I know it seems obvious but I saw Billy Joel at Movin' Out. It was last year when the musicians just got back from their strike. All of a sudden you see news cameras all over the place and in walks billy joel, who then snuck out at intermission.

I saw Barbara Cook at Assassins last Friday night. Neil Patrick Harris was out and the understudy, Chris Peluso, was amazing. I also saw Hunter Foster at Millie earlier this year. He sat 2 rows behind me.

I think they do get special treatment in every way. I doubt they call telecharge. I think their people hook them up.

Broadwaylady, you need to pull that bug out of your ass and lighten up when someone makes a joke or you're gonna be a boring person. It's just a message board.

I was seated next to Annette O-Toole at Hairspray. I ran into her and Michael Mckean at Virhin Mega the next day and she TOTALLY remembered me from the show.

I sat next to Lauren Bacall at Avenue Q. Jesus H. The woman turned to me at intermission and said "Well, what do you make of it?"

I resisted the urge to ask if she was ever bit by a dead bee.

I've seen Mayor Rudy G. at DOTV, Cynthia Nixon at Gypsy, and Jerry Stiller at Wicked. Did not approach.
Probably don't really count but I also saw Tom Meehan and Don Black at Bombay Dreams and Jeff Marx at Q. Did approach. Nice guys. Very patient with nuts like me.

at Showboat, like, 10 years ago...I saw Ron Howard and his family. They were right in front of us.

I was 12...it was one of my first Broadway shows, so that made it extra exciting, haha.

Billy Joel and Kristen Johnson at "Hairspray."
Apparently, Kirsten Dunst and Jack Gyllenhaal were at the same performance of "Gypsy" that I was.

The day someone spells the name Gyllenhaal correct is the day I'm the President. This family has been really good to me.

tennis85...Stephanie March as in "Law and Order: SVU"? She was so good as ADA Cabot. Is she going to do a play now?

I don't know if this really counts, but I got a pic with Harriet Harris and Chris Sieber @ Millie.

Also, this was on the street. I took a random pic of the Marquis Theater. When I got it developed, I noticed in the pic a guy with glasses in a beige/tan overcoat and an SNL hat, talking on a cell phone. He kind of looked like Richard Gere.
