shesamarshmallow,
I've seen that video, and it's adorable beyond belief. Only makes me love the cast more!
yellibean,
I was sitting dead center (105), all by my lonely self. One of the guest spellers (the boy) was sitting two seats down from me. The four seats next to me were totally empty.
This Saturday will be the my "closing". I'm going back home the next day. I sure will miss this show.

yelli,
I think I may have seen you. I was sitting to the left of the person on your left.
I went (again!) tonight, and Elsa Carmon was on for Betsy Wolfe (Rona Lisa Peretti). She did a decent job, although her Peretti is much different, much more straight-faced and more authoritative. Also, the height difference was sort of jarring. Betsy Wolfe is about a foot taller than most of the "kids", and Elsa Carmon is about Sara Inbar's (Logainne) height, who's the shortest.
The audience was really into it, although the numbers were sad. They closed off the Mezz. and moved everyone into the orchestra.
And FYI, according to some flyers that were up in the theatre, some of the cast will be performing at Club Cafe (that's in the South End) on Tuesday, December 19th, at 10:30pm. I can't go, but I hope some of you will go!
