An Incident Regarding "The Show"

My wife and I went to see The Robber Bridegroom today. We really enjoyed it. When we were exiting, my wife needed to use the ladies room. She came out and told me of an incident that had just occurred in there. A conversation developed re "The Show" . My wife was asked if she saw it.. She said no and commented the hype was over the top in her opinion.. This woman than went ballistic on my wife. All my wife said was her opinion and nothing against the show itself. This whack job than berated my wife saying she knew nothing of theater and it was the greatest show that was ever on Broadway. She had seen it 3 times and was going to see it again. One wonders why she was slumming at Robber and why she was not seeing todays matinee of The Show. My wife said now even if she was given free tickets she would turn them down. This episode COMPLETELY turned her off the show forever. She was ready to deck this moron for her over the top behavior. I know The Show has its supporters but it is really over the top when you are verbally attacked in a Ladies Room simply because you did not see a stupid show.



I do not post in any of the hundreds of threads about it. I wanted to share this here for this reason. I had zero interest in seeing this before. My wife and I now have less than that.

Was it CATS? Because you'll get a chance to see that again in the summer.

No it was the titanic production now playing at the Richard Rodgers, I would not see Cats again if someone threatened to pull out my fingernails.

When you get attacked in a ladies room simply for saying your opinion that you think a show is overhyped, it is a bit much. We had no intention of taking money out of an IRA to see a show 6 to 9 months from now & pay what we feel are obscene prices & wait 10 hours in line. Sorry, it simply is not for us. She now knows if the subject of this show comes up not to say a word.

TITANIC is coming to the Richard Rodgers!

How was The Robber Bridegroom

It was really a lot of fun. Very enjoyable . Leslie Kritzer stole the show from Pasquale.

Quite honestly, I probably would have said close to the same thing but that woman would have regretted going ballistic on me.



Some people are touchy about this show. It has not been high on my list but I do want to see it. Not a big Miranda fan but say that in front of some people and it is like you have committed a crime.

I'm sorry, which Show are we talking about? Is this about 1776? Because I for one cannot abide anyone who thinks that Show is less than Perfect.

It would seem impossible to accurately judge hype without seeing said hyped show, no?!

was "The Show" she was talking about a sit-in workshop of NERDS?

The nut job was washing her hands and my wife was waiting to do so.

"Thousands of people around the world are being murdered every week due to wars and terrorism, we are facing the threat of a mental case becoming President "



Why are we on a chat board talking about shows when all that is going on in the world?
