Here is the synopsis before Bakker, before Swaggart, before Robertson, there was Aimee Semple McPherson, the first media superstar evangelist. Her spectacular fall from grace is a real-life story tangled with scandalous love affairs and a tabloid-frenzied trial.
I really liked the play! The lead actress is really talented, the stage is beautiful and the entire play was thoroughly entertaining. :) The best part of the night was our 'Kathie Lee' sighting when we were grabbing our intermission drinks. Here is what happened:
Sarah: I think that is Kathie Lee's sister behind us...
Lindsay: No, Sarah that is the REAL Kathie Lee
Sarah: I want to go talk to her and tell her I watch her all the time.
Lindsay: I don't think we should let's just snap a picture of her from here
Sarah: No, I'm going to go over there.
Lindsay: Okay, I want my picture with her too.
Sarah: Hi, can we get you to sign these
Kathie Lee: Sure
Sarah (after a few drinks): I just wanted to tell you that I do my physical therapy to you every morning because I am unemployed!
Lindsay: (Thinking WTF Sarah... seriously)
Kathie Lee (awkwardly): Feel better sweetie!
Yep that is my amazing friend Sarah... she was starstruck and just couldn't really contain herself. I wouldn't say I was mortified but I was definitely in shock and awe of my bestie. After we snapped a picture with Kathie Lee, I couldn't stop laughing... I was basically crying! But Sarah thank you because now I have Kathie Lee Giffords autograph a photo with her and the memory of you making an @$& of yourself. Thank you!
Yep... Kristin and I are laughing really hard because of Sarah being amazing!
Everything about tonight was fun! I have the best friends in the whole world and I am so glad we could enjoy Saving Aimee, meeting Kathie Lee Gifford and laughing at Sarah all night long. What a wonderful day at the theatre. Check out the ridic shirt that was purchased and the amazing autograph I got because of my wonderful friend Sarah.
You can almost see Kathie Lee behind us.... :)
omg, made me giggle! sounds like a fun night!
