Because I don't want to be buried on page five of.... — Page 4

You know, some of you, not all of you, but some of you, talk about,analyze, and obsess more about theatre than the people that actually work in it. It's kind of sad.

Yes, people who care deeply about a subject are downright pathetic, aren't they? I mean, really. Who in this day and age can expect to look cool without maintaining an ironic distance from every topic brought up?

Hi, Al!

Al Dente, your comments to ILuv about posting in this thread are so preschool.

Act your age, not your shoe size.

"Caring about something and obsessing over it are two entirely different entities. I care about baseball, but I most certainly don't talk endlessly about it, hang out at the locker room door, and know what the players favorite foods are as well as their birthdates and their wives eye colors, as well as whether or not they have a sniffle or a cold. Nor do I routinely go to their Myspace page and proclaim them to be my friends. All that's just fanatacial and pretty creepy."

Obviously, you don't care that much about baseball. I'm just sayin'...

I was in minor league baseball for 4 years and traveled all over the country for 8 months out of every year, so I do care about baseball.
And again, caring and obsessing are two different things. I am a working actor, I care about the theatre and the craft, but when the curtain drops or the film wraps, I go back to the real world and dont prattle on endlessly about it.

Why yes, I was. Obsessed over Tina? NEVER! Haha

AND because I don't want to be buried,

When is Hanke leaving RENT?

And because there are too gosh darn many A Chorus Line SRO threads and I don't even know which ones I have asked this in - I will ask it here -

Does ACL have cancellation line and when do people start lining up?

Thanks.

And as for the subject on hand...I guess this beats talking about Donna Murphy.

When is Hanke leaving RENT?

He was quoted as saying "late November". There is no exact announced date yet.

What suprises me, Iluvtheatretrash is that, I said that "some" people on here were obsessed and creepy. I didn't mention any names. For some reason you feel a need to defend yourself with that melodramatic diatribe.
As far as it being your three square meals, you act as if that is exclusive to you. It's my career and livelihood, I've spent years studying it. But I still won't be seen worshipping strangers or hanging out at a stage door to get a photo with someone who I don't even know.
