Last week at The Water's Edge (overheard by two ladies behind me chatting before the show started):

Woman 1: Have you seen Sweeney Todd (she asked this about almost every show out there to her friend...W1 had seen none and W2 saw them ALL)?

Woman 2: Yes.

W1: What's it about?

W2: Well....

W1: Is it a love story?

W2: No......yes, yes it was.

W1: Oh, that's nice.

W2: Yes, about meat pies.

I guess he can't read.

"Monty Python's..."

OK-so this just happened recently.

My friend is mixes up words all the time and says weird things.

But the best was when we were trying to win The Drowsy Chaperone lottery and on our way there she was on the phone with her roomate-this is how the convo went.

Friend: "Well-im on my way to go see a show now-no..I think it's called The Disgruntled Neighbor-oh okay-bye."

I have never laughed so hard before in my life.

I've told this story before, so forgive me if you've heard it before:

Many years ago I was standing on line at TKTS and there was a Texan who was blabbering about his experiences in NYC to anyone who's listen. He told me that "New York is a great city but it has too many HOMO-sexuals." I grew livid but kept my mouth shut.

Moments later he was asking for advice about what show to see. He specified a show that had "good family values". I finally opened my mouth and told him the only show he should see is LA CAGE AUX FOLLES. I assured him it's all about what it really means to be a family. (Anyone who has seen the show will agree with me.) He had trouble pronouncing the title, so when he got to the window, I lingered to help him purchase 4 tickets to LA CAGE.

Oh, how I wished I was in the theater that night!!!!!!

A couple of times when I saw PASSION there were some very interesting remarks made by audiences during the opening scene featuring a very naked Marin Mazzie.

My favorite was from a not very whispered elderly couple:

SHE: "I can see her NIPPLES!"
HE: "Oy, can you see her cooter?"

That one's better than "the green girl" and taking a five-year-old to see Avenue Q.

The fact that an elderly man said "cooter" makes me lol on the inside.

Overheard two people talking

1: Can you reccomend a show that's family friendly?
2: Well Avenue Q's got puppets...
1: Puppets are family friendly....

the posts here make me laugh so hard, and then weep in sorrow.

I was standing in line at Borders today and overheard these two girls in front of me talking about Broadway because the Wicked Cast Recording was playing in the store...

Girl 1: I just went to NYC with my dad. We saw a bunch of Broadway plays. Have you seen any?
Girl 2: Yeah, Wicked is the most amazing one EVER! It was so good.
Girl 1: What else have you seen?
Girl 2: Well, I saw the Rent movie... BUT WICKED WAS SO MUCH BETTER.

I just stood there and rolled my eyes.

I guess he can't read.

"Monty Python's..."

I guess not---they were in the premiere seats, too! His kids liked it, though. They laughed in the right places.

Moral of the story: I need to be in the TKTS line with Dollypop.

It's now at the Marquis Thetre/Hotel!
