A heads-up to those who don't have tickets for tonight yet:
They just released some Orchestra seats online.

Posted: 7/17/08 at 12:27pmI am [soo] there...also in the balcony!! I've been a little breathless all day and actually teared up when I watched that In the Heights video.
The last vampire is the mother of all vampires and that is the vampire of despair. It'll wake you up at 4am to say things like:
Who do you think you are kidding?
You look like a fool!
No matter how hard you try, you'll never be good enough!
Why is it that if some dude walked up to me on the subway platform
and said these things, I'd think he was a mentally ill as-h-le,
but if the vampire inside my head says it,It's the voice of reason!

It really was a magical night. Lots of fancy people, all dressed up, but also a bunch of superfans up in the balcony :) I'm not quite coherent enough for a full review, but the atmosphere was much like the first preview, including a Standing O after "Nine People's Favorite Thing."
The one thing that was super cute was that after curtain call Michael came up on stage and Hunter and Jeff each said a couple of words and got kind of choked up and it was just a beautiful moment.

Posted: 7/18/08 at 12:12am[OMG] Not a standing O, so much more like a standing [OOO]!! I brought a friend who is not a theater person, per se, and she was crying with tears of joy, understanding, and sadness about the vampires. I did wait at the door and, lordy, these kids cleaned up well for their big night. Susan looked like a goddess in her purple and gold. I. will. never. forget. it. And Hunter kissed me--I'm selling my cheek on ebay tomorrow.

Alright, I said I'd take this over here. In celebration of opening night, around the time the cast is probably a) fantastically drunk, or b) passed out in their apartments, let's compile a list of drag queen names. Here's some of Susan's (from the blog) to start:
Tiki Hut
Carol Svoracure
Coco Van
Cass Cade with Sheeting Action (her back-up dancers)
Ginger Lee
Parma Jean Cheese
Spencer Gifts
Rusty Trombone
May I just say, Carol Svoracure slays me.
