Totally F***** Impromptu Encore at closing SA perf

Now I'm jealous that I attended the second-to-last performance of Spring Awakening, where all that song got was a standing O that went on for 3 minutes. The church bells finally shut them up.

I hear the song got a standing O, and an encore that was only planned for this performance. I bet there were many SA fans and "guilty ones" alike, singing along from the audience during that part. Did you get the feeling that it was planned or impromptu?

(As a side note: There were four curtain calls when I saw the second-to-last performance, and it wasn't even the last! That was unprecedented!)

Yes, the second time, the audience was up dancing and singing.

It was def. planned...they opened the house a little late because of the rehearsal.

It was really delightful...I think they wanted and expected the audience to participate. And then, it just went back to "normal". Well, sort of normal....the vineyard scene had to stop after practically every line due to audience response. But it was all in love for Blake Daniel and Matt Doyle.

TheCharleston, why do you post negatively in numerous SA threads? Are you bitter you didn't get cast at an open call?

Waldorf: I wish Gene Kelly would teach me to Charleston.
Statler: I wish Gene Kelly would DRIVE you to Charleston!
