Don't normally read the thread but I had to say: I saw Raul in Company again tonight, I didn't think it was possible to be more effective on "Being Alive" than the first time I saw the show. He proved me wrong.
It was a phenomenal performance throughout, and that last moment was unbelievable.
Hey everyone! I don't really post much anymore, but I used to visit this thread (or at least the first part) a lot. Anway... I saw Company last night, and it was one of the most amazing theatrical experiences I've ever had. I was considering posting a review on the main board, but decided against it, since there seem to be so many. So just thought I'd share... I was expecting to like the show, but I was completely blown away. And Raúl was sooo nice at the stage door. Okay, I'm done. Yay Company!
I was planning on going when it was first announced -- before Raúl signed on -- because I think Seth is one of the funniest people ever, but I promised to be somewhere else that night and I can't really back out.
I honestly thought that was real for about the first half of the article. At first I was like "no, Raúl, not a jukebox musical!" and I was sad that La Jolla is far away, but I was really excited that he and Julia would be on stage together. Then I looked at the dates and I was like "so they must know when Company's gonna close..." and then scrolled down to see what was revealed.
