::mutters curse words under her breath as she's not done till Dec 22nd::
Mamie, that was just funny like the fact she was like I know this woman and the way she phrasied it is exactly the story you told me and it was just..funny.
Hmm...Sarah, you give me an interesting idea...
Amanda's tutorial series on stage dooring...$20 per lesson
Lesson 1: The polite way to ask for autographs
2: The polite way to ask for pictures
3: Things to ask and how to have conversations w/ actors
4: How to become a good observer to realize rather quickly who's the kind of person who you should just say good job and move on and who would talk to you for a while
5: Becoming such a sweet stage doorer that you get hugs(the funny thing here is that can never be your intention--only happens when you don't aim for it)
6: Remain as polite and nonimposing as ever on repeat visits
And then you graduate and you learn to feel totally comfortable and welcome at the stage door!
That's $120 for the complete series.
Note: These lessons unfortunately do not invoke any lessons on talking to pit people, Amanda still is not able to do that
Good luck Mamie...I got 5 hours, not that much more.
"If there was a Mount Rushmore for Broadway scores, "West Side Story" would be front and center. It snaps, it crackles it pops! It surges with a roar, its energy and sheer life undiminished by the years" - NYPost reviewer Elisabeth Vincentelli
