I do the opposite at times...I have season tickets to the two main theatres here in Seattle, very close to the stage. If I am not totally "into" the show I will actually move BACK! To the back of the theatre that usually has 10 or more empty rows (not every show has that many)
Then I can get antsy in my seat and have no one behind me that I may be bugging.(And some shows the last rows are not far enough back and I end up leaving!)

Wonder how the person behind YOU felt? I am always stuck behind the head bobbers..right and left and right and left...

Remember this is what Adam and Anthony do for WORK..this is how they get their paychecks...support their families, pay their bill/taxes...just like the rest of us have to do. THIS IS A JOB.
Someone offers you probably a large amount of cash to go do something you like and can do well, would you turn it down? Doubt it.

Back in the stone ages when I was in High School, a guy (a real rocker type), was writing the lyrics to Queens Bohemian Rhapsody on his PeeChee (boy that ages me!)...
Mama,just killed a man,
Put a gun against his head,
Pulled my trigger,now hes dead,
Mama,life had just begun,
But now Ive gone and thrown it all away-
Mama ooo,
Didnt mean to make you cry-
If Im not back again this time tomorrow-
Carry on,carry on,as if nothing really matters-

Bar 41 wont be full of fans, it is closed to the public during these times (on Saturdays it closes at 4 and on Sundays since RENT is dark the abr isnt even open) and the hotel only has about 30 rooms and you are more or less checked when you walk in that you ARE staying there when the bar is closed (there is nothing but a bar and the guest rooms so no need for the public to be inside). The lobby is a tiny maybe 12X15 room and there isnt anywhere for the public to "hang out" when the bar is close

My daughter and I were also at RENT Saturday the 25th, we went for the matinee AND the evening performances, row B both times. (we are actually in the background to MotorTink pixs above!)
All I have to say is I have seen probably close to 1,000 musicals in 20+ years (RENT 9 times), and these performances were the cherries on top. Plain and simple, my favorite theater experiance ever.
I think Adam and Anthony were beyond perfect.
We stayed in Hotel 41 right next door to the theater

I am seeing RENT this Saturday, matinee AND evening performances. Flying in from Seattle with my daughter. After reading last week about Adam being out one night from sickness I was a tad worried it might "go around"...wouldnt that be a bummer?! (I know he wasnt a HIT or even very good in the part but I flew in from Seattle to see Drew Lachey as Mark and he was out that night!)

I saw this show on Sunday.
The monster's makeup is horrible. Hardly green and looked like it was just smeared on him unevenly.
Rogers hair is actually bigger in the production..and it looks appropriate, could have even been bigger and still worked.(I adored him as Dr. Frankenstein.

Suttons knockers are small..small enough where they change the "My, what big knockers you have" line to "My, what nice knockers you have". Her blond hair loo

There are 7 of them (we have the 5 seats in the row directly behind them) they come tipsey from dinner every time! They are approx. 60 years old, always giggling, talking and whispering into eachother ears during the shows. They sit forward, they move and will lean all the way to the right or left to see something o
