Posted: 7/17/04 at 10:33pm*perks up* Oh, are we reviving this thread? I was gonna go somewhere else, but if that's the case...
#502re: 'Aida' - 7/9/04
Posted: 7/17/04 at 10:34pmYeah, if my memory serves me correctly, she was AWESOME. It was a long time ago, though.
#503re: 'Aida' - 7/9/04
Posted: 7/17/04 at 10:55pmIs Thursday's part listed on that flyer Emcee? Who was she -u/s Standby etc.
#504re: 'Aida' - 7/9/04
Posted: 7/17/04 at 10:57pmNope, I'm just looking at my window card that's hanging on my wall. It has the logo, and the entire Original Cast listed below it. You know, like: Hyperion Theatricals presents AIDA, a new musical, etc.... Starring Heather Headley, Adam Pascal, Sherie Rene Scott, more principals, etc... then the rest of the cast in alphabetical order. No parts listed. I didn't save my playbill, and I don't remember if she was the standby or the understudy... sorry!

Posted: 7/17/04 at 11:02pmibdb.com says that Thursday was the Aida standby on opening night.
#506re: 'Aida' - 7/9/04
Posted: 7/17/04 at 11:08pmWell I certainly didn't go opening night... and wait. Heather had to have gone on opening night? That's worded very strangely. Maybe it means that from opening night to a certain point she was the standby?

Posted: 7/17/04 at 11:10pmIt means that if Heather had gotten ill or injured and someone had to cover her for the rest of the performance, Thursday was the one who was waiting, just in case. (That's a wierd name, Thursday)

Posted: 7/17/04 at 11:13pmI hear that a lot about standbys. People always seems to like them better, for some reason. (Eden, Cheyenne)

Tell GITF I said hi, Emcee!
I don't actually know, I'm just repeating what I've heard to keep the conversation going. :)

Posted: 7/17/04 at 11:34pmYou guys can get a spork at KFC! Just order a couple side dishes and they give you them! Of course, they're plastic so I have no clue how well they will work.

Posted: 7/17/04 at 11:38pmFor the singing into, it will; but I was thinking about the getting it signed aspect of it! I don't think I've asked anyone to sign something that was plastic. Sharpies do seem to work on anything, though, so who knows.

Posted: 7/17/04 at 11:40pmGet two sporks and test the sharpie on one before you go, just to make sure. I wonder if he's ever had any spork-signing requests before? Probably not...
#516re: 'Aida' - 7/9/04
Posted: 7/17/04 at 11:41pmI don't think there's a KFC anywhere near where I live... but I did find a spork in my house! Read my post about it on the spork thead OT. I don't feel like typing it out again... I do have one, but I am also going to keep searching.

Posted: 7/17/04 at 11:43pmHow do you live without KFC?! I love their mashed potatoes. their mac and cheese is good too. Ugh, now I'm hungry.
#518re: 'Aida' - 7/9/04
Posted: 7/17/04 at 11:46pmThere might be one like half and hour from here... I'm not really sure. I may have to venture up there to find a spork!
