Erika Slezak's husband is Brian Davies. He was indeed the original Rolf in THE SOUND OF MUSIC. He was also the original Hero in A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE FORUM and was in the original cast of JAMES JOYCE'S THE DEAD (off and on Broadway).

WE WILL ALWAYS BELONG TOGETHER
Mr. Sondheim, meet Mr. Seurat. When Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine were developing their ground-breaking, Pulitzer Prize winning Sunday in the Park with George in 1983, they paid a visit to the original at the Art Institute of Chicago and Mr. Lapine shot this candid photograph of his famous collaborator in front of the source of their inspiration. According to Mr. Lapine, the visit with the painting occured just before the workshop of the musical at Playwr

Seats are never held for rush. Rush is always based on availability. My last post:
Playwrights Horizons has a rush policy for people 30 and under called HotTix. It's a $20 ticket - one per person (each person much show proof of age) - starting an hour before showtime based on availability. Same goes with student rush - $15 per person with a valid student ID an hour before showtime, based on availability.
The Ticket Central box office is open 12pm-8pm every day. I recommend c

A few things:
--SESSIONS was not a Playwrights Horizons show. That was a rental in the Peter Jay Sharp Theater. But it is true that there will not be another show in the Mainstage Theater immediately after SAVED. (It's the last show of the 2007-08 season.)
--There are no loge seats for SAVED.
--Certain shows sold by Ticket Central have a Student No Rush policy where you can buy student tix in advance. However, Playwrights Horizons does not participate in this initi

Duh. Thanks for pointing out that the answer was already in a previous post.
I've seen a few eps of Ace of Cakes - the stuff they make is pretty amazing. I can't imagine how much those specialty cakes must cost.

Playwrights Horizons has a membership for people 30 & Under which basically works out to $20 per ticket. Go to the Playwrights Horizons website and look for "FLEXPASS 4 or 6 Ticket" and click on "More Info."
So you don't have to have a mid-life crisis until you turn 31. :)
