have you ever performed in or seen a show, local, on broadway, or wherever, where there was an obvious mess-up on stage? i have several. for example, when i saw young frankenstein, Jon Patrick Walker, understudy for Dr. Frankenstein that i saw, when he came out for Tansylvania Mania, his mustache was gone. When act 2 began, the stache was back. *dramatic music*

I know that there was an incident where Megan Hilty in Wicked still hadn't gotten out of her bubble dress when she was supposed to be singing her solo in "Dear Old Shiz", so she just kept on singing while she changed. Luckily the music's cue is when she stops singing, so the orchestra did not keep playing when she was singing.
I don't know if I mentioned this already, but when I was in Fiddler on the Roof, Motel missed one of his entrances and the two actors on stage handled it in such a funny way...They just kept hugging (it was Tseitel and Tevye) because Tzeitel was SO HAPPY that her father wouldn't make her marry the butcher. Also during "The Dream" sequence, all the chorus wore masks, and mine got tangled up in my head-cover thing ( I can't remember what they're called), and it fell off, so I had to pick it up during the scene and still be a zombie!

i did les mis school edition when cosette went to the toilet with her mic still turned on i think during ephonies death scene and all anyone could hear was peeing lmao it was hilarious though

I was in a show were the directer was also a cast member and in the finale scene we sing love changes every thing from aspects of love, it starts with a solo from the director then we all gather on stage but just as we were about to our director collapsed all i could hear was a bang. the curtains were closed immeadiatly and everyone was crying, the audience of corse thought it was part of the show and started clapping.

In another show i was in one of the singers mics wasn't turned on and the MALE director had to sneek in behind her and go under he dress to fix her mic while she was singing away preetty funny also
