ok, so i've noticed something, and i want everyone's opinions... is it just me or do alot of musical theater...ummm... how do i say it...not stalk exactly...well, yes. all i know is that the people i hang out with, we all have our certain performers that we don't know but love. and they're local people or people not many know about... so is this really strange to anyone or do other people do this? just kinda takin' a poll... :)

I think you meant CONsensus.

But other than that, I have no idea what you said in either post.

The question of when a devoted fan crosses the line into obsessive stalker is a good one. What are the boundries that a responsible fan must respect? Because, in theory, the actors and actresses we all love owe all of us NOTHING when the curtain goes down.

I assume this is what you mean

Has anyone stalked their favourtie broadway star? Who waits outside after their performances?, who goes to places they know they might be?

I have never done this, however I did sleep out waiting to see Janet Jackson once when I was 16 (I know not same but close)

I think you mean.. is there somoene NOT famous that you obsess over who is in the business. It could be a local actor or a "2nd banan" in a role somewhere.... Like how I felt about Susan Egan when she was still the talented girl from Music Circus in Sacramento.

or how I like Judy McLane and she is not a "name"

Have I ever waited outside a stage door for my favorite performer? Yes. Have I ever been in the same place they were because they were there? Yes.

Oh wait... that doesn't count cause I was invited by them lmao. Nevermind

I actually do have a few actors that I guess I stalk, but I know all them pretty well, I've worked with them on a show, and they get to do more than I since I go off to school, when Im in town I call them to find out what they are doing. Theres actually a group of them...Does that count?

Sometimes if you stalk performers long enough they'll let you start a website for them.

Or they'll let you be their understudy, at which point you can try to seduce their husband and...if that fails...call Celeste Holm and she'll help you out!

I know Adam Pascal moved out to NJ because the obsessive fans were going beyond stalking.

No disrespect to the actors, but why else would some of those people have their own websites?

People who only seem to post on the topics which contain one particluar performer and go on and on about them like they are God sort of irk me! Does that count?

Posted: 10/7/03 at 10:16pm

TapBABY... should we be stalking you? Are you famous?

[tapbaby2356]

Posted: 10/7/03 at 10:31pm

i WISH i were famous...maybe someday! hehe i'm pretty experienced in the stalker area. i do what i call "friendly stalking" of local actors and what not.. but i've been "creepy stalked" by some people... you're welcome to stalk in a non creepy way! but no, not famous yet!
