Dirty Old Men Who Wait Outside Stagedoors For Free Tickets To Shows

You are SCARY SCARY people... why don't you try BUYING theater tickets for once rather then harrassing everyone on the street in front of theaters asking for free tickets?

Sorry to vent... witnessed the same man who ALWAYS does this at shows doing it tonight and he sadly got in with his 60 yro friends and one of them fell asleep in the front row ugh..

I've seen him dozens of times over the years -- wearing the same jacket every time.

I know EXACTLY who you're talking about. That man got mean and nasty with me at PROOF.

Anyone ever see the old lady at all the stage doors? She never sees shows, just collects autographs. She can get nasty, also.

I have seen the old lady. A lot of the actors seem to recognize her.

He always bothers me. I once made the mistake of giving him my extra as my boyfriend at the time had to work late.

Yikes. It's like feeding the animals at the zoo.

OMG that old man like, stalked me at Dracula, finally convinced me into buying him a student ticket but only because I'm nice, and then fell asleep in the front row during the show. I was like what the crap?? Go away.

You actually bought him a ticket???

Does the BO usually give him free tix? Is yelling and harrassment really all it takes?

Maybe the old man's right? He's definitely smart! With all the crap on Broadway, I'd do the same thing. Scab tickets off people to see half-assed shows, then fall asleep in them! LOLOLOLOLOL. He wouldn't be doing this in Germany or anywhere else. He'd be too excited, too happy, and for once 'escapist' from his hard existence. This just proves that Broadway has a lot of crap at the moment!

At the final perf. of little shop, that old lady that you are talkin' about (not the man) went directly to Joey's limo, opened the door and asked for autograph! I was shocked!

That's so weird! People just give him their extra tickets??! That's weird! Does the box office too? I didn't see him at the Hair benefit though. That really pisses me off.

Are you talking about Elsie? (The old woman?) I think that's her name... a lot of my friends have told me about her behavior at the theatres... every show... always collecting autographs. Apparently most actors know who she is... some are nice to her, some run the other way.

I've yet to actually come in contact with this woman.

I'm not much of a stage-door-goer-toer, but that's annoying. And as for that guy--why would the box office give him tix? What does he do? I'm so curious about him.
