"You probably missed less than you thought: the play itself didn't start until 2:08."
Yeah, I figured it didn't start right at the dot of 2:00. I think I got it at around 2:30 (on the clock), so I guess I missed about 15-20 minutes. Will have to try to watch what I missed in the archive.
I know, how amazing that, on top of everything else, Mark did the sound cues himself. And there were no hitches at all as far as that, and as for his amazing performance, he only stumbled very slightly on literally two or three lines throughout the entire show. I know he co-wrote the play, and performed it many times (though years ago), but I still think it's an absolutely astounding achievement. Why did he have such short notice? Was Jesse Tyler Ferguson originally supposed to do this? Or is it just that so many of these things are being organized at the very last minute? |
