ceebeegeeI'm reading ATC right now and someone posted this:
Funny story--when I did Brigadoon in HS, Tommy jumped a few pages of dialogue in the Lundie scene, so the audience never heard what happens if anyone leaves. So during intermission we set up a mike backstage, the director scribbled down some dialogue, and while we were chasing Harry, the audience heard "Mr. Lundie! why is everyone chasing Harry Beaton?" "OH dinna you know laddie--if anyone leaves Brigadoon the town will disappear forever!")
Oh SHIT, that is funny. I just have this image of everyone running around, beating the bushes looking for Harry Beaton and then this random expositional dialogue is heard, like the voice of God. I'm literally crying right now, I find this so funny. Man, I love stage screw-ups.
