GHD line?

Groundhog day is my current fav show, I love it a lot and it means a lot to me. going again tomorrow night & wanna ask andy to write something on my playbill but I'm drawing a blank because I'm nervous-excited. Any ideas? (i.e rob mcclure wrote "to thine own self be true" on my something rotten playbill...something short for his sake, but still meaningful!). All I can think of right now is there will be sun, which is my top choice, but I can't help feeling like I'm forgetting something. Many thanks! :)

I think that would be great, but you might also consider "Never give up hope".

"Open all the doors [you've] never looked behind before" or some variation of that line.

There's always "To the Groundhog!"

"Dont give in to sorrow theres always tomorrow."



"Yeehaw"



"Dont act like you dont notice I mean c'mon"

Thank you all for the suggestions! I wound up going with my original "there will be sun" after strongly considering champions adjust, bc it stuck with me more and it's the last line of the show. My friend and I had cheap seats that were somehow front row center, and it was truly the most wonderful experience. Shout out to the 4 or so people who came up to us after the show to "defend our honor" and just chat about its magic (due to a mixup where a theater employee told us "no pictures" during act 2 even though nobody had a phone out anywhere, especially not my friend and i, it was really reassuring to have such lovely talks with strangers!). Andy was super kind, took his time to talk to everyone, and took his time writing the line (I went with a poster in the end actually) and even had fun drawing a sun w a happy face (he was really excited about the smiley face). Anyway please see this show! Its amazing!!! (and from anywhere, I sat dead last row mezzanine the first time haha). Thanks again!

Andy, and the whole cast, are so kind and wonderful to their fans. One advantage to not being a hit is that the stage door isn't crowded so, even though the interaction is brief, it's relaxed with none of the insanity found at others.

Before Monday, I hadn't done any stage door-ing since the early 2000s. There were maybe 30 people at the GHD stage door? (I'm bad at estimating these kinds of things)

I didn't know where to stand, and at first unfortunately found myself in the third row back of people waiting. I was able to get a few autographs, but found it tough to do so without being too pushy (and people didn't really want to move). Eventually I found myself behind some moms and their daughters, who I had fun chatting with and were nice enough to make sure I got in when people came by.

Reading the DEH thread, this really does seem like a comparatively easy experience! But I was a little surprised because my memory of doing Rent and Aida stage door back in the early 2000s was calmer and without having to rely on someone else's kindness to get in. But maybe I'm misremembering?

Also, Caroline, thank you for sharing your Playbill! Love the smiley face.

"RE: The usher incident: Did they explain afterwards? If they didn't, let me say, as someone who's seen the show multiple times and always from first few rows, I have been about to lean forward to tell someone in the front row to turn off their phone, only to realize that it's just the lights hitting their playbill in their lap or some other reflective item or light colored clothing. Perhaps from the back of the house the same thing happened to the staff or to an actor on stage."

That probably is what happened - I did have my playbill on my lap. However, specifically that they thought we were taking pictures is odd since it was on my lap - my friend thinks she may have been fixing her glasses shortly before, so that might have looked like she was holding a phone? Not entirely sure - just hopeful that it was the usher that was confused and not a performer - don't want to think I may have distracted them, even if it was a mix-up.

Maybe it was just busier that night? Yesterday it was really tame, and as much as I adore Andy it was sad to see how quickly people left once they had their moment with him - 3 other cast members came out after him and there were just four of us left, save for a small group on the other end of the stagedoor that had come from backstage and were surrounding Andy. But it worked for us because we were able to chat with the remaining cast for several minutes / no rush at all, and say bye to Andy as he finally left after everyone else was gone.

"Suck my balls, I'm OUT!!"

Im sorry, I know it's totally inappropriate but I burst out laughing every single time I listen to the cast recording. And when he said it on stage? LOVE.
