Last performances can be quite wonderful. That's why I've gone to so many of them, including what was supposed to have been Peters's last in Sunday in the Park With George. All I'm saying is that maybe it's time for us to consciously take it down a notch or two so that instead of jumping up multiple times during a performance and then even standing for an entire number, we could applaud loud and long. That sufficed for decades if not hundreds of years.
I feel pretty certain that Peters felt lots of love from the audience at that performance of Sunday in the Park With George. I know that Mandy Patinkin felt lots of love from the audience at the last performance of Sunday in the Park With George because he made a long curtain-call speech during which he teared up and told the audience that if any of us passed any of the cast on the street at any time in the future, we should go up to the cast member and say that we were there that afternoon. |
