A couple nights ago at YF a I heard a couple behind me saying:
Women: Didn't we see Spamalot here?
Man:No, it was Les Miserables, I remember the helicopter.
Women: Yeah you're right.
I wanted to turn around and tell them that they had it totally wrong, but I was laughing too much.

I'm trying to think of a good helicopter in Les Mis joke but I can't.

Because 19th Century France had such an abundance of helicopters...

When I saw Spring Awakening, during the Hanschen/Ernst seduction scene in Act 2, a Southern lady behind me asked her husband "Are they brothers?"

This afternoon, while leaving the theatre after a performance of PYGMALION:

"Of course I can tape this - it's not a musical. You can't record musicals, but you can straight plays."

I hope he has a good attorney.

Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

"I hope he has a good attorney."
A REALLY good lawyer and lots of $$$ to pay for said REALLY good lawyer!

I was at a performance of Lez Miz earlier this year and the conversation behind me went like this.
Old Lady 1 "Is this a musical or a play?"
Old Lady 2 "I think its a play. Its about the French Revolution"
Old Lady 1 "So its a play about France in the 80's"
Old Lady 2 "Yeah but the tickets were cheap"

After the show started

Old Lady 2 "Well I guess I was wrong it is a musical"
Old Lady 1 "Is this really what France was like in the 80's"

"I'd rater be nine peoples favorite thing, than a hundred peoples ninth favorite thing"

"Mattbrain...really? haha Lea originated the role Kim"

Yeah, Allie cleared that up for me. For some inexplicable reason, I thought she was talking about Lea Michele when she really meant Lea Salonga. I have no idea why that happened. Maybe it's premature senility (and I'm only 18 -).

maninchair - that Cats quote has been around for at least five years. If you actually heard someone say that, than I actually saw them pull the gerbil out of Richard Gere's ass.

I did not overhear the Cats comment myself. I don't even remember who told it to me originally, but it still makes me laugh.

I DID hear this a couple of days ago online at TKTS from a brassy sassy loud Midwestern touristy-type woman:

"She was, like, a size one with boobs out to here. I don't even know how she could balance on those skates."

Hmmmm...I wonder what show SHE had seen...??

Something like this has happened to me numerous times when I have seen Spring Awakening, however my favorite is the one below...

At the beginning of Act Two when Melchior and Wendla starting having sex, again...

Son (30 years old, however): Oh god! They're doing it again!!
Mom: Well I'll tell you when its over, just cover your eyes for now.
Son: Okay...
*A minute later when they are still doing it*
Son: Are they done yet?
Mom: Nope, they're still going at it.

Overheard at "Is He Dead?" on Saturday afternoon, 12/1/07:

"This play is starring that guy from 'Dirty Rotten Scoundrels,' Norman Leo Buntz. Remember John Lithgow there? It's not him, it's the other one."

At the Broadway's Back concert, this woman was sitting behind me watching Joanne Worley wander around the audience and pose for pictures.

Woman: "She looks JUST like Joanne Worley! I wonder if anyone's ever told her that."

At a chorale concert, the mother of a girl in the concert complained about the German titles of the pieces, then announced this gem:

Mother: I could never go to opera because I can't understand it and anything I can't understand isn't fun.
