My current obsesssion is a hilarious production of Gilbert and Sullivan's The Mikado. Gilbert and Sullivan plays are fun even when they're performed traditionally, but an Australian group (Essgee Entertainment) put on a slightly campy, absolutely hilarious and more modernized production that is still true to the original idea. The entire production can be found on YouTube (note me if you want links and don't want to search for it).
For some reason, some reviewers hated Drew Forsythe's rendition of Ko Ko. I found him adorably hilarious, portraying a very ineffectual and clueless character. His random sound effects still make me laugh. Plus, poofy pants are awesome.
I actually think he turned out better than my earlier drawing of Pooh Bah, though I spent all night stressing out because the oC file corrupted and I had to save him from being deleted forever by computer gremlins.
