Hello!
I just wanted to say hello to everybody on here. I am a frequent theatergoer and fan and my grandson recommended I join a fan club for musical theatre. He did some research and found this board for me and helped me set up an account, and I figured I would introduce myself. I go see shows all the time in New York, but I've been disappointed in shows for the past decade or so, but there is always good theatre to go see in New York somewhere, you just have to find it. The first show I ever saw on Broadway was She Loves Me, which I don't remember too much about other than being quite cheerful. The best thing I ever saw in all my life was Ethel Merman in Hello, Dolly!, and I have never seen anything quite as good as that. I hope to have some fun here on this forum!

Posted: 8/24/14 at 6:52pmHello...."Hello Ethel": I'm sure you'll do fine in here. This board can get a bit vicious at times. But, since you probably have a great deal of experience working with children, you'll do o.k. in this board. Most people in here are decent and very knowledgeable about all things theatre.
"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

Posted: 8/24/14 at 9:49pmWell thank you all for the warm welcome, and also to "Pal Joey" for being insufferably rude, or possibly sarcastic. Thank you in particular to "Sally Durant Plummer" for the link to that other post, and if "best 12 bars" is still on the site, thank you to him or her for that post, which was very nice to read.

Your grandson played a nasty trick on you, kind of like pushing you down a flight of stairs.
Did your grandson neglect to tell you that starting a thread that basically says "Hello, I'm New Here! Don't Be Mean to Me" is pretty much the same thing as saying, "Hello, I'm an Attention Whore!"?
What your grandson neglected to tell you was that new posters just make screen names and start posting. The only people who make threads called "Hello! Look At Me! Look At Me! LOOK AT ME!" are the same old trolls who have been haunting the Internet since Al Gore got his first hard on.
Take my advice: If you're a real granny, delete this profile, start another and REFRAIN from starting with a thread like this.
And if your an old troll, what an asShole you are to do this again.
