[007Squidney]

who else remebers this from RuPauls Drag U?

[csduncan2012]

@import26 i am a performer.... That is the best feeling hearing people cheer fir you... An active audience is the best it gives them energy to use for their character.

[MsOctoberstorm]

who plays the blonde one

[TheStar2bella]

@MsOctoberstorm Megan Hilty. 

[dancaqueen239]

if your gonna record shut the hell up so we can hear what their singing :s

[import26]

I'm sure the performers ADORE when they can't be heard over loud screams. I bet they are just thrilled about it.

[Hippomillepede]

@import26 actually, yea they are.

[etcreviews1]

I just realized that the radio snippet at the beginning says President Bartlet, THE WEST WING!

[irkenequine]

I swear to god I have seen that heavier set female ensemble actor in 50 shows now; I am certain she was in Wicked a few years ago....wonder her name.

[ShellTard]

@irkenequine youre correct... her name is Megan Hilty

But if youre thinking about Stephanie J Block, she was in Wicked too

[irkenequine]

@ShellTard No no, I'm talking about an ensemble actress in the background. I've seen Megan Hilty in this show and a few others as well as SJB.

[ShellTard]

@irkenequine oh haha im sorry. i wasnt sure because neither of them arent really heavy set

[ruyona]

Yeah, what's the point of even going to a performance if you're going to scream over the actor's singing. It has nothing to do with appreciation for the actor--it's just the audience's way of showing that they recognize someone.

[Seyahhsod]

She's makes the PERFECT Violet Neustead (next to Lilly Tomlin of course, but both are so perfect).

[anon0987654]

Its not frustrating as an actor for people to woo and clap when you come on stage or start to dance or sing its the best feeling ever! It's not right in a really intense scene but in fun songs liken this its gonna happen so why be grumpy about it!

[noodle0912]

@anon0987654 It's because we can't hear what's being sung when people are clapping and cheering like crazy. I understand the enthusiasm, but tickets are expensive! We don't fork over a ton of money to listen to people cheer- we want to hear every last line. It just isn't fair to those who are trying to listen. It should be common courtesy to be quiet during the performance.

[anon0987654]

@noodle0912 yeah I understand that, especially if its to the extent that you cant hear, its just if everyone is cheering then being grump doesn't achieve anything.... I was more aiming my comment at people saying actors don't like it rather than from an audience point of view

[RandomPersonman]

alright...im all for giving a famous actor recognition by applause but...the screaming is rediculous....wtf

[EvanK]

I love the original broadway production..

[inufan330]

boy, you had a great seat!

[Justforthestage]

i'm sorry but the hollaring is not "part of the expirience" as an audience member it's distracting, and as an actor it's frustrating. You missed the opening line of every character...jeez.

[rc276]

@Justforthestage Agreed completely its very frustrating when someone does that when you go on and its your line...

[ValtronW]

This came to my area about a month ago and I never got tickets.

*goes and cries in the corner*

[yayayoga]

Ugh I love the material, and this excellent cast .... but the set and projections are too much. Jeff Calhoun was right. They eclipse the cast.

[Ryanlaskey]

anyone else think alison janey would make the most AMAZING madame morrible?

[icklerob]

This looks horrible.

[JVS1096]

U got to be kidding! U don't like this show?!!!!!

[JVS1096]

SJB!!!'

[AdamEfimoff]

@MrsSimonnnn no no tony nomination no good is good that critics are right this once.

[AdamEfimoff]

the set is awful

[phoenix0glance]

I loooooove it!!!

[ssgower]

i HATE it when people do this.. the bows are there for a reason! show your appreciation at the end!

[Hippomillepede]

@ssgower As an actor, a lively audience can take a good performance and make it memorable. People need to be vocal and encourage eachother and the performers. Plus this has some kick ass stars. Of course people are going to hoot.

[ErikInTheCity]

My god. The screaming.

[AdamEfimoff]

@ErikInTheCity yeh i can understand clapping but the screaming is awful and this show is awful

[DefyingGravity767]

Thanks for posting! What's the date?

[kyleorlando]

@DefyingGravity767 I'm sorry. I don't know the date of this performance.

[aileyboy]

@kyleorlando is the whole show on here
