Posted: 12/31/04 at 1:08pmI was at the matinee and evening lotteries for HAIRSPRAY on Wednesday, December 29. Anyone see either performance? While waiting for the evening lottery, I got autographs from Bruce Vilanch, Tracy Miller, Mary Bond Davis, Carla J. Hargrove, and Shannon Durig, who went on for Carly Jibson.

I was at both shows that day :)
The first show that day there was a slight problem with a set piece and for Good Morning Baltimore the 4 council member gals weren't on stage for "I know every step I know every song" (just a side fact)

Posted: 12/31/04 at 7:53pmWhy weren't the girs on stage during "Good Morning Baltimore"? Thats weird that all of them would be gone when they are suppoed to be there from the very begining of the song. What set piece had issues too?

As I said in my frist post there was a problem with the set, so they didn't make it on.. it was fixed by the second show that day.
also Shannon also went on on thursday's 2pm show as well, and most likly the 8 as well.

Posted: 1/1/05 at 8:45ami was told the screen/drop thing didnt rise like it was supposed to, until near the end of the song, so they all kinda got stuck back there for a while. when it finally moved, the rest of the set moved into place (the houses) and everybody was back on their mark by the time theyre supposed to be in that V shape.
