Paleyfest Aftermath
What: A lot of people (suprisingly) are not familiar with the Paleyfest event. If you're an online streamist, media junkie or use the web as your form of television...then, you probably know what I'm talking about (think Hulu.com). If not, then read on....
Paleyfest is basically a week long event held every year where, the audience and/or viewers are able to participate in meeting and seeing their favorite celebrities of a particular show in person (yes, live & in the flesh). At this event, fans are able to see previous episodes, ask questions and finally, get a signature (if you're lucky) of their favorite characters from the show.
Who: As an adventurous gal, I was offered free tickets to the show called Bones and of course, I jumped at the chance. I admit, I'm not a fan of the show but, I sure met a lot of die-hard fans (you name it, they were all there). One woman brought in a pair of shoes that she claimed were "customized" for John (really?<----that was sarcasm). Another woman, gave one of the celebrities a long heart-felt story about how he had changed her life. As a bystander, I was having a great time imagining what the heck are these people thinking? But, I guess I could relate to a certain extent, I mean I would probably go ga-ga over David Beckham if I ever did meet him (sigh).
Where: Saban Theatre was the main reason I wanted to take the opportunity to participate in this event. Walking in to this place was definitely not what I expected. The room is the same size as an auditorium and it's hard not to fall in love with the art deco structure. Apparently, this place was called Wilshire Theatre and it is one of the historic theatre in Beverly Hills as well as an L.A. classic landmark.
