GMF's SOUTH PACIFIC review and my meeting with MATT !!!

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 !

And from my excitement, I forgot to add, that before the show, I had dinner with my beloved princess emcee and the wonderful LADY misspennywise ! When the evening starts with the company of two so fantastic ladies, how can it not end majestically with my favorite boy ?

Being someone's "favorite fan" is a lot of fun, isn't it?

I'm so glad you enjoyed the show! And meeting Matt! You had a great experience and I hope you have many more before you leave NY! Have fun at your next two shows!!

You just got me so excited. I am seeing this Tuesday night and I was feeling rather lukewarm about it, but not anymore!

My theater fabulous week is just about to begin!

As always: thanks for taking the time to report in!

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.
