This past Friday, Billy Elliot didn't collect. It was at their 1,000 performance and they gave out pins to the audince which read something like: I attended the 1,000 Performance of Billy Elliot. The audience went nuts when told, you'd think we were on Oprah when she gave out cards.
While it was sweet, I'd have rather given money to BC/EFA.
The next day we saw Chicago with Christie Brinkley and they were collecting. The were selling her limited poster -- signed for 100 bucks (I think). She was so awful, and totally brought the show down that it really affected their collection. I'd never seen so many empty buckets at any collection before. So sad.
I didn't realize there was no collection on Sundays: is that true for every show??? I never realized.
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?
