I'm really liking that Nederlander marquee.

I know like 7 people who wrote on the wall. Including myself.

My friend Wrote on Adam "Hey Baby your hot lets get married" and my other friend wrote on Wilson saying "Angel is hot with drag or not =)"

I wrote in big letters somewhere on the wall.

I even asked the people inside the office for a sharpie XD

It's a wall sooner or later someones gonna write on it or knock it down.


I like how G&D is fixing it but I do miss the paint lol

I would like to know what you wrote.

Or, then again, maybe I wouldn't.

No Em, I don't think you would.

It's a wall sooner or later someones gonna write on it or knock it down.

What does that even mean?!

I'm loving the new marquee with all the old-school bulbs. This is what a Broadway marquee should look like, unlike the eyesores on 44th and 45th. I can't wait to see this baby once she's all lit up!

Yeah, the new marquee is pretty snazzy. I must admit.

[Celra]

Posted: 1/4/09 at 10:10pm

Well I wrote like 3 things and they were very long and one was kinda sexual lol

As for what does it mean that someones gonna wrote on it sooner or later. It's a wall you can't seriously expect it to be exactly like it is the day they painted it. It will eventually chip or get damaged or pissed on.


It's not like I went to the theather and carved "I LOVE RENT 4 EVER!" Into the wall or something like that. It's a wall you painted it once and you can paint it again and the damage is gone.

I read that that green is here to stay. I think that's appropiate, keeping a memento of the show like that.

[TheActr97J]

The green on the doors? I seriously doubt the Nederlanders are going to leave that on the front of their painstakingly-restored, flagship theater.

Celra, there is NO excuse for vandalism.

[Manny2]

Posted: 1/4/09 at 10:16pm

You never know, maybe it's gonna be worked into the new design somehow.

The new show owes RENT NOTHING. It's a remnant of the old production that the Nederlander's won't keep, nor should they. My suggestion would be to just take out the wall and move it somewhere, so that Rent fans still have a direction to turn to while doing silent prayer.

Celra, there is NO excuse for vandalism.


Someones just going to come along and paint it again so why not?

Vandalism? Not Really now if I went and smashed a window then we would have some problems.

Celra, they may paint over the graffiti on the walls, but it's still vandalism to write on them. You can't just write all over a wall because you want to.

[TheActr97J]

Posted: 1/4/09 at 10:25pm

It seems like they're going with an ornate, classic Broadway look with this house. I highly doubt that green will remain in the end. There is really no reason for them to leave it.

Vandalism is vandalism is vandalism. How is taking sharpies and writing all over the front of a public building, a historical building at that, not vandalsim?

[PiraguaGuy2]

Posted: 1/4/09 at 10:27pm

Because they did it for LOVE.

Chipping and natural damage =/= vandalism.

Are you actually this stupid, or just playing dumb?

It's a wall you painted it once and you can paint it again and the damage is gone.

So they should just keep paying to paint it over and over and over again every time you and your idiot friends and everyone else who thinks like you decides to write on it?

ANYway.

It seems like they're going with an ornate, classic Broadway look with this house.

It does, and I love it. It's perfect for the upcoming tenant, and I think it's charming.

You forgot dedication

If I wrote all over the front of your house with Sharpie and said, "Well, just paint over it," I think your family would still press vandalism charges against me!

But back on topic, I LOVE the new theater. From what I could see of the inside, it's going to be stunning!

[blaxx]

Posted: 1/4/09 at 10:32pm

Celra, do you like posting on message boards because you love people knowing you're stupid and enjoy the humiliation?

[Celra]

I have done so before.

[Celra]

Posted: 1/4/09 at 10:35pm

Celra, do you like posting on message boards because you love people knowing you're stupid and enjoy the humiliation?

Very much the opposite. I could care less what any of you on this board think of me.

I'll do what I want and you can do whatever it is you want.

Ohhh, that crosses a line.

Once you cross that line, you end up in a nice little place called "the municipial courthouse" where you will be a given a magical little slip of paper with far too many zero's and comma's.

That's not fun, neither is vandalism. At first I thought, "you know what, I'm a renthead too, I guess this user is just more...loud....about it than I am." But now I don't know what to think...

Responding to an earlier question, no I am not the person who posted on 13fans.com, someone must have taken the picture from this thread.

While I miss the old Nederlander, it was appropriate for Rent, it would be ridiculous to have Guys and Dolls in the old theater. And I always support restorations and renovations of historical buildings.

To add something to this thread, I was talking to someone who's been working at the theater, and he believed the remaining green was going to be repainted, although as far as he knew, the "official" wall, in the back of the theater, was not being changed or repainted. Although I suppose that can be worked on later.

Celra, You clearly don't have a sense of right and wrong. Writing on a public building, whatever the situation is is wrong. Your doing a VERY bad job at justifying something that is unjustifiable.

Oh, I totally forgot about all these renovations. Now that I"m back in the city I must take a walk by!
