"This thread makes me laugh. Know what else makes me laugh? The way Elena screamsings the 'qual' in 'star quality.'
Sistah knows it's her showstopper. She stands back, says "get ready for me!" and let's us have it. Watch out now!

But most of the audience is asking, "What's a 'qual'?

Tonight is going to be a special at Evita as today is 9 de Julio, Argentina's Independence Day! Elena's going to relish her "Qual-" and "Rio De La Plata/Florida/Corrientes/Nueve de Julio".
All she wants to know

Max tweeted yesterday, "...My upcoming dates as Che in @evitabroadway. Aug 6th (8pm) 7th (7pm) 8th (2pm) 9th (8pm) 10th (8pm) & 11th (8pm)"

He tweeted last night "This just in...I'm on for Che tonight at @evitabroadway C'mon NYC, get out of the rain, go see a b'way show (preferably mine). "
Anyone see him?

Just checking Ticketmaster - sales aren't too great even with Elena out of town. She's back on June 21st, for all those who may have tickets.
Do we know what her dates are in August? (She is filming something.)

She has got the worst PR department and the most uncommunicative fanatics. Well, I am probably the only one who likes to communicate and post pretty pictures of her but I don't know the dates. Sorry!
I'm not a fanatic-I was just curious.

^ I didn't say you were, no insult intended towards you. It's hard to find any information so I just post what I can when someone asks. I know there are fans out there but they never post anything helpful. I hope there's a way to find the dates that you're looking for.

No problem. I thought there was a Twitter message posted somewhere. I'll search for that.
Elena is doing the matinee only on Saturday 8/11 - she is gone from the night of 8/11 through 8/18.
Does anyone have any Max stage door pics they'd care to share? He's always very nice to his fans. from RC in Austin, Texas
Max is on for Che again this evening.
^I can't imagine what the lines at the box office must be like today, I feel badly for Max. Has anyone been by the Marquis box office today?
I saw the matinee yesterday and Ricky sounded fine. I was shocked when I found my friend who was freaking out because he got to see Max again. The line last night for returns/exchanges was out the door past 8:05, starting at 7:20. It was ridiculous.
As for the size of the audience at the matinee, the rear sides of the orchestra were completely empty. As was the last 4 rows of the center orchestra.
And the money kept rolling out (of the Marquis)...
What a shame! Max is so wonderful as Che I just bought tickets to see it for a 4th time as soon as Max posted which dates he would be on for Ricky in August. I know a lot of people are caught up in Ricky-mania but seriously.... go see a great actor & singer play Che.
Saw Max last night - July 18 - and he was terrific. Ricky's a better dancer but Max of course is the better singer.
