Posted: 8/8/06 at 12:19pmWell, I'm pretty sure Mr. Sondheim will be there.

I will absolutely trip on the nearest inanimate object.
Last time I saw the show, I was so in awe afterwards that I tripped on and fell into a chair.

Posted: 8/8/06 at 12:57pmEm, I almost fell into a chair on Sunday. I had to grab the back of the seat to not do so. I did this wierd stumble...but I didn't trip on anything. XD

Wait, I don't remember you tripping Emcee...I usually remember embarassing moments like that...
So, think I can approach Sondheim finally and ask him all about Bernstein?

Posted: 8/8/06 at 7:19pmStephen Sondheim went to see the London version last year! If he hasen't been spotted at this show yet I reckon he will be there sometime soon!

Posted: 8/8/06 at 8:27pmI was concentrating on the orchestral performances today on the way home and it just reminded me of how special this show is. I'm bummed I will never see it again.

Posted: 8/8/06 at 8:30pmI'm glad I got to see it three times (2x with Patti, 1x with Judy). It was an incredible show. I hope Company is excellent as well.

He has seen this production at least once and I'm guessing more than that. He was at the performance prior to the Jan 31st CD signing.

MenzelManiac, I don't know about celebrities, since it is a holiday weekend, but I would think/hope that since this is an evening show, there will be some Broadway people there since it's likely they will be out of their matinees and done for the day.
So hopefully there will be a lot of the Broadway community out there to support the show, along with us!

Posted: 8/22/06 at 4:44pmSondheim was at the first preview as I sat only a dew seats away from him. He will undoublty be at the last performance as well. I'm pretty sure he goes to the closing performances of all of his shows, at least the last Gypsy revival.
Happy...Everything!

Posted: 8/22/06 at 6:17pmI changed my weekend plans and am flying back a day early just to be there--I'll probably be running to the show straight from the airport with suitcase in hand! =)

Posted: 8/22/06 at 6:41pmteebz, just to let you know. Sweeney's rush only applies on weekdays, and closing is a Sunday. I'm also guessing that this will be one of the few Sweeney showings to sell out, so there might be standing room, but I doubt there will be any good rush seats. :/

Posted: 9/1/06 at 5:53pmIs there any sort of meet up before the show Sunday? Patronus? Katecab?
#120re: Sweeney Todd - Final Show - Who is going??
Posted: 9/1/06 at 6:03pmAlso, is everyone going to meet at intermission somewhere in the theatre?

We had something come up at the last minute and weren't able to make the trip.
I am sure there will be some sort of get together though.
