re: COMPANY - Closing Performance Stories

yeah the stage door was kind of nutty...the only time i've ever seen barricades (of course I'm sure there were other shows) was when I saw Hugh Jackman in "The Boy from Oz." The women went NUTS! and then five minutes after they left it almost completely cleared out...crazy!

I did hear one guy that kept pestering Fred Rose talking about getting on broadway...that was pretty funny...

I walked by the theatre last night (and to my suprise, I wasn't the only one who was there - the woman I sat next to at closing was there to see it dark, too!) and was totally bummed to see the dreaded "Company played it's last performance on July 1, 2007" notes on the door, even though I obviously knew they would be there. re: COMPANY - Closing Performance Stories

To see the theatre dark and empty was very sad, especially because I walked around the theatre district for a while waiting for friends to get out of "A Chorus Line" and realized there is absolutely nothing else I'm the least bit interested in right now, especially with Grey Gardens closing at the end of the month.

Eh, I'm just a big ol' bitter broadway b*tch right now. re: COMPANY - Closing Performance Stories

Plenty of shows have crowds that are way worse and way less manageable. The problem on Sunday was that they should have used barricades. Company didn't need them for most of the run, and I don't think they ever used them, but they would have helped a lot on Sunday.

Whoa - sounds like there was quite a crowd at the stage door! I had no idea there was going to be such a frenzy.


Some guy rested his program ON MY FACE so he could get it signed. I grabbed it and very nicely moved it away. For all the insanity, stagedoor was fun, though.

Bumping because I actually thought of something to ask.

Did anyone notice a tall guy with bleach blonde hair pushing his way to the stagedoor? He looked really familiar, but I don't know who it was.
