Thank You:
27 May 2008
Michael wanted to say thank you to all the people who came to see him in Va in The Happy Time.
"I just wanted to thank all those people that came to the shows and said hello afterwards. It means so much that people would travel a great distance to see me in a show. From people that have been coming to see me since the ALW tour in '99 to most recently Les Mis on broadway. I just wanted to express my thanks. And to the Plushie Girl, the doll is great".
