(Incidentally, when I did Fiddler in the West End in 2007-8, I would often take Beverley Klein [who played Golde] aside and this conversation would occur:

Al: Hey Bev, just so you know I have… well, I've played the role.
Beverley: Right.
Al: So, ya know, if you ever want to have some loooong, thorough sessions with me, or listen to my 'tips' I am just MORE than happy to help…. because...well, because I've played the role…. when I was fifteen…
Beverley: ...Thanks.

Then we'd laugh and laugh and she'd tell me to go find something in the "barn."

During the scene where she finally makes it onto the Corny Collins show, just as I'm about to say "And I'm Tracy!..." I tripped on Link's feet and fell onto my stomach. But that didn't stop me from continuing the scene. I spun onto my side like a break dancer, leaned my head on my hand for a pose, then proceeded to jump up and finished the dance. I did have a bruise the size of Canada after that. Nothing like live theatre.

Jason - Yes, notice my chest is painted to give me "muscles." I always assumed it made me look sexy, especially with that sparkly top. When in reality it just makes you think... god what an unfortunate, sun-blotched, virgin.

That's comedy. That's live theatre, folks.
