Just got home from Xanadu, everyone freaked when Cheyenne came out. I read he wasn't going on until Friday. He rocked!
Cheyenne back in Xanadu early

I'd heard last night he was going on tonight. Was this the first time you saw the show? I'm curious to hear from others that saw it tonight and had seen it already.
I hung out with Cheyenne Jackson in his dressing room waayyyyyy before he tickled D2. "unleash the girly"

I have to say Jackson was pretty darn good! He played Sonny pretty relaxed and a 'chill' sort of guy. His timing was really good and he used even his speaking voice really well. His deep, throaty voice on some of the lines was just priceless! I don't really know how to compare him to James or Curtis, he was different enough, but kept to Sonny. He really was awesome.
At one point he forgot his line and said "I need the muse of forgotten lines!" ALl at once the cast said "Cult!" And he said, "Only one, one person!" He continued on once he found his line and was great. He seemed more and more comfortable as the show went on.
Also, the wheels on his skates are tiny, I'm guessing because he is such a big guy. Oh man, he was good. =]

That is the best cover I've heard in a long time, almost as priceless as when I saw a production of Miss Saigon in which Kim had to cover up for the fact that Tam was laughing at the fact Thuy was threatening her.

MIGHT BE A SPOILER BELOW!
Throuhout the show the muses talk in unison and just the way they all said "Cult!" at the same time was hysterical, it really fit in.

Stage door wasn't crowded, I didn't stick around for Cheyenne, but there weren't many people there.

The Orchestra was filled as far as I could tell.
Cheyenne didn't really go on early. I'm pretty sure this was considered a 'put in' where they stick him in for a rehearsal type deal with the whole cast and everything.

I'm thinking of seeing this show next week... Cheyenne will be in next weekend, correct?
Also, can anyone tell me what the onstage seating is like, and if it would be worth it to see the show for the first time from those seats?
