LMAO. Oh, poor Jose Llana.

Randal Keith's all-purpose charity line is "Before we begin act 3..."

Les Miz, 1998, Craig Schulman doing the speech: "There are 1500 people in this theater..." (Gavroche runs out with the poster) "...1501."

Aida, 2003: "We'll also be auctioning off some of our cast members. Just kidding, Adam!"

The Boy From Oz, 2004, Michael Mulheren: (showing Hugh Jackman's t-shirt to the girl he danced with in Act 2): "Look Michelle, some of your claw marks are still on this..."

Hairspray, 2003, Harvey Firestein: "You can bid something, I know how much you paid for that scarf. Ever hear of Filene's Basement?!"

My Fair Lady, 1994ish?: Robert Sella (?) sings "I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face" behind the poster: "See? The Phantom of the Opera poster doesn't do that."

The Boy From Oz, 2004: Hugh Jackman: "If everyone contributed $1, we'd raise $1500. If everyone contributed $1500, we'd raise $1.5 million." (actually, it would be $2.25 million)

Blood Brothers, 1994(?): the guy playing Mickey, when Helen Reddy was playing Mrs. Johnstone: "You know, sometimes it's just you and me against the world..." He got smacked by Helen Reddy.

When my sister saw Wicked, they got the guy playing Boq to do the Lollipop dance from "The Wizard of Oz." Sorry I missed that!

Those are hilarious. Would it make me a horrible person to want to go to these shows just to hear the speeches? Maybe I can sneak in at the end when all those people start leaving during the curtain call.

I was there for this one --

Lady from the audience : How about breakfast with Hugh

Michael Mulheren ( auctioneer for THE BOY FROM OZ) : Sorry

Lady again : How about an hour with Hugh

Michael Mulheren : I'm not sure if he can last that long

Hugh Jackman ( obviously not paying attention) : Huh????

Stephanie doing the Q speech a couple of weeks back: "First of all no, I am not a slut. And yes, they are real." For some reason the yes, they are real completely cracked me up.
