(See what I am saying?): Off Broadway (act II.)

February 23, 2004

Off Broadway (act II.)

If anyone should ever come to New York City for a weekend and doesn't want to pay or have the time to take in every show in town, all they need to do is walk across the street from the Port Authority Bus terminal. In the apartment building here, you can hear every show currently - or that has ever played - on and off Broadway, all at once, all the time.

Here, my wake up calls are musical numbers sung in full concert pitch by my roommates in the shower. This morning was particularly exciting - a medley of the sound of music, little shop of horrors and Oklahoma. All through the night i hear the culmination of 50 years of broadway acts drift though the heat ducts. The women somewhere above me sound like angels in the air vents late at night and the melodies drift with the heat in the dark. Above me a man plays jazz on a piano at odd hours. No wonder my dreams, - fully choreographed - are filled with technicolor nazis, man eating plants, and lots and lots of blush.

Actors do nothing quiet and without emotion. Conversations with them can be exhausting. My own speech is already starting to rhyme. Soon it will also start to have a rhythm and and eventually a chorus and a refrain. I Listening to them in the shower can be deafening. Tally is in his bedroom now performing his voice exercises, switching between singing the scales in falsetto and doing something with his lips that sounds like a variable speed food processor in the key of C. What i first thought was domestic violence one evening turned out to be script rehearsal for Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. The walls here are thick plaster, but are still no match for the volume and frequency that comes barreling out of the mouths of the tenets here. It a true auditory cornucopia at any given moment. The piano player upstairs has switched to a ragtime number, in the apartment below me the lion king is now showing, and later tonight, as i am serenaded to sleep with the echoes in the walls that sounds like a kaleidoscope looks, i will enjoy my balcony seat right here off Broadway.
