A big thanks to Mitchell, who despite the 15 degree temperature (or perhaps because of it?) was in fantastic sarcastic form. At one point, as they had a jolly Santa lurk behind him for the shot (one of his personal nightmares), Mitchell said, "Ummm, Ana, I need to ask Santa there to take six big steps back...I have a restraining order against him". The entire crew lost it and Santa looked like Mitchell had just accused him of being a rapist. It was awesome. Ana asked Mitchell if he likes children, and he leaned into the camera, saying, "Yes. especially YOURS" He's a friggin' genius, PLUS, he managed to squeeze in several great on-air mentions for the show so I pretty much want to marry him.
The show, by the way, is starting to pack 'em into Theater Building Chicago, now that the season is truly upon us. So don't wait, tickets are going fast, particularly for next week's holiday week performances starting Tuesday night. For tickets and info, go to theaterwit.org
Back to you, Larry and Robin.
