| The documentary's angle seems a bit strange. From the emphasis on Cats and Starlight Express and the talk about the guy being arrested at the stage door for stalking, I would guess that the director is not being driven by a deep love for the theater. Looking at imdb.com, it seems he's from Australia and his main background is as a producer on reality shows like The Real Housewives of Melbourne and The Amazing Race. | |

| Mark Dooley, the Australian film and TV producer behind ''Repeat Attenders,'' has been working on this project for years. In a 2016 interview, Dooley said he loves theater and is fascinating by fans who would see the same shows over and over. Asked if romance had ever blossomed between superfans, Dooley said: ''I recall a Canadian couple who met at the Stage Door of 'Phantom' in Toronto. They got married as Christine and Raoul at a 'Phantom'-themed wedding. Another fan changed her name to Christine Daae and married her Raoul!'' And is Dooley a superfan, too? He says: ''I’m a big fan of 'Wicked,' 'Les Miserables' and 'Into the Woods.' I’ve seen 'Wicked' 12 times, so I know there’s a Superfan lurking in me…but one of the characters in the Documentary has seen 'Rent' 1,169 times, so I guess I still have a long way to go!'' |

| I love Star Trek movies and seen them dozens of time at home but don’t come close to a thousand. My entire theater attendance number is probably around 2-3 thousand—I think my list of different shows (that doesn’t include repeats or revivals of shows I’ve seen already) is around 1500. | |
