Wow, the reports of people rushing the stage before being invited up for the dance party sound obnoxious. I mean--hello, you're invading the *actors' space.* I suppose it's a credit to the cast that people are so touched that they want to be up close with them, if they'd seen the show before and know that that even happens; I had forgotten they do that at the end of the show and in the two times I saw it in Chicago, didn't go up there. I mean, I'm a grown adult. Then again...if the opportunity availed itself next time I see it, who's to say no?
But in any case, as that adult, and an entertainer and sometime-actor, I'd never get up *before the show is over* just to get close. Were they mostly...kids? Yeesh.
Josh Lamon said on his FB page last night, "must be up bright and early tomorrow," so I assume he meant they're doing a matinee today. Wonder if the same thing happened, if they had any security issues, or if they'll cut out the dance party altogether, for a few weeks while they settle in on B'way.
"There is no use trying," said Alice; "one can't believe impossible things." "I dare say you haven't had the practice," said the Queen. "When I was your age, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast." --Alice in Wonderland
