Do you think that some crazy fan who watched the video will try getting backstage with the passage ways Will showed?

Question.
Is will married? I always here him talk about his kids, but never the mother of them.

Okay, so I already knew Allison is the cutest girl ever, but I have to say, after watching this video, that Caissie comes really close.
Loved this video! I always love backstage tours.

Will's divorced, you can read all about his current situation if you search his name on google. And if you find the world's strangest video on youtube titled something similar to "is will swenson atheist?" he has a comment where he says he is.

In other news, you can get backstage through the second floor bathroom? Sweet! Paris is so adorable, he seems so shy and sweet. Caissie's bruise was awesome, was anybody there when she fell? It's all about the war stories of the theatre, much like the story of Cathy Rigby getting stabbed with her sword in Peter Pan.

Ok, probably a dumb question, what he said about getting down from the balcony and dancing on stage, can you really do that?

Surely they wont want the whole theatre audience coming up on stage? how do they manage it?

Let it in...while you're letting it out.

"You have two kinds of shows on Broadway – revivals and the same kind of musicals over and over again, all spectacles. You get your tickets for The Lion King a year in advance, and essentially a family... pass on to their children the idea that that's what the theater is – a spectacular musical you see once a year, a stage version of a movie. It has nothing to do with theater at all. It has to do with seeing what is familiar.... I don't think the theatre will die per se, but it's never going to be what it was.... It's a tourist attraction." Stephen Sondheim

Justin D- I have gone on stage from the balcony before, and it was totally fine. They probably don't tell everyone about it, because they don't want an overcrowding on the stage

Yeah, that's how I got down on stage, from the stairs behind the box seats. I saw people going down those, so I followed, lol. I was one of the last on stage, as I saw the stage manager telling the ushers to stop letting people down the stairs. :)
