ANONYMOUS letter, plain white paper, typed, possibly eventually identifiable only by the sender's typed "HJ" closing initials, is making the backstage rounds of B'way's hit musical "All Shook Up," a love story based on Elvis' music, which is playing at the Palace Theater.
This unsigned letter writer, who apparently knows some of the cast, went to see it again the other night and: "A few hours before the show, I opened a door (the wrong one I know) back in B'way & 47th Street and was stunned . . . I found a heap of mostly naked bodies doing what I had hardly ever seen before. Jungle room indeed . . . an out and out orgy going on . . . Besides some people in the show, there was a very big actor who I don't think has had anything at all to do with the show."
The peeper adds he has newspaper friends — not me; I'm not one of them — but if it's decided he should not report this, then he suggests someone "simply put a sticker on a corner of one of the pictures of your star on one of the posters in the front of the theater. I'll check most late afternoons or eves & if it's up within a week or so, I won't tell my writer friends."
I don't know who this showbiz Deep Throat is, who his writer pals are, who his friends in the musical are, what he may/may not have seen or if any sticker got stuck on any star on any poster. I only know I've seen this letter. As so has the whole bunch backstage. I also know this young dynamite company of 25 are energetic on that stage. Who could know, they might also be that energetic off it.

Posted: 9/19/05 at 10:54amor it could be a joke.
Nothing precious, plain to see, don't make a fuss over me. Not loud, not soft, but somewhere inbetween. Say sorry, just let it be the word you mean.

Oh lord.
Are the producers trying to stir up buzz to get seats filled?

Posted: 9/19/05 at 11:01amHow is that going to get seats filled? It's going to get people trying to find that door to peek through, but they're not going to buy a ticket.

Posted: 9/19/05 at 11:03amThis definitely made me laugh. I don't believe it, but it's funny.

Posted: 9/19/05 at 11:19amSee you're not following the producer's screwed up logic that got All Shook UP into this mess to begin with...

I usually don't give heed to or read gossip, but the title alone made this too funny not to read. This is the best laughter I'll have all day!

A dancer might dream to see her name in lights and mean it,
but all she really dreams is to make someone
else feel the way she did when she first saw a dancer.

Posted: 9/19/05 at 1:02pmWell, there's one way to keep your interest up from waning in a show that you know sucks. "Oh crap, I have to go and do this again? Ah, well, at least I'll get off at the orgy afterwords."
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

Posted: 9/19/05 at 1:06pmI don't think this publicity stunt will help drive up ticket sales. I think the only way to drive up ticket sales is to somehow have a nude scene for Cheyenne in the show. That will definitely drive business!
"It does what a musical is supposed to do; it takes you to another world. And it gives you a little tune to carry in your head. Something to take you away from the dreary horrors of the real world. A little something for when you're feeling blue. You know?"

Namo!
Not one peep.
This was from the Post, I DOUBT it actually happened.
And if it did SO WHAT. I just hope the boys were using protection.
See Namo. Larry Kramer would be proud.
In fact, he might buy new overalls.

haha.
if this is true (doubtful), just another reason to love the asu cast- they find interesting ways to stay fit! They're saving money from BDC and Steps on Bway!
awkward.
