I think if a star is headlining a show " GYPSY starring PATTI LUPONE" and if she is out, then the audience has every right to complain and get money back. If it's something like WICKED and the standby goes on then who gives a fck. I'm sure both Elphabas are equally qualified.


So Lauren Bacall me, anything goes! *wink*

The most recent Gypsy revival was during my first year living here. My sister came up, well not to visit but to see Gypsy. Before the show there was an announcement that 'Ms. Lupone had injured her ankle earlier in the week so In tonight's performance, [pause] the character of Mama Rose woudl be wearing comfortable shoes.'

There was a huge gasp at the pause and a huge sigh and laughter at the end.

I have to say that Lindsay Mendez was out when I saw Wicked, and even tho she was the reason I was seeing it again, Donna Vivino was not just amazing but easily one of my favorite Elphabas, not that I have seen all that many.

You know what else sucks after matinees? Stage-dooring. I have to go back on another occasion like an idiot.

I know right? It's not worth going at all if you can't have a ten-second interaction with a complete stranger with a physically exhausting job. You want a nap or some dinner on your two show day, Andrea Martin? Well, screw you and your take out. You owe the people every moment of your time.

Sorry, troll, but Kelly2 was being sarcastic.

Should we expect you to be at the stage door for IF/THEN every performance next year?

I told you I don't live in NY but when I visit three times a year I like to spend my free time outside the Richard Rodgers theatre.

BTW calling someone a troll is racist. It implies I have nappy hair.

How did you arrive at the conclusion that being a troll is in any way equated with your hairstyle?

Either you don't know what a troll is in internet lingo or you are looking to play a race card for some bizarre reason.

I know what a troll is I'm not retarded. I had a bunch of them when I was a child but I left them outside and they all got ruined, so I kept the jewels and tossed the bodies just like an italian.

Generally I do avoid matinees because there are certain shows that the lead will not be in them (exp. Jersey Boys) because the vocal is too tough to handle two shows in a day. I am also more of a night time person so I prefer seeing a evening show and then making a night of it in NYC after the show. I have seen a few very good matinee performances, one example was "Hairspray" many years ago.

Words don't deserve that kind of malarkey. They're innocent, neutral, precise, standing for this, describing that, meaning the other, so if you look after them you can build bridges across incomprehension and chaos. But when they get their corners knocked off, they're no good anymore…I don't think writers are sacred, but words are. They deserve respect. If you get the right ones in the right order, you can nudge the world a little.

Okay, we've just crossed the border from Insanityworld into BeyondRidiculousLand.

Don't feed this construct anymore.

(I don't know, is "construct" a racist term too? I hope so.)


Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

"I am also bitter because the moderators took down my personal Chicago The Musical at the Hollywood bowl review post with pictures I took just because it was not a rave. "

You are bitter because you are a moron. And your post was removed because you posted illegal pictures. Your writing in infantile and your web site is a piece of garbage.

Why do you feel you are owed anything, by any one on this site?


Troll.

And the first comment from his friend was:

" Graig, that is a beautiful story and I wish you the best of luck with your continued recovery."


Obviously he has a substance abuse problem....

Wow...

Funny, my friend posted this on twitter the other day for some people who had crossed a line with another celebrity. It also reminds me of the girl I saw on My Crazy Obsession who works at night so she can go celebrity stalking all day in NYC. It totally fits here. It is from Wil Wheaton:

The best part of his story is that he thinks he developed some self respect because after 4 failed attempts to get her to sign his stupid poster, for attempts 5 and 6, he had a mindless lackey do it for him. What a pathetic, empty life he must lead.

And then certain people on here wonder why obsessive fans scare us so much... Just because it's not directly impacting my life doesn't mean it can't concern or terrify me on a personal level. I feel bad for those celebrities and actors who have to encounter this self-entitled POS.
