Posted: 5/18/06 at 10:13pmThe ending of Grey Gardens killed me. The emotions were so high, I cant imagine anyone not being a bit of a mess.

Posted: 5/18/06 at 10:15pmSweeney Todd- Unable to breathe that is. But then my legs picked me up, as I needed to rush to the stage door. The Pillowman had a similar effect.

Um, L5Y left me visibly sobbing.
For me, that's saying a lot.

A couple...
Phantom, I saw Crawford and I couldn't control myself. I always feel so bad for the Phantom.
Aida, Heather's last night. I was bawling to say the least.
Last was, the Last Five Years. Oh man I love that show.

Posted: 5/18/06 at 10:25pmJust listening to Parade full through is an emotional ride that moves me a lot. The only moment where I was tearing in the theater was the significantly sad parts of act 2 of Little Women and other than that, no really upsetting moments.

I had tears streaming down my face for the entire second act of The Light In The Piazza. I'm not usually one to emote that much in public, but I couldn't control myself. I was a blubbering mess.

#22re: Shows that left you in a mess of tears, unable to breathe nor stand up,
Posted: 5/18/06 at 10:37pmI cried at Ragtime. I was emotionally shaken after The Pillowman, Awake and Sing!, Into the Woods, and Les Miz.

The day LA CAGE Closed.
TEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I also cried when Millie closed at the Marquis.
The Marquis has produced a lot of tears.
Millie was the worst.
(When Stephanie left Avenue Q, I cried.)

Posted: 5/18/06 at 10:55pmThe Light in the Piazza just struck me and couldn't stop, however, it made a nice coversation with Victoria about how she really cries every show.
