Photo Coverage: Spring Awakening Onstage Proposal

I LOVE how happy Hunter looks in the background.

And that is SO sweet! Best of luck!

Too cute! Wishing them both the best.

But like, proposing onstage is so lame compared to the possibilities of marrying onstage or giving birth onstage... soooo I'm not impressed.

Except that that is pretty cool. Would not want a proposal that way, personally, but it was thoughtful.

There was an on stage marriage proposal at a performance of THE WEDDING SINGER a few years ago.

At least it was sort of appropriate for that show.

i'd totally daydream about that.

"Would not want a proposal that way, personally, but it was thoughtful."

I wouldn't either. Many consider a public proposal to be bad luck.

I know of someone who wanted to do this at a different show a few months ago but they couldn't because neither of them were equity so management wouldn't allow them onstage.

I can see Spelling Bee happening really well (was it during the show, too?) but how did they do The Drowsy Chaperone?

Aw I love that. What a great start to a marriage hehe =)

Call me a sap, but I think this is INCREDIBLY romantic. Maybe not for the average person, but for someone who loves a show as much as she apparently does, I think the proposal was entirely appropriate... I want mine to be along the same lines... :P

I think it's a great idea, actually I already thought of it and was planning it for a show in October now these turds stole my thunder. Oh, well I'm gonna try it anyway because my girlfriend will love it and she doesn't know about this proposal.

And j/k about them being turds, I wish them best of luck.

lol, Yankee, my thoughts exactly. SA just does not seem like a particularly appropriate show for a proposal.

I understand that people will disagree with me, but MY OPINION is that public proposals are simply awful - a really hardcore piece of emotional blackmail and not very considerate to the hundreds of witnesses who neither know nor care who you are, but will unfairly hate the object of your proposal if s/he dares say no, so s/he has to say yes. Even if I were being publicly proposed to by someone I *did* want to spend the rest of my life with, I'd say no anyway, because it wouldn't feel like I was being given a legitimate choice. Not just because I'm a super-biotch. I want someone to ask me to marry them because they want me to choose them to be with forever. It's very much a two-way thing.

Anyway. I'm just explaining why I don't like the idea, so you realise I have valid reasons and am not just being cynical. I don't expect anyone to necessarily agree. ^_^
