Seeing SONDHEIM in person.

So I'm going to the first ACW performance; it seems plausible he might be there, somewhere.

Does he often sit in the audience?

Have any of you ever tried to make a brief comment towards him e.g. At Intermission? (Though I can't imagine he'd be loitering around with Arthur at the Bar).

Does he accept 'assistant' applications? (Just kidding).

Yes, he sits in the audience. People have gone up to him before. He usually refuses to sign any autographs.

I almost went up to him at the first preview of Night Music, but he was talking to people.

Does his halo get in the way if you are sitting behind him?

He usually sits in the back on the side so he can sneak in and out if needed. I'm horrible with the initial thing so I have NO IDEA what ACW is, but if it's one of his shows and he's there to work I wouldn't bug him.

At personal appearances and stuff he's been absolutely lovely.

Ah of course. Thank you. Now I understand his need to shorten- that title is unbearably lengthy to type.

I've seated him a few times as an usher/house manager and he was very nice but then again I wasn't able to really strike up a conversation with him.
