And...I have another 10, ladies and gentlemen ! What a fabulous, wonderful night of theater I had tonight ! Everything you've heard is true, so I won't bore you with many details ! I think it's the BEST cast overall on Broadway right now ! The talent on that stage is phenomenal ! Bartlett Sher's direction is so deserving a Tony ! Kelli and Paulo were fantastic, Matt, well of course I am preoccupied, but he took my breath away with his angelic voice, his top-notch acting and of course THOSE looks ! Danny and Loretta - a joy ! TEN, a perfect well rounded 10 !!
The stage door was the highlight of my trip ! It as only me, a sweet girl and a couple. Matt came out and greeted us and our dialogue was like that :
ME: Congratulations, you were wonderful ! I don't know if you read the Broadway Boards on the net, but I am a huge fan from Greece since your Hairspray days.
MATT: Oh my God, I know about you ! You are my biggest fan, come here !
HE HUGS ME
Then I said i wanted a pic and an autograph and he said sure, just give me a moment to say hi to my friends. He went for a couple of minutes to a couple of girls who were a bit further and then he came back, posed for two pictures with me, signed my window card " To Panos, you are my favorite fan, all good things" and then we talked a bit more, he hugged me again and thanked me for sticking up for him when some "mean" people say bad things about him ! I missed Paulo Szot while talking with Matt, but really, do I mind ? Then Kelli came out, she was really sweet and also personalized my window card and then I flew home ! Yes, I was flying LOL It was a dream come true and I was so happy that he is so down to earth and wonderful offstage as he is on it ! Look out for my new avatar as soon as I get home LOL
Definitely a FANTASTIC night for me !

I'm glad it worked out beyond your wildest dreams, and that you are giving Cheyenne Jackson one more chance to knock Matthew Morrison down to # 2 - lol.

Your story brought a smile to my face first thing this morning. Thank you for sharing. How funny that he already knew about you.
Enjoy the rest of your shows. Have a safe flight home. So glad we finally got to meet last weekend.
