That's great! How did you get backstage?
My friends and I were taken back stage by Marc Platt, who happened to be there because it was the first performance after Tony Noms. We got to see all the props such as Elphaba's broom, the green bottle, the trap doors, Glinda's shoes etc. It was a great experience.

Ohhhh thats awsome! I might have been able to do that (my mom works with someone who knows the producer of the show) but sadly I don't live anywhere near NY. 
I wanted to get something that an "ex"-junkie like him would really appreciate and cherish....it's a brick of heroin shaped like a heart.

I know it IS terrible not being in NY. I lived about 4 hours away, 2 and a half maybe now that I'm at school. Oh well if all goes to plan I'll be moving there for graduate school in a couple of years.

A dancer might dream to see her name in lights and mean it,
but all she really dreams is to make someone
else feel the way she did when she first saw a dancer.
And that is so beautiful-Anonymous

Posted: 2/4/05 at 1:35amIt's okay, I live in NYC too and you don't do half the things you say you'll do once you get here, trust me - that's what happened to me.

Why is everyone making it sound so easy to get backstage at this show? Should I just show up a little early and ask someone to let me backstage? How does this work?

Posted: 2/4/05 at 12:06pmIn my case, we just got lucky that Marc Platt happened to see us, and talk to us. You can get backstage if you know someone, or if you make a donation. I'm not sure what the minimum donation is, but I think I've heard it's pretty costly.
