On Thursday, Manuel was tweeting with his rabid followers when one begged him to come meet with them on the street after his show:

But he knows they’re just excited:
The New York Post reports that police put a detail of about 20 cops around the theater to prevent people from blocking traffic/rending the clothing of stars into scrap-bookable shreds.

The thought of even approaching this crowd wigs me out, so that’s completely understandable.
