Normally not starstruck however I thought I would mention this because nothing like this ever happens to me.

Very enthustic audience today. Victoria Clark was awesome, Kelli O'Hara and Aaron Lazar were supurb also.

I am a very lucky man to have seen such talent today.

Actually, I saw Ron Rifkin at Sweeney Todd LAST night! He's getting around!
Joel Grey was also at Sweeney last night. My GOODNESS, he is a small man!

When I saw "The Music Man" revival several years ago, Nathan Lane and Victor Garber were sitting together across from me. Of course, I went up and made an awkward pest of myself by telling them how much I enjoyed their work, etc. etc. Nathan and I shook hands, but he definitely had that "leave me alone" look on his face, lol.

Kathy Najimy sat next to me during Caroline, or Change. She offered me mints at Intermission. (my mom tells me she was giving me a hint...I HOPE this was untrue). She was so sweet.

YankeeFan--

I don't think they were on a date (I mean, maybe they were, but I didn't think that Victor Garber was gay). They had just done "Wise Guys" (the "Bounce" workshop) together and I figured they were just two colleagues enjoying an evening of musical theater...okay, maybe his is gay, lol ("Not that there's anything wrong with that").

When I saw Boy From Oz, Lauren Bacall and Liz Smith were three rows in front of me (though they didn't come to the show together). I went up to Ms. Bacall at intermission, apologized profusely for intrtuding on her evening at the theatre, and told her how much I admired her work, and she took my hand and thanked me profusely, looking extremely touched by words I'm sure she's heard hundreds of times before. She's an amazing lady!
