1. Punctuation and grammar is your friend. So is coherency.
2. So you're right. Do you want a medal?
3. Knock off this holier-than-thou act. Everyone was just speculating, NO ONE was deliberately lying.
4. I am a Wicked fan so don't accuse me of being a hater. But quit it with your attitude.

Posted: 1/8/05 at 6:27pmIf she broke her collarbone, she's not going on tomorrow. That's gonna be a heck of a "return tickets" line.

QM, I don't think anything would help at this point. I think there'll be a lot of people having a sleepless night tonight. Whatever happened, I hope she's o.k. and recovers quickly. I was going to log off soon, but I just might have to stick around a bit. BTW, LOVED 12 Angry Men!!

Posted: 1/8/05 at 6:29pmMaybe the show was just moving slower than usual, and so everything happened like it was supposed - but all the actors were behind?

As some of you know, I'm kinda new here.... What is it with this Wicked4Life person? Is she always like this?
Um lets stop the speculation about Dee til we really know what happened. There'll be a statement released I'm sure.

I have the livejournal phone post from my friend at the theatre right now saying that the people at the box office announced she broke her collarbone, so I'm going to have to go with it being true.

Okay. To recap, Idina fainted during For Good, falling through the trap door during the melting scene and breaking her bruised ribs and breaking her collarbone. Is this about right?
I hope she's alright...and would hope some of this speculation could stop. It's never a good thing not to be able to finish a show regardless of the reason.

Bdwaygirl, good luck with trying to log off, I've been trying for the last 30 minutes (glad you loved the 12 Angry Men, by the way).
If Idina is indeed out tomorrow, I shall return my 'very expensive' ticket as well and will get a cheaper ticket instead. I still wanna see Joe Mac's last night

What is *he*, 12?
Jimbo, possibly (she'll be online later on tonight) - but then again it probably wouldn't be in her place to give us the inside scoop if Gershwin doesn't want to release a statement. (Not that I don't want the DL or anything.

Posted: 1/8/05 at 6:33pmRight - they 'announced' she "broke her collarbone" without being sent to the hospital yet and getting x-rays or a proper diagnosis.
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

haha why would fredi know anything about this?
(I guess this *he* must be one of the crazy Wicked fans you were telling me about)
#91re: Idina out for second act at today's matinee!
Posted: 1/8/05 at 6:35pmOMG!This is horrible!!But if anything I think we should all keep Idina in our thoughts and prayers and hope she is better soon for her sake and nothing else.

Posted: 1/8/05 at 6:36pmSkepp, I think you're on the right track but I believe it's a bruised/broken ribs OR collarbone - not both (I hope!). Also, we're not sure if it was during the melting scene - some people said during "For Good", although I don't see how a trap door comes into play at that very moment, unless she was walking across the stage and other trap door well open.

Posted: 1/8/05 at 6:38pmThat has to be aweful to not have a "last" show!!! I hope for her sake that she is able to get some closure with this show, that she has put so much of herself into, and perform tomorrow. I hope it's not as serious as we are all being told. She is in my prayers!!!

Posted: 1/8/05 at 6:38pmI thought Skepp was being facetious.

Posted: 1/8/05 at 6:39pmThey "announced" it well after she had been brought to the hospital. This was for the people waiting for the lotto for the night show, not for those who were there for the matinee.

Well *he* sure acts like a 12 year old brat with esteem issues, but that's beside the point. (What was the point, again?)
Refrain, was that directed at me? Either way, to answer your question, yes this is what we are talking about. But at least he didn't scream in her face and make her drop her coffee.
