Aww, wish I got there a bit earlier to have seen a lot of Bway people getting CDs, I just saw Bruce on the street. I got there around...11:40, 11:45...got the CD right away(I also didn't know you could get more than one, sorry everyone), and exited the lobby at about 12:56, at least I wasn't in a rush. When I was like 5 people away from the table, John(who I was okay with because I have his autograph at the stage door) got up but Joanna did too! I was really mad, I was especially excited to talk with her, since she never goes to the stage door. Oh well. No pics, but a couple of notes. First off, Greg Jbara is an absolute doll!(Em, hope it's okay if I use your description, it's perfect). I noticed as soon as I entered the lobby he was talking to everyone, whether they said anyting or were shy. He would comment to people on their shirts, ask them about colleges, I kept trying to think of something to say, but I couldn't think...so I got there and he smiled at me and said hi and asked me how I was and I was like good, how are you(stupid, really couldn't think of much to say), and he was like good and asked me how long I had been in line, I said around 11:40ish and he was like wow really? Well thanks a lot for waiting, you must really like us, ha. Found another way to tell Norbie he has to win the tony(figured he wouldn't remember me from another time, he called me sweetie again). Then Sherie was talking to someone so David Yazbeck took my CD and signed it then Sherie signed it then David signed it again, I laughed. Sherie told me I was lucky, now it's more valuable with two of his autographs. Everyone was really nice, fun times.
Too bad I didn't know what more of you looked like, I was sure there must have been a lot of you right around me but I didn't know, oh well, I said hi to TGIF though, she was probably much smarter than me and got there earlier.
"If there was a Mount Rushmore for Broadway scores, "West Side Story" would be front and center. It snaps, it crackles it pops! It surges with a roar, its energy and sheer life undiminished by the years" - NYPost reviewer Elisabeth Vincentelli
