So I was standing in line to buy tickets to see Shrek: The Musical, and the guy behind me goes, "excuse me, haven't I seen you in a show here?" "Oh no," I said, "I've never worked for the 5th." "Yes, but I've seen you in something." "Well, I've just got back from being out of town for a few months."

We went back to purchasing our tickets when suddenly he has an "aha" moment and says, "That's it. Leavenworth!" I whirled around and said, "What did you see there?"

"I saw you in The Sound of Music. You were fantastic. Here. Take my tickets. My wife fell asleep in the restaurant and we were just going to turn them in."

So that's how Phil and I got to see Shrek. Row G. For free one night.
