Does "Spider-Man" Still Stop Mid-Show Often? — Page 2

Wait a second. You've seen PIPPIN 101 times already? And there is a girl who saw SPIDEY over 200 times just for Matthew James Thomas?

I'm sorry but having been on both sides of this, I have to say it is often an emotional or other kind of trauma that drives these repeat viewers. One show in particular I saw a truly embarrassing number of times because I was going through something at the time and used the show as an escape mechanism. It's not something I'm proud of but it did happen. That's why when I see these kids seeing the same show 50+ times, I have to say I'm highly dubious that it's purely a fan thing.

I was a huge, huge fan of The Mystery of Edwin Drood (obviously), it was one of my favorite theatrical productions I've seen in years. But my total count of seeing it is in the single digits because I had a job and friends and other things going on so when I did see it, it was out of desire to appreciate the production and not to fill a void.

ON TOPIC: Spiderman does still have serious technical issues. Both friends I know who saw it recently had some kind of stop or malfunction, though none as serious as the OP.

Yes, when I go to the movies it is about $37 Imax, Imax 3D, plus snacks Usually a pizza large soda popcorn, Liza's Headband. But again my time my money so you do not need to worry about it. Believe me I make more than enough at my job to afford to see my new favorite 101 times and still have time for a job, a boyfriend, and a life. and see other shows. Edit to add snacks.

yup. I am a chef. I don't eat a lot durring the week, because I taste a ton of food all the time and it tricks you into thinking you are full. On my days off I eat almost constantly when I am not at theater or shopping or doing laundry or out with friends, but usually if out with friends we are eating anyway.

That does not surprise me LIZA, I work 4 to 5 days a week. HIT shows on my days off and Imax either late night when the movies open or before I go to work. That is the beautiful thing about being a chef. I work nights for the most part. I have tons of time to do lots of things. I am not tied to 9 to 5 time tables. Saw Pippin yesterday went to a lecture in neon last night. Seeing Sontag Reborn tonight. Also have a great boyfriend that does the laundry and cooking. Sold his loft apartment a few years ago and retired, so life is pretty good. Like I said no need to worry, I have my life pretty well handled and well rounded.


EDIT: the BETTER question is WHEN DO I SLEEP? Answer on the Rush Line waiting for PIPPIN tickets.

and at this time I have only seen it 22 times. 79 more to go.

Just curious. My wife was friends with Robert Cuccioli in HS and wondering how he is doing as the Green Goblin.

When I saw Robert last summer, he looked like he was having a lot of fun, yankeefan7.
