Dear Mods,
Why haven't you deleted this thread?

ehh, it's a bit of a change from many of the posts on this thread but....
Yesterday afternoon I went to see Next To Normal and all of the other actors came out to sign (besides Jenn who quickly left), and then the security guard announced that Alice will not be coming out to sign between shows (to which everyone groaned), but then they brought out about 100+ playbills "signed" by her to give to the crowd.
Very nice and thoughtful, however, she could have had anybody write "Alice Ripley" in nice bubble letters on them.
I doubt that's the way she signs when she does sign at the stage door.
No doubt, nice gesture on her part doing her best to please the crowd/fans.

Aww- but she does sign them like that at the stage door actually!
That is exactly how Alice Ripley signs items at the stage door.

Really??? That's awesome! You'd think that would take quite a bit of time but I guess after years of practice and doing it a lot, it takes less time.

She said she does it because it's unique. I also believe that the Alice Show has not been canceled but merely moved to Facebook.
"And yet, something tells me the noise will continue."
LOVE her!

Yeah she says she also does bubble writing so she has time to chat to the fans as she writes.

Well...this guy could definitely serve as a replacement for the Alice Ripley since she's done posting strange videos.

Okay I'm one of the few that didn't find Alice's speech to be THAT strange, but that guy's video was HYSTERICAL!

He's great. Doesn't he have a show about LuPone coming up next month at ARS NOVA?

Alice writes in bubble letters a lot of the time, not just on playbills. Notes, sign-in sheets, etc.

Alice had her children taken away by child services.
"DEAR ORPHANS: DON'T BLAME UR MOTHER. I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED."
"ALL MY CHILDREN HAVE BEEN DELETED FROM THIS PAGE. OF COURSE THEY ARE ALL JUST ADULTS WHO WANT TO BE KIDS, BUT THAT'S ANOTHER STORY."
I love how passive aggressive that is. Yay for Alice. I mean, I would be creeped out to, especially after a comment like this:
"Dear Alice Ripley,
It was a pleasure squeezing myself out of your powerhouse vagina. "
ONE NIGHT ONLY!

Live Onstage!!!
Look at Alice's recently tagged videos on Facebook. How do people have THAT MUCH time on their hands?
I have plenty more to say but ... that's all I'll say.
