I did a search and nothing came up, so...

Why was he wearing tennis shoes for his SITPWG performance?

On an unrelated note, Rob Corrdry would make a GREAT George.

So...It is part of his costume? I didn't know Sketchers were around in that time period.

I think they were either Adidas or Saucony.

It's the 80's, they sure were around.

Considering the number is in act 2 when he is NOT in the 1800s, what is the problem people seem to have with the costume design?

[verynewyorkcurious]

That was his costume, no? Jeans and a jacket.

Apparently I need costume/plot enlightenment here. Anyone?

How's that for a period costume, betch?

Yes it's a world gone mad!

Act One was George Seurat in the late 1800s (I think). Act Two was George Seurat's great grandson George in the 1980s, and he sings with Dot, who is his great grandmother.

Yes, Mandy Patinkin said it when presenting the number - a visual artist, George, meets with the presence of his great grandmother (the lady with the hat and parasol).

His great grandma (Dot) comes to him in a flashback vision-like kind of thing.

Aha! That's why I missed it then...I was watching it with the sound on as low as possible because my parents were asleep.
