Actualy she is not on yet. It was some payless commercial.

My cousin's girlfriend works for the same company that does custodial work at the theatre next to the Belasco Theatre... she says that Jordan Knight, Danny Wood, and Jon Knight are taking over for Van Helsing, Bride #1, and Bride #2 respectively. I can't wait to see what Danny Wood does with the role. He's fab.

Danny is amazing. I know somebody who saw the put-in and said he still has the breakdancing moves.

It's threads like this that drive me crazy.

First of all, WHY IS THIS ON THE OFF-TOPIC BOARD? This is the place for frivolous chatter about nothing at all, not the place for serious debate about a performance that has yet to take place. You should all be ashamed of yourselves for contributing to Namo's obsession with making fun of every single poster. Don't you realize that you are the laughing stock of all of the Broadway message boards? I was just over at ATC (where DRACULA is getting some of the best reviews of previews since Bobbie Boland, by the way) and they are all wondering what is happening to the off-topic board at "the other world." (That's what they call BroadwayWorld over there.) One poster said he/she was appalled that people were allowed to discuss a show on the off-topic board and they would never stand for that kind of behavior if they had the power.

And furthermore, Robbiej, to help with your gag reflex, just relax, keep your eyes open and imagine a yummy Popsicle. But mostly, don’t try so hard, it’ll come.

I also heard that during the 5th preview, Jon Knight got stuck during his nude flying scene. At least he was Hangin' Tough.

Well looks like Dracula has postponed it's 16th preview, uh oh!

Posted: 8/3/04 at 12:24pm

I heard that one of the stars was really out in H-wood working out a movie deal and the plane was late, so they postponed

No...they just can't get the damn bubble to work!

Word is they are gonna let Chris Kattan go...something about him, REALLY sucking.

My cousin's brothers best friends uncle who's a grip said that it wasn't what CK was sucking by who he wasn't sucking

I really, really, really want to know if u think Tom Hewitt will be at the stage door a week from Wednesday between performances. I heard he is nice and I really want him to sign my Rocky Horror T-shirt. Do u think he will?

[FindingNamo]

Posted: 8/3/04 at 12:39pm

He is super nice and down to earth. I can't imagine he wouldn't sign anything you give him. I am going to get him to sign my C-In2s when I go back after the show opens to see how it's gotten even better than when I saw the 13th preview.

Is there any truth to the rumor that after throwing a Bloody Mary party for the road producers before the Tonys, the producers of Dracula are going to opt not to tour but rather to have a sit down exclusive production in either Reno or Branson?

I just wish that Melissa Errico bitch will stop pulling that crap with the neckbrack!

I mean...HOW THE F*CK IS HE SUPPOSE TO BITE HER? ON THE THIGH?

[SonofMammaMiaSam]

Posted: 8/3/04 at 12:47pm

And all that hair flipping and breaking of character she does during "Jugular" is soooooo unprofessional!

[ckeaton]

Posted: 8/3/04 at 12:47pm

Wait a second... I thought you said you DIDN'T see the 13th preview!

Hold on... are you who you say you are? I'll bet you're Ben Brantley!

[FindingNamo]

Posted: 8/3/04 at 12:53pm

Oh my god, I flip flopped. What I meant to say was I didn't see it, of course. But I do sound knowledgeable. I learned how to do it from José's pre-seeing-Caroline-or-Change reviews. Only mine's positive.

[EddieVarley]

Posted: 8/3/04 at 12:59pm

Wait, I just heard from my sister's boyfriend's mother's uncle's janitor's sister....that, they are changing the second act finale because the forum members from VAMPYRLUVAS4EVA.Com didn't like how Dracula's cape swayed as he sang the ROCKIN' song , "Do you Hear the Chilin' of the NIGHEEET"?

And I thought once Joel Grey came in as Van Helsing things would settle down.

Word on the street is that the Transylvanian National Committee is trying to shut them down before they get here for their convention.

[SonofMammaMiaSam]

Posted: 8/3/04 at 1:51pm

I heard that the producers were going to shut the show down for a week and tell the press that Tom Hewitt is on vacation for the week that the Transylvanians are in town.

[EddieVarley]

Posted: 8/3/04 at 1:54pm

Just heard, Dick Cheney is taking over as Dracula, the show WILL stay open during the convention.

[SonofMammaMiaSam]

Posted: 8/3/04 at 1:58pm

Isn't he a bit long in the tooth for the role?

[Zola Q. LaPlaya]

Posted: 8/3/04 at 2:06pm

Oh wow. A friend who is on the Producers tour has a cousin who dressed Melissa Errico for a week -- she told me yesterday that she has 11 toes. They only hire similarly genetically understudies and covers for her. Cool, huh?

SPOILER!
