Hilarious Comments Overheard By Tourists and Audience Members — Page 47

I was in a show, and I was supposed to kiss a 45 year old man (I was 1, and an older woman in the front row gasped and then said loudly that "that man is much too old for her, someone ought to tell her mother." it was a little awkward for everybody.

alright if any of you guys were at the November 11th 2pm performance of The Producers you wouldve heard this:

after Ulla sings When youve got it flaunt it and asks Max and Leo "okey dokey well you like it?" some guy in the audience yelled "OH YOU KNOW I LIKED IT"..the audience started laughing and then John Treacy Egan (Max) pointed to the guy and said "This guy pays 100 bucks for a ticket and he thinks he's funnier than Mel Brooks"

My favorite of this holiday weekend while working at Lion King was a woman and her child. They were walking around the Minskoff and the mother said "Wow! They have really done alot to this theater since we saw Lion King, 2 years ago, it looks really different". I laughed for a good amount of time then I pointed out to her that Lion King had just moved to this theater and that she must have seen Lion King at the New Amsterdam.

I agree that lots of this is crap.

You agree with it so much you say it TWICE.

My school put on a production of Miss Saigon

[At the end of the show:]
Man: So, the girls in the beginning, what were they supposed to be?
Woman: I think Geisha's getting dressed...
Man: Oh, ok, I was wondering why they had nothing on...

I find that VERY hard to believe that a school would put on a performance where there was nudity.



There wasn't nudity! Ew, I atend a Catholic school - I think he meant that they were wearing, like, nothing... All they had on were tank tops, mini skirts and fish nets. They weren't nude... ew?

My cousin went to NYC on a field trip, and the school was taking the kids to see BatB, my cousin tell me what shes seeing BatB, this was the begining of the year 2006.

Cousin: Hey im going to see BatB
Me: Oh yeah? You will like it i saw it twice.
Cousin: Yes i think im lucky, being that its playing the SAME day we will be there.
(THE BEST PART HAS YET TO COME)
MEtrying not to laugh) Oh... Well most shows play about 8 performances a week.
Cousin: REALLY? Arent there like 20 plus shows on broadway?
Me: Yes?
Cousin: That must be dificult having 20 shows trying to share the same theatre.

I walked away

I still find it hard to belive that a Catholic School would allow that.

In fact I think your whole story is bogus

I have to threadjack, because neddy, Catholic schools certainly would allow that. In our production of Joseph, the girls wore the equivalent of bras and booty shorts. It happens.

"I still find it hard to belive that a Catholic School would allow that.

Neddy: Actually, they do allow it. My story is not bogus and you can believe it or not, that's your decision, not mine. And someone above mentioned geishas... Like I said, they thought that it took place in China. So they were just apparently putting (what wasn't there) two and two together. And getting the wrong answer.

For the link, it's my school's webpage. Go ahead, look. IT has the mention of the tickets on sale, and if you go to the drama section it has all the cast list.

But also, thank you, JustAGirl2!

But I'm just gonna let this get on track and again... This isn't Broadway-related, but it is Musical Movie related. My friend, who happens to be a dumb blonde said:

Friend: Why do they call [in the Wizard of Oz] the Emerald City the Emerald City if it's green?

OK here is one I overheard this weekend while looking at the tree at Rockefeller, A couple passed by and.....
Woman: Isn't the tree pretty this year. I think it came from Connecticut.
Man: Wow I thought it grew there!
