I saw Saturday's matinee performance of Wicked. Needless to say, I adored it! But I have a question: Does Shoshana Bean usually get entrance applause? She got a little bit today. Not as much as Ben Vereen or Rue McClanahan, but enough to cause the actors to pause and wait for the applause to die down. I didn't give her any entrance applause because, despite the fact that I love her dearly, I just don't think she is deserving of it just yet. Maybe in a few years and after a few groundbreaking roles. I just think that entrance applause should be reserved for those who have had long-standing careers, you know?
Also, Liza Minnelli was in the audience. She stole the spotlight at the stage door after the show. She came bustling through the crowd, as if there was no room on the sidewalk. "Excuse me, excuse me," she said. People were saying, "Oh, sure!" and then they would look at who they were excusing and immediately erupted into gasps and proclamations of "It's Liza Minnelli!!" She then proceeded to walk in the stage door, all the while cheesing at the crowd, as if nothing was out of the ordinary. She sure knows how to get some attention when she wants it!
