Hilarious Comments Overheard By Tourists and Audience Members — Page 95

Mamet is pronounced to rhyme with "cram it".

People who say "Mamay" probably shot at "Tarjay" and "J. C. Pennay"

Overheard at the rent tour tonight in Providence.
I was sitting in the front row and people kept coming up to examine the stage for some reason and these one girl actually said "do you think they do closed captioning for this show?"

The stagedoor fangirldom is just beyond rediculous. One girl asked anthony for a hug and he responded if he gave her one everyone would want one. she then responded with "your like the reason were friends, you and adam, tell adam that!" honestly people think of the crazy stuff you say to people. The same girl was utterly offended that Adam didnt come out as usual.

Another girl was harassing the doorman telling him she knew that they were all still in "that bus" which was very clearly a 16 wheeler truck. and that she determined to wait until they came out. She then said "I say we sing really loud until they come out" at this point me and my friends got the f#$@ out of there reaaaal quick. Dissapointed in fangirls.

One time at wicked (london) stage door a guy start singing Defying Gravity in german. I was like wtf

Back a couple of comments - you probably knew this, but Geoffrey Rush pronounced David Mamet as "David Mamay" because he was suggesting, kiddingly, that EXIT THE KING was not the only French existentialist play that was popular last season - there was also SPEED-THE-PLOW by that French author David "Mamay.'

(If that was the point of your comment, forgive me for over-stating the obvious!)

"Woman 1: Oh my god did you see that show Wicked? It was so horrible.

I couldn't believe she said that! HAHAHA."

I have no idea why you couldn't believe she said that. Please explain why that is hilarious. thanks!

"Like OMG how ridiculous..."

"Like you people don't get out much."


I was joking.

Jane, if you had read the whole post you would have realized that I was using that as an example of what NOT to post as a hilarious comment.

This is what the post says:

Clarification for some who need it: a hilarious comment DOES NOT equal something you disagree with.

For example:
Woman 1: Oh my god did you see that show Wicked? It was so horrible.

I couldn't believe she said that! HAHAHA.

Referencing how some people think it's hilarious that people think Spring Awakening is horrible and need to post it in this thread. But thanks.

my mom and stepdad saw the wicked tour in philadelphia in summer 2007 and my stepdad thought it was over after the first act. they left their front row, $120 a piece seats because hes stupid. FAIIIIIL

Ohh I can contribute something. Kind of.

I was talking to a friend's mum about how crazy Liza Minnelli seemed these days (see: Australian Idol performance), and she went on about how she is doing concerts and is still on Broadway today etc.. doing shows. I told her that the 'shows' WERE that concert and she didn't believe me.

Hmmm..I suppose this doesn't satisfy the 'hilarious' condition of the thread...or overhearing, hehe. But the thought of Liza performing/acting/'singing'/'dancing' in shows for the like X number of years makes me lightly chuckle 'in head'.

Well the comments can't always be good :P.

"your like the reason were friends, you and adam, tell adam that!"

I have no idea what you just said here. They were friends but no longer are because he wouldn't give her a hug?

I happen to be rather fond of Tarjay.

And I happen to be rather fond of JCPenney. In fact I get my pants from them almost exclusively.

This is not so much hilarious but a bit of buffoonery.

After exiting Young Frankenstein:

Twentysomething boy #1:... well I thought it was good.

Twentysomething boy #2: They took a little too much liberty with the endings.

Twentysomething boy #1: Yeah at least in The Producers not all that much changed.

Did these guys even watch the original movie of The Producers? Spamalot was a show that took liberties with the ending of its film counter-part. YF, not all that much.

Also heard from another audience member that 'the girl who played Inga looks like a real up and comer. I mean she sung upside down'. Did they even read the bios in the playbill?

It amazing what people will say or act when you are in the dark and never have to face each other.
