Wow! GREY GARDENS is finally closing this weekend! — Page 2

Brody enjoys doing a sort of "ignoramus humor," where he pretends not to have the information everyone knows full well that he has. You've seen it before. Someone starts a thread about someone and Brody chimes in with "So and so? Who is that? Oh, weren't they on this back in the 1980s?" or some such nonsense. Those are usually accompanied by a picture.

For example -

Say someone posts a thread about Phylicia Rashad. Brody will swoop in and say something like. "Who is Phylicia Rashad? I've never heard of her. Where did she come from? Oh wasn't she on some little sitcom in the 80s with that one comedian."

Then there comes the picture. Brody might say, "Phylicia enjoys ham on Easter. As does her sister, noted choreographer and actress Debbie Allen."

Appparantly he sucked off Raul Esparza, too.

Oh who hasn't?

---

About Raul? Or Bernadette's hair?

---

Well, they both perform "Being Alive" gorgeously, so I'd touch their hair.

My understanding is that 2 producers are pulling out No more funding Sad because the show is fantastic I met Ebersole at the stage door and when asked what her next project was she replied "rest" Someone asked about London and she didn't really comment one way of another

Debbie1313, is your period key broken?

Yeah

A friend of mine was at a reception with someone very close to the show about 2 weeks ago and was told that they want to film it but doesn't think it is going to happen.

Did anyone watch the audio slide show with Mary Louise Wilson talking about the show's closing at New York Times online?

Agreed.

Well, I had hoped to catch this, BATB, and Gypsy this week, but there was a family emergency and our plans were scrapped. I'm ok with not seeing BATB, because I'm sure it will tour soon; and Gypsy will most likely transfer to Broadway, but I know I will not be able to see Grey Gardens again unless the slim chances of a tour come through, so I am extremely sad and disappointed I will never be able to witness the brilliance of Ms. Christine Ebersole. I had even ordered a Grey Gardens poster from BroadwayNewYork to have signed by the cast. Do you think it would it be too much/obnoxious to send the poster to Ms. Ebersole along with a self addressed [poster sized] envelope to have it signed?
I know the answer is probably yes, but I really want to have some sort of connection with such an outstanding role that will go down in history.

Don't do it. It won't make it in time, so you would never get it back.

Oh, right, I didn't even think of that. I just checked her website and there is an address to send fan mail:
P.O. Box 1291
Maplewood, NJ 07040

Though I can't imagine a poster fitting inside a P.O. box.
