Theatre Is Love

[plumtreeblossom]

Last night's show was the most wonderful night in Theatre@First's entire history. It was unforgettable and full of amazing goodness on so many levels.

Before the evening even began, we were completely sold out. Completely complete sell-out.

It was our traditional "Kilt & Corset Night," the special night during each run when the cast and crew shows up in sexy formal wear. Even never-dresses-up me wore my only fabulous frock and a tiara. My sweetie looked dashing in his Utilikilt.

Tom Champion, a beloved local notable, was guest announcer and he made the crowd roar with applause and laughter.

The one-act casts were all spot-on and the audience was fantastic.

But the real crescendo....

At curtain call, cast member zendzian pulled his girlfriend ayelle (a director of one of the plays) onstage from the audience. In front of a packed house and the beaming cast, he proposed to her!!!

Congratulations Nick and Amy!



Standing ovation. :-)

Awww! Did he give her one of the penguin rocks too? :D

No, he gave her a small rock, smaller than a pebble. ;)

I figured he'd do that one. *grin*

Very neat though!

I deeply regret not being able to record THAT show.

lillibet did get a video of the proposal. But I know what you mean -- the whole night was magic.

(all teary again) What could have been better than to be proposed to surrounded by almost all of my Boston family?

That is the coolest damn thing ever. Normally I don't like the idea of public proposals but I can't imagine a better place than with T@F. Awww!!! and YAAAY!!
