Thurs, October 1 - Getting my feet wet in the city - I will be watching Hamlet with Cicero at 7:00 p.m.

, meeting up with whoever is also arriving, if possible while the night is still young.

Fri, October 2 - the evening is free....not sure about the day yet....Cicero and Cyanaurora and I (as well as anyone else perhaps) have yet to figure that out.

Sat, October 3 - have a date with a few ladies at the Schoenfeld Theatre,
then afterwards....goodness only knows - obviously a little chaos and definitely a little hen party.

Sun, October 4 - the last chance to do our thing in the big apple before heading home.

Oh - and sometime along the way, try to manage to eat some great food, have a few laughs and get some sleep.....lord help us all.

I too am huge Tony fan and Les Halles has a great reputation, but lunch on Friday is out for Lu and me since I'm retrieving her at about 2 ish on Friday. And it's kinda far south for an 'in between shows' meal.

Well - I will experience it first hand on the 1st october. If you finally meet me all bruised and beaten up, you know why

re: A Steady Rain Stage Door Question
Posted On:9/24/09 at 09:26
I like stage-dooring. I think it's fun, and autographs and photos gives you a nice way to remember the event beyond memories of the show. I'm not a "Oooh, sign this, so I can sell it on Ebay" type person. I keep a scrapbook/box of all my Playbills and photos. That being said, I don't think I've ever had a worse stage door experience than at "A Steady Rain". Hugh Jackman and Daniel Craig were delightful. The crowd? Not so much. Pushing and shoving and being stepped on. Every time the door opened you got shoved around. The one cop that was there wasn't enough. I left. No signature is worth getting beat up for. If you want to stage door for this, bring some padding and a bat.

But then, when I was in London at the premier - it was like 6 hours of being squeezed from all sides like crazy while waiting - so this probably isn´t so bad after all - and shorter

Allright, and after all we are truly dedicated so I guess it's worth it

I won't need padding, I'm a little overweight so I've got all the padding I need...

But NOBODY (aside from the hundreds of yelling fans) is there to go with me on the 1st.
