Things of note prior to the start of John Proctor is the Villain on Broadway a couple weeks ago.

First of all, Tom and I were on our own. For the past probably ten Broadway shows either of us has seen, we've gone with other parties who see shows idk twice a month? I mean Danielle's dad used to be on the Tony committee for chrissakes I'm not messing around here. So being on our own meant we had to forge our own path, pick our own seats, keep track of our own tickets, figure out when to get to the theater all by ourselves....

So we get there:

Approaching the queue to get in John Proctor is the Villain.
Foreshadowing: Notice the color scheme.

Right after I took this sort of random photo of the barricade signage for unknown reasons, perhaps I was thinking I'd need an alibi to prove my whereabouts I have no idea, I see something actually photo-worthy.

I text out this photo to Danielle because she has seen John Proctor is the Villain two times already and has tickets for closing night in September:

A guy in the line is dressed in EXACTLY THE SAME COLORS
AS THE MARQUES FOR JOHN PROCTOR IS THE VILLAIN.

Did this dapper fellow honestly dress up to match the marques? I'm beside myself. 

Turns out Danielle is right down the street seeing Bueno Vista Social Club... but she's already in her seat. Note to self: go earlier next time like the pros.

I tell Danielle to make sure she has her pink patent leather shoes lined up for closing night otherwise she will be completely outdone in the spirit category. 

Here's two views from my front row balcony seat we selected all by ourselves. This view is me slouching:

And this is the view if I sit up straight:

Note to self: Sit up straight!!!!
