Hank Azaria at CURTAINS tonite in L.A.#0

Hank Azaria arrived late to Saturday nights performance of CURTAINS at the Ahmanson Theatre in Los Angeles. He tried to be considerate and knelt down in the aisle at the extreme left of the theatre. An usher then made him take his seat, which of course was in the middle of a row in the middle of the orchestra. He had to walk over like 11 people.

All in all it was a good show. With tightening of the dialogue scenes and a song or two cut and replaced would do the show good, but as it stands this show should do Dirty Rotten Scoundrels business in NY.

you mean being a great comedy (but not many people knowing it) and only recouping 80%?

<--- the set of A Midsummer Night's Dream that I was assistant stage manager for during the 2007 season at the STNJ outdoor stage.

-Dre- You must remember all the same that at the crux of every game is knowing when it's time to leave the table... And it's important to be artful in your exit. No turning back, you must accept the con is done... It was a ball, it was a blast. And it's a shame it couldn't last. But every chapter has to end, you must agree.

There's a special kind of people known as show people. We live in a world full of dreams. Sometimes we're not too certain what's false and what's real. But we're seldom in doubt about what we feel.

Is it coming to Broadway? I have a real interest in seeing it.

Oh, man, I love this show so much. This should definitely make up for Rob Ashford's Tony snub for The Wedding Singer. He's clearly becoming one of my favorite choreographers, and "Kansasland" has to be one of the best, BEST dance numbers I've ever seen in live theatre. That Megan Sikora is a PHENOMENAL DANCER.

I have to agree. The dancing was absolutely breathtaking and just WOW. The show was just great. I loved it SO much.

I'm glad it's been doing pretty well. The day that I went [random Tuesday night] the theatre looked almost 100%. Fantastic.

No, I mean being a so so comedy, running less than 2 years and recouping 80%!
