    Do you mean place or play? The first place I ever saw was probably a hospital room. The first play I ever saw was Cats. On Broadway. My friend’s mother made us read the book of poems it was based on. I had a better time just being in NYC.

    The first play I ever saw was early in high school, (very late 1980s), titled: “Secrets.” A performance art piece of slowly interlacing vignettes, edited-by-ReagaNation, it told of the slippery-slope dangers of promiscuous teenage sex in the wake of a newly heterosexual threat of AIDS; with an undertow of fire and brimstone devouring every worst case scenario. I recall it as frightening and somewhat effective, though no more or less so than was my fear of eternal damnation!

    Despite the fact that I majored in film, I’ve never seen a professional live play, only the ones performed at my college (syracuse university) by the drama department. The first play I ever saw them do was Grapes of Wrath. Chazz P is such an amazing actor and I’d love to see him live.

    The first play I ever saw was “Auntie Mame”
    at the Riverhead High School Auditoriam in Riverhead N.Y.

    It was wonderful and sparked a passion for Theatre in me!

    The first play I ever saw was Little Women. My friend recieved tix for her birthday and took us with her to see it in Hollywood. It was such a great experience and we had the best seats! first row, middle on Mez level. Now, we want to see as many plays as possible. The day the A Bronx Tale plays (Sept 14th) will be my 43rd birthday. It would be a great birthday present!

    I was actually IN a play in high school… A Charlie Brown Christmas :)

    The first play I remember clearly was Les Misérables, it was a class trip. I think I fell in love with theater that night: first row, center, balcony… or at least it felt like first row, center, balcony. The characters looked up and sang to me, the view made me feel like I was in the middle of things, Marius loved me, my heart was with Éponine, and it is one of those odd things that fills you with warmth and joy and sorry even as a far, distant memory.

    Phantom of the Opera, at the Pantages Theatre, at the ripe old age of six. Loved it.

    It was a tiny and somewhat dank theater in East Hollywood; this was 1982 and I was in high school. The play was simply called, “Piaf”, and starred an American actress as France’s ‘Little Sparrow’.

    It was one of those roles where the actor inhabits their charactor so completely that at no point are they any thing other than who they are supposed to be. So, she sang, she danced a little, she talked both comically and dramatically and it was all as ‘Piaf’. It was fantastic amd magical; this brilliant actor was unknown then and probably still is. I can’t even remember her name, but I can still vividly make out her various incarnations as France’s greatest pop singer.

    This is one of the aspects of theater that I love best: actors that are lost within their charactors. It is such a refreshing departure from mainstream cinema where one never forgets that it is Julia Roberts or Harrison Ford they are seeing, no matter how well they ‘get into’ their charactors. Ah, the theater!

    The first play I ever saw was Huck Finn at a small theatre in the Inland Empire with my 4th grade class. I fell in love with the actor that played the lead…soooo cute! =:)

    The first play I ever saw was The Music Man when I was in middle school. I was a prop organizer and got to watch from backstage. It was quite an experience, as I got to learn the inner-workings of a play and it’s performers.

  • 16 Adam // Sep 10, 2008 at 11:16 am

    Danny and the Deep Blue Sea at UCLA. The actors were amazing and the small setting really got me interested in live performance rather than traditional entertainment.

    My first play was the Wizard of Oz when I was 4 years old. I got lost in the theater and it was very weird but I wasn’t afraid, I just sat down on the steps and watched the show for about 25 minutes before my mom found me. People were asking me if I needed help to find my parents and I remember saying, “shhh, no thanks, no talking during the show!”
    A huge fan of theater since then!

    P.S. (would love to win the A Bronx Tale tkts!)

    The first play i ever saw when i was 7 years old. It was Rupplestilskin. I still remember the set, the stage, and the fantastical feeling of getting my first autograph after the show from these actors who were like Gods, living in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
    I never stopped wanting to be them.

  • 19 Octavio // Sep 10, 2008 at 7:35 pm

    One of the first plays I ever saw was A Streetcar Named Desire and one that I liked quite a bit was Beauty and the Beast, which I saw at the Glendale Theatre. I have been trying to make my wife see the movie, A Bronx Tale, but she is simply uninterested, and goes to sleep thinking its a guys movie. I hope I win the tickets so I can take her to the theatre to see this play live, I don’t think she will fall asleep and love it.
