You only got paid if you win on stage. he's hoping someone breaks a leg. 000
doug mestanza @dougm2174.bsky.social · 05/05/2026@jesszafarris.com. The legs are the black drapes that are hanging vertically that separate the different wings where you enter on and off stage from. If you broke the sideline from the audience, then you broke a leg and then you would get paid. 010
