re: Things that annoy you...

People who keep moving in front of me when I try to watch a show.

Someone breathing very loudly next to me.

Someone sleeping in the theatre.

"YOU LIKE BROADWAY?!?!? YOU'RE GAY!!!!!"

Wicked

Someone wanting to go see Lestat because the poster is cool.

This list goes on and on.

I also get the "I love lyke Wicked, I listen to Popular all the time!" "What other songs do you listen to?" "There are others. Oh, well, idk I got it off limewire!"

Relating everyting to Wicked...


"Who's that singing on your CD player?"
"Audra McDonald, she was the original Sarah in Ragtime on Broadway."
"Oh, I saw Wicked!"


"I see you're wearing a Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat t-shirt. Have you seen Wicked?"


Also, cast recording/soundtrack. I get really uppity about that one. Sorry, people I know.

Whenever people say soundtrack in the place of Cast Recording. That's the only thing that irks me.

"I saw Sweeney Todd, but I didn't really understand it. He kills people and LuPone bakes them into meat pies, but I didn't get the rest. I think I would have rather gotten tickets for Wicked again."

re: Things that annoy you...

Whe people say Rent is evil and very very very very very very very very very inapproprate.

When people think Wicked is horrible before they see the show, just by hearing the storyline.

re: Things that annoy you...

How about:
"I love the movie RENT!! I hear they made a Broadway show because of it."

Or: "Oh my god! I'm seeing RENT on Broadway! I hope it's as good as the movie!"

My personal favorite:
Me: Oh, you like RENT? I've been a fan for a couple years now...
Person: I love it! I've been a fan ever since I saw the movie trailer!

"children&farts"

haha...when people's cell phones go off in the theatre or they get up multiple times in the show...that happened to me at rent last week. VERY annoying.

re: Things that annoy you...

When I mention Rent and people go "omg that movie was SOOO GOOD. I LOVED IT!!"

When people think they are theatre educated and know everything about it and when you ask them something about it they say "Well, I saw Wicked and that is like the best show EVAR."

There are SO many more that I just can't think of.

When people assume that Avenue Q is a children's show about puppets and it's dumb.

When people make stupid assumptions about why a show closed. Such as,"their poster ads had weird colors which made no one see it."
