Now, we are here.

Well, no longer here (here being the Helen Hayes theater) but rather back at the hotel where

elanor_isolde and I are still omg-giddy over the show.

And no, we haven't seen Dr Who's Utopia ep yet, so please no spoilers in comments.

Giddy. Yes.

Want Kerry Butler's dress.

And leg warmers.

Want to see the show another two hundred times, which is about as many times as I've seen the film.

( Everything else is very spoilery for the show and so is behind a cut.... )

Oh! And I claimed Xanadu as my movie prompt in

reel_spn and

cathybites, who is so wonderful, is going to do art for it! Omg, when you guys see......

And yes, Kira did wear pink beribboned barettes in her hair! Revive the trend, people!

Is here. And what a good childhood it was! Weebles, Pac Man, Goonies, General Hospital circa 1981, vinyl Charlie's Angels lunchboxes, those barettes with ribbons in them - it's all there.

As the blurb says, they were a craft thing that we all did after, or around the time that, we saw Olivia Newton-John in Xanadu. I spent a tonne of time in my parents' breakfast room making them - they're long gone now, but if someone had the instructions, I might just make them again.

Wouldn't wear them, but I would make them.
