Official Greg Jbara Love Thread — Page 451

Well, to make up for things I wanted to reply to that I forgot about...wanted to say this a couple nights ago, completely forgot...

Barb, the game on his website where you get to play w/ Greg's face is awesome!!(and quite addicting..) Not when you do too much but when you fine little cute funny things to do...give him a big pointy nose, make funny expressions w/ his lips. Actually when I brought his hair down he looked a little like Jack Black..

---

you volunteer, and they've never given you a backstage tour? i know theater is hectic and all, but that seems kind of rude.

---

I've never gotten backstage or even tried, but my theory is they E-mail him saying they are going to see the show on such and such day and are very excited and he being the fabulously wonderful guy he is invites them backstage...Although I could be completely wrong!!
...Wickedrentq you and the nard just bumped into him on the street and got invited true?

Anyway not that he would necessarily want this role, but the thread on the main board sparked the idea, wouldn't Jbara be a great wizard in wicked?

---

Well, unless they're slipping Jbara serious money it must just be through E-mail...

Good luck at your show today, Greg! Even though he's not on the cam, who knows, lol.

First I want to address what Mamie said ... I agree with the person who said it was rude of people at theatres you've *volunteered* for to not allow you a visit backstage. Okay, fine, maybe a volunteer shouldn't expect any form of "payment," but I don't really see going backstage as a form or reimbursement, but rather simple human courtesy, a way of saying "thank you for what you've done for us."

So anyway, here's my advice, fwiw, on the going backstage thing when it comes to Greg and DRS. I wouldn't leave it to chance and wishful thinking and simply hoping Greg would invite me. I think it's best to email him a polite personal note, telling him when you're planning to be at the show and that you'd love to go backstage afterwards if it's possible and fits in with his schedule. I'd try and let him know the date I was planning to come at least seven days in advance, more if possible. Remember that only so many people can get backstage ... it's pretty small back there, especially dressing room areas, so if by some chance a bunch of different people requested backstage visits after the same show, same day, I'd think that would be rather difficult!

From emails I've seen come through from people requesting visits backstage, the common things seem to be that they're complimentary in some way (they enjoy the web cam, OR they've already seen DRS a time or two and enjoyed his performance, OR they haven't seen the show yet but have enjoyed him in another show, or movie or tv role; or maybe some combination of these, etc.), and secondly, they're courteous in asking for a visit backstage ("I realize you're busy and this might not be possible on this date, but it would be wonderful if it could happen...").

Hope that helps! :)

Barb- Thanks for the advice. I didn't ask Greg to invite me backstage due to the fact that I didn't want to seem like nI was prying or something, so I didn't want to seem rude. I guess I won't be invited back then, lol. Oh well, just meeting Greg is enough, but it'd be AWESOME if I did get to go back!

Blu, I don't think he's carrying you, so must be a purse! :)
What you can't see are the matching high heels.

Okay, I see you're all over the top now.
I still have to pack my things (my Dad doesn't like watching that while he is doing something - ordering my Mom - I am just sitting in front of the PC.

So have a wonderful nextweek camdays, Barb, Kerrie, Liz, Cat, Meg, Jennie, Nad...
