yup, thanks Emcee! I found the website, got the box office #, will call tomorrow when it's open!
*squeals*
I didn't see before! You posted my pictureeeeeeeee!
Yep!! It's such a great picture- how could I NOT post it??
Adam pictures are the best!
When that was first released, it scared the sh*t out of me. I was like "WHAT DID THEY DO TO MY ADAM?!?!!?"
Clearly I turned out to be juuuuuuuust fine with it.
I didn't even know it was Adam when I saw the picture!! At least you were smart enough to figure out who it is!!
*sighs* He looks SO good there- even better if you him play the Emcee!
and then of course there's the end of Act 1...

hahahha. i got kidna scared when i saw that picture for the first time too.
LOL! I saw it posted somewhere with a subject line that was something like "wtf?" It was here, on the Aida board, theatermania, broadway.com, playbill - all within a few hours of each other. I printed it out and proceeded to pace around my kitchen shaking my head for about an hour.
*sigh*
end of act one!
I remember at intermission, I said to my mom, "Um, did I just see his ass???".... I SO wasn't expecting it!!
ha! I saw Jon Secada with my mom. She knew I was going to be back to see Adam, and she made some kind of mocking comment. Good thing she wasn't with me when I did see Adam. She'd never let me live down my reaction.
Haha!! I'm sure you were spazzing uncontrollably!!
Good times...
::sigh:: I didn't get to see him then
Apparently I am seriously missing out on something...
I was with TM Cara. I sat there, grinning foolishly for a good ten seconds. Then I looked at her and squealed. Mature, huh? Then I gave her a big hug to thank her for coming with me. My brother was there, too. He looked at me and shook his head.
Ah! Act 1 finale! Seeing Adam in it was the first time I saw the show, so I didnt know about it. During intermission I just starred at the spot he was standing. Thank God that was right at the end of the act, i had time to recover.
lol, the shock factor.

I'm surprised Jon Secada's ass didn't scar you for life so much that you didn't come back. It was definately the scarriest few seconds of my life.
hahaha! Mine, too. But, I knew it could only get better from there.

i'm so stupid. i was like:
me: 'mom adam's in cabaret!! *squeals*'
mom: that's nice dear.
me: can i go?
mom: if you save up for it
me: i have less than i month!! i'm not going to be able to do that in time!
mom: get student rush seats.
me: who will go with me? dad won't.
mom: i will.
me: *makes a scared face*
LOL!
I stuck it out with my mom. I think she almost had a heart attack. When Adam's run was initially only supposed to be two weeks, there was no way I was getting to go. My mother forbid me from seeing the same show twice in like... twelve days. When they extended it was very much like this. "Mom, I haven't seen this man in three and a half years. I'm going." She realized it was important to me.
I begged my mom for my birthday to get me tickets. Starting in October, when I first heard he was going to be in it, I kept begging her and begging her to go before November 2nd, when it was originally going to close. Then it was extended to the 17th, and still nothing. So when it extended into January, I just kept getting on her case and she FINALLY was like "Ok, I'll get you tickets".
She hated it and was upset she paid the money. It was one of the greatest experiences ever (not to mention the first time seeing Adam!!)
Really? She hated it? To each her own, I suppose. While I was there, I was like "oh God, mom's hating this, I know it." She liked it a lot, and my mom's NOT easy to please. That show was one of my favorite experiences, too, especially because of the atmosphere. I mean, it was great to see Adam again and all, but after the inital shock/excitement, it was all about how that show could just whisk you right out of New York for a few hours, and how it could give you chills and REALLY make you think. I was listening to it the other day - it was chilly and rainy here, just like it was the first time I saw the show - and I remember thinking how mesmerized I was the second I walked into 54. *sigh* I miss Cabaret!
*sigh* I miss it too. BroadwayDiva -it was your first time seeing Adam? Mine too!
