I am horrible with titles...

@ Random Girl:

Stalkers yes, drunks no. I have stalkers too. If I ever see this one man again I am going to just stop and scream security... as his line was "I am enjoying you enjoying the children" yep... that kind of creepy, but he wasn't a drunk on my lap.


And Stotenhalo6: while that is a great idea it gets super painful after 2 hours in that position, though no worry, I am the only fairy out there that wears pants, I don't leave any chance for things to be uncovered.

Why don't we all make a point of helping our fellow festies (be they cast, playtron, boothie etc) out should the need arise?    Even I have a stalker, but I also am not afraid to tell him where to go, and how to get there, and make a huge scene.  I also have plenty of friends to walk out with.  Mine is creepy, and I am not too worried about my safety so much.  
 
Sapphire, I think your best bet is to change how you sit, and not be so timid.  Do you have a cushion you could frilly/fairy dust up to be your saving grace for sore knees and rear end?

Don't be afraid to firmly tell the drunken sot that he/she removes their hands NOW, or you dial the SS to come, and they will.   Believe me, speaking as the mother of a young lady, I would understand if you dropped character to tell someone with grabby hands not to touch you.  
Speaking of which, my daughter wears a whistle.   It started as a joke, but I am glad she has it.   She has had some people approach her after she has performed, and it freaks her out a little.  

Carry your phone with you.  Where is your husband at this time?  Can he keep an eye on you?
If he can't be around, most people are decent, if you need help.  Ask.  
If you can't carry your phone, memorize the SS direct number, and ask to borrow a parent's to dial for security.  Chances are, they will be more than happy to dial for you.
