Company Closing Sunday - anyone else going? — Page 5

I've had trouble sleeping all week; each time I opened my eyes, I got scared that it was already Sunday. So waking up today, I just wanted to hide under my blanket! It's amazing, the way my body knows; I was nauseous the moment I woke up.

To me it feels like I'm going to a funeral for a close friend. This was the first show in a long time that made me feel everything that is great about Broadway.

Does anyone think stritch might be there?

Someone said it's been doing that (incorrectly) for a few days. It was technically sold out on Friday, but there were seats unused because of the cameras.

God, I think the worst part is waiting around... I figured it out that I'm doing absolutely nothing today (just in case) and... that was the worst idea ever.
Why would SuperStritch be there? It would be pretty cool, though...

I thought that Stritch might be there just to give support to the cast?

With the exception of a few debates, I've been relatively calm through all of this -- the review fiasco, the Tonys, the closing notice... but AHHHHHHHHHHHH.

I'm with Ariella. I saw the show twice last week and I instantly fell in love with it.

I hope everyone who goes tonight has an amazing evening! Please review, I would love to hear how it went.

Oh, when the reviews came out there was just this totally bizarre display of histrionic drama, because everyone was nervous.

And absolutely. I loved Sweeney so, so much, but I didn't connect with it right away. It took me a little bit of reflecting to love Company, but I instantly connected with it. I remember the way I just sat there after Being Alive, shaking. I never expected to be so moved or to be so in love with it, but here I am over a year later. It sounds very silly, but I have really never been so in love with anything in my life. It's very hard to explain those kinds of visceral, deep connections, but on a more explicable level, I obviously think it's a brilliant work of art -- one of the best things I have ever seen. It's been my greatest pleasure to support this show, and today's a really tough goodbye for me. But I do believe it's better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
