"Making all of my friends see BKLYN at LEAST twice.."
That's not crazy, that's just cruel.

Posted: 3/18/05 at 11:18pmI don't know the craziest thing I WOULD do, because hypothetical is so different from what you REALLY would do, but the craziest thing I did was pay a LOT of money that I really shouldn't have been spending at the time to see it close. It was worth every cent and then some.

Posted: 3/18/05 at 11:21pmI guess the money thing would do it... but I don't really have any. I don't know... technically I could say absolutely anything, but I don't know. But it would really depend, if it was just for a show I could pay money to see... then probably not that much. But for a show that I love that isn't on Broadway anymore, who knows? Not me

The craziest thing I have ever done happened during AIDA's last week running. I was called off work at 4:15, talked my mother into calling the palace theatre by 4:45 and had ticket to that night's show by 5:00. I was in NYC by 7:00 and picked up my tickets with half an hour to go before the curtain rose. This is crazy because I never do spur of the moment things.
The craziest thing I would do- I'm open to almost anything.

With a stone clutched in his hand
He was only a boy
But he knew someone must take a stand
There will always be a valley
Always mountains one must scale
There will always be perilous waters
Which someone must sail

I was in NY over the winter for about 11 days and ended up seeing 9 shows, even saw 2 of those 9 in one day. I braved the cold in TKTS lines, in cancellation lines, in lottery lines...I can't tell you how many nights I walked from 42nd to 57th back and forth, checking out the TKTS board along the way trying to find a show to see. I've ushered just to see shows...hmmm, what else... I guess that's about it. I thought it was normal. My friends thought it was pretty crazy.

Posted: 3/19/05 at 1:26amI have a bad habit with rent. if i try the lottery and lose (which suprisingly doesnt happen TOO often), I go and buy mezzanine seats...I really need to save my money next time.

See "Proof" 38 times over the course of it's two-and-a-half year Broadway run.
See "Amour" ten times over the course of it's all too short month-and-a-half run.
