gzt: It was denied at the time. Then confirmed by the guy that denied it, then denied by the guy that guy blamed. Then semi-admitted by the contracted PR firm who claims it may possibly have hired some actors as 'coordinators' for the event.
From what I remember at the time it was started by some Hollywood gossip rag where someone thought they recognised someone in the audience, and then some other publication published what they claimed was a leaked email. If it was actually genuine then all he did was hire a claque for opening night, a standard practice that goes back to ancient Greece and not really news. It certainly doesn't support the claim that the audience was "largely made up of actors".
