grrgoyl: (equus)
I couldn't say more about this yesterday as it all came together rather suddenly after a long day of trying to make it come together, and then it was time to nap and onto my second job -- and napping was no mean feat considering how excited I was.

I apologize to [livejournal.com profile] minikitkatgirl for subjecting her to an anxiety attack over the phone. As well I apologize to [livejournal.com profile] swankyfunk for doubting her.

Once we all got in touch, [livejournal.com profile] minikitkatgirl very quickly found us three seats together, Orchestra, Row D (which is actually six rows from the stage thanks to stupid rows AAA and BBB. But ask me if I'm worried about two rows when I was prepared to sit in the mezzanine before this find). "Oh my god!" sister Amy exclaimed. "You'll be able to see the sweat on his..." "Balls?" I helpfully supplied. "I was going to say 'upper lip' but I suppose that's true too," she finished.

I've decided to embrace my inner perv. I want to see Harry Potter naked (or the "Potter peen" as [livejournal.com profile] minikitkatgirl put it). Think less of me if you will, I don't care. The only thing that could make the play better would be if Rickman played the psychiatrist (or better still, Rickman as Alan Strang, though I think that might be pushing the age envelope way past breaking point).

If people are wondering about my change of heart after all my whinging about poverty before, well, it's the difference between $150 for a seat at the back of the theater and $116 for a seat six rows from the stage. That's a difference I simply couldn't ignore, impending dentist appointments be damned.

I can relax now that we have the tickets. Now it's the simple matter of a plane ticket to New York, not nearly as challenging. But if you click below, you'll get to read my account of waiting in line for Lion King tickets when the show toured in Denver, and why I felt such unbearable pressure to buy Equus as soon as possible. (In my eyes at least) Lion King on tour was huge. Equus, with Dan Radcliffe, on Broadway, is COLOSSAL.

I'm going to see Equus..........: )
