Sutton Foster who just moved on) and stayed awake.



We know that Jake has been and continues to be a big fan of musicals, so when is he going to do one? Come on Jake - you've put up with you wearing that damn hat, when are you finally going to do Damn Yankees? 

Rock the boat

The Arctic Sunrise is in Wilmington, NC. So awesome. This boat could tell some stories


Austin's got a story to tell, but is it the script or the picture he tweeted?


There is a familiar ring to it. There was something purposeful how he showed. And it's not his first flashing ..... some jewelry.

And he just tweeted : Day 4 of prep. Record voice over with actor. Go shoot scenes as an actor in other episode. Then back to prep and meeting with the boss. about 2 hours ago via Twitter for BlackBerry®

So if this day 4 what's been - needing to take time off for Zac and Nessa? Or who?

With stories of him and Sophia hanging with Zac and Vanessa in NC, and Taylor and Jake in TN , it seems there are so many stories that it gets confusing.

Then again that just might be the point.


Think Austin learned a thing or too working with super secretive Chris Carter but isn't saving it for behind the camera? Talk about covert, but even Carter spills a secret or two if you know what to look for.
