We received over 140 submissions for “You Might Be A RedCoat If…”! A committee of volunteers who were NOT attending the event judged the entries and the top ten were voted on by those at Thankapalooza 2025!
1. You have been good friends with someone for many years and only know them by their first name.
2. You know the difference between Meg, Meg, and Peggy.
3. You direct people with your open hand, no pointing fingers!
4. You’ve cut off the complete sleeve of all your white shirts.
5. Your jacket pockets hold more than the contents of a local CVS.
6. Wednesday, 6:00 am, is like Christmas morning!
7. You can get 1000 ladies in and out of the bathroom in 20 minutes.
8. Your idea of dinner and a show is really a show and a large pretzel.
9. You wonder what will happen if you do NOT call him Michael?
10. You know how to safely get out of every theatre without going through the front door.
YOU MIGHT BE A REDCOAT IF… YOU WONDER WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF YOU DO NOT CALL HIM MICHAEL?
A HUGE Thank You to those who participated in the World Premiere of RedCoats Live! The cast, musicians, singers and dancers rehearsed for weeks to bring this show to life – and it was amazing!
