Mean Girlsl Fan Day PErformance Question

[theaterwiz414]

Posted: 10/3/18 at 8:45am

So I can't even put into words how much I want to see the performance today. Someone told me the performance is sold out, but I am one person looking for one ticket. Would it be worth waiting at the theater for a few hours to see if they have any more tickets left over? Even standing room, I'm not picky, I just want to be at that performance so.badly. I would do anything to be there. Thoughts?

probably not, with fan day performances, they’re very strict about tickets. theoretically, it’s sold out because all the tickets were given away from free but it couldn’t hurt to check. maybe they have some seats from people who aren’t going to show up but i doubt it. if you have time, go maybe 20 minuets before curtain call and check at the box office

Excuse me, but I am NOT  a stan. I’m so far from a stan. Reconsider your phrasing please.

If this is directed at me and calling me a stan, you don’t know what “Stan” means because I am in no way what anyone would call a stan. Please stop.

For a non-stan, you certainly seem to be overly concerned about the designation...

No, it was directed to the person i quoted who went off on some ridiculous tangent about how stans are ruining Broadway. I was in fact defending you, but okay?

It was the gif of Regina saying Shut Up but Broadway World hates the post apparently.

I suggest you drop the attitude. Go back to tumblr, your mean girls fan account probably needs updating.

“stan” is a term that gained traction in the last few years that means an overzealous and stalker like fan.  in the broadway community, stans are younger teen girls. being called a stan, is generally seen as a bad thing now as they are disrespectful to broadway actors/actresses. for example, in keeping with the mean girls theme, there are stans of an ensemble member named ben cook are known for being obsessive and have been rude to other cast members. and because of them, he doesn’t stage door anymore.

Absolutely nothing, nada, in that post is applicable to myself. I would never stalk an actor, I have never gotten angry about someone not coming out of the stagedoor—I respect the actors.  I am also not a teenage girl with a tumblr account. I am a 26 year old with two jobs and a deep appreciation for theater. So the stan calling can stop. Thank you.

This is ridiculous. A stan doesnt have to be a teenager, most of us dont do that.

I am not a stan and this was definitely not one sided. How exactly did I threaten you? You were the one who provoked me and ignored my pleas to not call me a stan.
