Jennifer
Garner Confronts Angry Fans Over Broadway Strike
12/3/07
Ben Affleck's
actress wife Jennifer Garner is delighted the Broadway strike is over
because she's tired of getting attacked in the street by angry ticket
holders to her show. The Daredevil star is making her Broadway debut in a
revival of hit play Cyrano, opposite Kevin Kline, but was forced to leave
the show for over a week when the stagehands dispute became a walk-out
last week (begs19Nov07).
And theatre fans made her feel like she was to blame for the strike
that upset their Thanksgiving week plans in New York.
She explains, "I am so happy that it's over. It was devastating.
"We had just opened, audiences were having the best time and to
just say, `OK, now we're not doing it for the next couple of weeks,' it
was the strangest feeling.
"People would be waving their tickets in my face on the street,
saying, `I came here to New York to see you do this play.' I was like, `I
wish I could do it for you right here.'"
