I didn't see the night he sneezed but I did see it on both Opening Night and Closing Night and I thought it was such a fun show. Nothing to it other than beautiful Sondheim sung by brilliant performers, esp Barrowman and Henshall.
As for Carol, I saw her doing a Q&A/Memory Lane kind of thing here on Long Island at the Tilles Center about...5 or6 yrs ago. She showed clips from her show and talked about it and took some questions. I went because she's my friend's idol and my friend asked me to go with her, we were 3rd row. When Carol started taking questions I kept telling my friend to ask one because I knew she'd see her raise her hand. My friend chickened out so I said I was going to ask something just so she'd talk to us. I raised my hand and she called on me before I could come up with a decent question so all I could come up with was "my friend loves you, can we shake your hand?" And she not only came down to shake my hand but she brought me back up on stage with her! I didnt have a mic so she told her to speak into the mic on her shirt so it was so weird. She had me introduce myself and tell why I was there so I was honest and said bc my friend loved her and she tried to get my friend to come up on stage but my friend was just staring, totally shocked. So Carol gave me a huge hug and made me bow before letting me sit back down.
It was a lot to take in being only 13/14 at the time. I'm just glad I understood the magnitude of who she is before I went.
And hang on, when did you win the discus?
