He's a faker, and you've been taken in by his con. And in doing so, you are enabling him. He is doing more damage to aspergers than papa's words ever could. -Chane/Liverpool on me having asperger syndrome.
Once, Cheyenne Jackson invited me backstage at Xanadu. Oh, wait. That was just a dream.
Sadly none also. I have always been a little envious while waiting at the stage door when I see people being escorted backstage. Updated On: 4/9/08 at 12:56 PM

Got to go backstage after Spring Awakening through a friend who has connections to the cast. It was a pretty cool experience to see/meet a bunch of people, although that space is craamped.
I asked people who worked for the show. If you ask actors, they'll say "No, for insurance reasons" The one time I got turned down by a worker was at Wedding Singer when the stage manager was standing outside and said"No, due to it's the second preview and everything is very chaotic."

I've never been backstage for anything professional at all. When I did see the stage door to the Shubert though, I was thinking how easy it might have been to sneak in. LOL! I figured those would be guarded from the outside, but I guess I was wrong, unless it's after the show.

Annie Get Your Gun w/ Cheryl Ladd, Victor/Victoria with Julie, La Cage revival all at the Marquis. Mamma Mia, with the original cast at the Winter Garden.
A portion of Patti LuPone's dressing room at the St. James Theatre. You can see the white barred windows (that overlook 44th Street) in the mirror reflection and the painting was a gift from Erik Preminger -- it belonged to his mom, Gypsy Rose Lee:
NOTE: this dressing room originally was 2 separate dressing rooms. A wall was removed.

We must have different Gods. My God said "do to others what you would have them do to you". Your God seems to have said "My Way or the Highway".
Damn Brody Fosse is that really Patti's dressing room? That's bigger/nicer than most of the apartments I've been to. Not to mention, way nicer than any dressing room I've ever had.
