Aw, so Darren and the Hedwig tour said good-bye to San Francisco today (Sunday, October 30).   I can imagine how folks are feeling sad about this.   (Lilikoiluv, don't be too sad.  )  But I am so glad of the great memories that seeing Darren in this heartfelt work of art, that have been gifted his fans, including our lovely Lilikoiluv. 


And I'm so glad--that based on reviews and tweets, including from a few Hedheads who saw him in SF--that Darren has only gotten stronger in the role.   Stupendous job, Darren!     I am sooooo proud of you, man!   


And the next chapter is Darren begins the Los Angeles leg of the Hedwig tour on Tuesday (Los Angeles:  November 1- November 27).   Hubby and I are seeing Darren on Thursday.  I am so looking forward to it.  This will be an evening show (the show I saw on Broadway with him in the role was a matinee), so I am curious as to how that makes a different experience. 






Beautiful pic showing the emotion that Darren is feeling :

For the first time in my life, I confessed my love for a man. Told him how his first tour 3 years ago was my first concert ever and how my life has changed since then. Also how I supported him as Prince Eric out in LA and came back to support his hometown run of #hedwigonbway here in SF. From falling in love with him on TV as Blaine Anderson to #darrencriss himself on and off the stage… my heart could not be any more full.  http://ift.tt/2f2yQVb

Let’s talk about the current Hedwig, Darren Criss. What does he bring to the show?


What Darren brings to Hedwig is this youthful, rock and roll energy. He’s got the free, open thing that the younger kids have now – they’re so much more accepting these days.

Years ago, you wouldn’t think of a straight heartthrob actor playing this role. It’s actually shocking. He sings great, looks great, and is a little firecracker.

Leanna Jensen   Loving the pre-show dance!! We saw you today, and the show was absolutely incredible! You and Lena are a dynamic team! Got to meet you both after the show... perfect ending to a fabulous show!


Elizabeth Hart Whelan    Such a fabulous show last night! Darren, Lena, and Tits of Clay were all so amazing.

Hedwig and the Angry Inch was so incredible last night! The songs were great and it was funny and Darren was just amazing. He is such a talented actor and singer, and to stand up on that stage and have the whole audience captivated for an hour and a half with the majority of it being just him shows such dedication, confidence and commitment. I was awestruck and literally don’t have enough words to describe him. Anyone who thinks he’s just a preppy kid from Glee who sings pop songs needs to see this show, because he’s so much more than that.

Darren was just so lovely afterwards, he took time to speak and sign things for everyone who was waiting at the stage door and was so humble and kind. When we told him we were from Scotland, he broke his no-selfie to take a photo with us to thank us for coming and gave my sister a hug. He was genuinely such a sweet guy, and I seriously can’t thank him enough. It’s always lovely when celebrities meet up to their expectations!

Meeting Darren Criss was an absolute dream come true. I’ve tried to get tickets to see him in various things for the past seven years (no joke), but none of that mattered when he was standing in front of me and talking to me. While I was completely starstruck, it was so easy to talk to him and it felt as though I was talking to a friend, not some well known celebrity.

Thank you Darren for always being my teenage dream and the company of Hedwig for putting on one hell of a show!
