Supposedly tonight was Bob's last performance. I did the lotto yesterday so I could get to see him one last time. Well, I won, and he and Beth were both out. Jay Douglas was FANTASTIC as Man in Chair though, while Stacia Fernandez was a TOTAL disappointment as The Drowsy Chaperone. Georgia Engel got injured or sick or had some sort of emergency mid-way through the show because when Mrs. Tottendale comes out for TOLEDO SURPRISE, Linda Gabler came out in full Mrs. Tottendale gear and played her for the rest of the show. But even with the absenses, the show was magical as ever. Sutton was STUNNING and Danny Burstein should have a Tony Award on his shelf for that performance. I had tears streaming down my face at the end of the show.
"Winning a Tony this year is like winning Best Attendance in third grade: no one will care but the winner and their mom."

"I have also met him in person, and I find him to be quite funny actually. Arrogant and often misinformed, but still funny."
