“Manager” associated w/Broadway Cares at King and I Tour? #1

Posted: 12/10/17 at 11:03am

We just saw The King and I in St. Louis and
One of the Broadway Care people who come out after the show went out of her way for us—she was trying to help us get a signed poster for my niece when I believed they’d run out. She said she was the “manager” but I know there are several different managers involved with the show. She had short dark hair. I just wanted to tweet or post her a “thank you”....

Does anyone have any idea who that might be? Or where I could look to find out?

I would probably tweet to the theater @foxtheatrestl as I would guess it was a member of house staff.  If you can remember, maybe with a few more details of what she looked like...

Thanks I was going to do that but when I went to the box office to ask about it they said the theater had nothing to do with it—that the cast was doing Broadway cares...

And the end of the show LMK announces that they have ornaments and posters for donations for Bway Cares...

I had to wait in the lobby for an hour until the end of the performance when they came out bc the ppl working at the theater said they had nothing to do with it...

Do you think I could just drop a note by and it would get to them? They were just so incredibly helpful.

The cast and volunteers do the collections.  As far as a manager and whether they were connected to the house or the company, if you're convinced they were with the tour staff maybe then tweet to the tour @KingandIMusical?  With closing today, if it was tour staff they might well be on to the next town (Austin) in advance of the company.  A note would hopefully catch up to them eventually...

If they were able to get it signed by the cast easily, that leads me to believe they work for the tour and not the theatre itself.  Look into it being the Merchandise Manager, Company Manager (or assistant), or Stage Manager (or assistant) - those are the most likely, and they tour with the show.  It could have been the House Manager (or assistant) but those people work for the theatre.
