I got to meet him...ish. He said hi to me outside of the theatre one night. Then he signed the sweetest thing in my book, and... then he passed me on the street. But I like to tell myself he didn't recognize me. Then I saw him running across the street holding a bunch of hangers with jackets on them. Haha.

So, I guess... not really. Haha.

That's okay, though. I had a great chat with him at the benefit! And it meant a lot that he signed my book.

Aww, glad to hear it! I had been looking for you on Saturday afternoon at the stage door, but I didn't see you. Well, I didn't see the show either but I was on my way to Sweeney Todd and thought I'd keep an eye out for you. No, I didn't see any of the cast (would have felt kinda odd). So, post your pic and tell me all about it!!!

Did you meet him at the stage door? YAY! I can't wait to hear details and see the picture!

Wait, did I miss the book being posted? What did he say about The Normal Heart?

Elphie, glad you had a great time (and got to meet Raul *jealous*)!

Oh okay! Aww, yeah. I was really touched by what he wrote.

I think I should go back to bed, though. Obviously my brain isn't awake yet. Shesh.

I'll PM it to you.

Maybe I'm crazy but I just feel uncomfortable posting it out where everyone can read it. I feel like that would be wrong of me.

Who knows, though.

Oh Ang! So you did see Sweeney Todd? How was it? Did your friend enjoy it?

So, Company, huh? I can't wait for this!

I'm so excited that he already has a job lined up after Chitty closes!

Oh man.

Raul plus John Doyle equals heaven. I really have nothing to say.

Excuse me...I'm off to go gravel at Doyle's feet for a part in this production. Hell, I'd even play the maid to be in THIS show!

I wonder if tickets for this will be hard to come by. I'm definitely planning a trip to see this.

Ok, who wants to drive me to Ohio? I'm gonna go, I just don't know how I'm getting there. And as soon as tickets go onsale, someone tell me. I love me some Company and John Doyle makes me happy inside. Chrys or G, who's with me? Hehe...I am so planning ahead. I feel like a little girl ever since I saw Pride and Prejudice, it's kinda weird. Ok, I'll refrain from squee-ing.

So I'm spending my spring break in Cincinatti. I saw his picture on the main page and got all excited. Then I was like "Cincinatti?!" But it's Raúl! Doing Sondheim! I'm so there!

Who wants to go to opening night with me on March 16th? Or the two previews before? I need to go during spring break and I don't want to go alone.

*YAWN* I'm so sleeepyyyyyy.
I'll post my story and picture tonight when I'm not in the middle of class.
I loved RENT, btw, Ang. Definitely one of the more amazing nights of my life, that's for sure.

I cannot WAIT to hear him sing "Being Alive" and "Barcelona"!

If you guys buy your tickets soon, let me know if there is still a good selection left! I'm going for sure on the 19th but I plan to rush it once or twice that weekend!

Not exactly. I'll be saving up the next 4 months to make it work. And traveling to Ohio for spring break is definitely cheaper than Cancun.
