A Neurotic Question...

Do stars of Broadway shows occasionally take off nights to go see the openings of other Broadway shows? (Kind of a tounge-twister; but noneltheless it is troubling me.) Okay, Let me be more blunt...I am seeing The Producers on the same night Fiddler is opening. Could this possibly be a problem?

I wouldn't worry about it. Usually Broadway people do not take off to see the opening night of other performers, unless it is a husband/wife situation.

And I don't think it would be appropriate for Lane/Broderick to take a night off of such a limited engagement because of another show.

And everyone and their grandmother has seen Fiddler. I'm sure they can wait.

Not even for a husband/wife thing. When Sarah Jessica Parker opened in Wonder of the World, Matthew Broderick was appearing in The Producers. He only attended the opening night party afterwards.
