as for me, i have 2 other friends who said they would take the tickets. although i have a feeling i'm not going to be getting much better seats by rushing unless i get there at some truly obscene hour of the morning. i'm probably better off sticking to what i've got.
ok so a friend was going to go on sunday but she has a family emergency (luckily she has already seen it) and won't make it back in time to see it so I'm taking her ticket and now I have an extra ticket..center orchestra row m..if anyone wants it PM me Updated On: 6/28/07 at 05:27 PM
12 and 1 tomorrow? Ugh. I shouldn't complain, but I really don't want to sit around for five freaking hours. I mean, it's the very end so I'll do what I have to do, but argh.
I wish I could be there. I loved Company, and there's nothing like a final performance, bittersweet and all. I remember the finale for Thoroughly Modern Millie, met a lot of fellow fans at the stage door, as well as most of the creative team, which is quite rare. This Sunday I'll be on LBI to see the final performance of TMM at The Surflight (Ashleigh Davidson is a terrific Millie!). Be with you in spirit!
They had been toying with that option for a few weeks. But I guess today they finally just told people flat out that there is definitely no rush. But if you want to go, the tickets you will get are probably rush price anyway, since they are rear mezz. So its basically the same thing
The morning star always gets wonderful bright the minute before it has to go --doesn't it?
Actually, someone asked the day the posting notice was closed and the box office said there would be no rush for the final show then. Their answer has been consistent all along, it's the "fans" that have been holding out delusional hope for a few weeks.
Like a firework unexploded
Wanting life but never
knowing how
Has anyone sat in the rear mezzanine for the show yet? Damn it, I was counting on rushing it like I did for all the other ones but maybe I'll see if tkts has anything before I check the box office at 12.
Walked by the theater this afternoon to pick up my tickets for tomorrow and lingered long enough at the box office window to hear a beautiful final few bars of "Someone is Waiting." No problem with the last high note this afternoon!
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to sound like no one has ever sat there before, I just wanted to know what the view was like from there cause I haven't sat there yet.
Well, I guess since rush is off, I will have to see what tickets are left at tkts or the box office....hopefully there will be something.
I'm so in denial that my "list of things that will go wrong on Sunday" list now has - "You will be so deep in denial, you will actually not show up for the performance" as #1.
SondheimGeek: Is it slightly pathetic that you guys get to be Jedi bitches, and I'm Bitchy the Hutt?
LizzieCurry: No, you're more memorable
I'm excited because closing shows are incredible. There's all of this great energy and love and appreciation. Those two and a half hours will be so full of joy, I know it. It's the downfall after, when it finally dawns on you that it's over that I'm not looking forward to.
I feel like I got off that plane in Cincinnati so much less than a year plus ago. It's funny, my stomach feels the same way today that it did then. We end right where it was that we began, I suppose.
