Anyone see COMPANY tonight? How was it?

I am supposed to go to the matinee tomorrow but not sure I can make it. So my last chance will be the closing.

This is making me feel very bereft.

Is the last performance at 3 pm or later, like Sweeney was?

lol siren. I really hope that you make it in time, and can make the post-finale drinking party if there is one re: The Official Raúl E. Esparza 'Spread the Love' Thread, Part 3

I want to hear about how the rush was today, lol. It seems the shows are really "on" lately. They are in the final countdown now. I'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed that we get the front row tomorrow because this is prb my last chance to see the show before the 1st!

Unless they do tape it for PBS, em! Then you can watch it over and over and over and over... re: The Official Raúl E. Esparza 'Spread the Love' Thread, Part 3
Call the understudy / I can't go on tonight / I'm drinking with my buddy / I'm getting good and tight / Before they raise the curtain I'll be higher than a kite / So call the understudy I can't go on tonight

Which will be wonderful for memory's sake, but it'll never be the same. I tend to equate my affair with this show with like, falling in love for the first time, or something. Its hard to let that go!

I wonder, if they do the PBS tape, how it will turn out. It seems like so much of this production feeds off the audience's energy. If it was just taped on its own I wonder if the tone would change. I hope they do it if only for those who didnt get a chance to see the show

It's so incredible how you can go from a show like this, and all the emotion surrounding it, to another show and feel absolutely nothing at all.

hehe, I thought the same thing. I would so do it though, thank God for credit cards. I told the woman I work for that I needed the 1st off because "something came up." It's not a total lie

Today was amazing.

I have been trying to convince myself not to go to the closing, (because I am expected to pay $80 for a Rent ticket), but I think I'm gonna go anyway.

The matinee audience was superb! And if that was the BWW contingent in the first row that started the standing ovation, thanks! I like it much better when the entire cast gets the standup, not just Raul. (Although he deserved it today - lots of Bobby smiles in his performance this afternoon.)

I am amazed as always that the tone and pacing and undertones of this show can change so much from one performance to another. If I could only figure some way to go again before I go on closing night!

It was the girl sitting next to me, and then I followed her. (If you saw a little blonde, that was me!) The matinee audience was great, it was really nice to see.

Dancing! I did see you. You could not have gotten any closer to Raul without being part of the cast. Did you stage door too? I saw lots of pictures being taken - it seemed like everyone had either a camera or a phone.

Haha, yeah. That was a pretty nice seat. I did stagedoor after. It was kind of a mob scene.

WEll it was a mob scene until Raul left, then it calmed down a little.
