I didn't see any little people (under 6) in there, but the line for the women's restoom was incredible (...ly long) at intermission! I hope you get your way eventually!

There weren't a ton of people there, we got in line pretty early so we were in the front. Which turned out not to be a good thing. They took names for about 45 minutes before the drawing, and with a minute to spare a scalper casually walked up and added his name to the bucket. And wouldn't you know, his name was drawn. So if you try it again I recommend using his method. I had the feeling he did it before every show, because the guy in charge of the drawing seemed to give him a stern lecture before giving him his tickets.lilcishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00864428560307383760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13684790.post-88516529926547611372009-04-17T14:20:00.000-06:002009-04-17T14:20:00.000-06:00And now I'm reminded why I like attending the thea...And now I'm reminded why I like attending the theatre on the East Coast.

Children under 8 aren't allowed for performances in the Conference Center, for example. <br /><br />And you were brave. I'm getting more agoraphobic (or fuddy-duddy-ish) the older I get, so I try to avoid such events. :)<br /><br />Maybe you should take advantage of some great flight prices and take GH to NYC for the real deal.Kristihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18164305839482497161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13684790.post-51367762698231871212009-04-16T23:03:00.000-06:002009-04-16T23:03:00.000-06:00Utah = idiotic behavior
