PAGE FOUR DANCE!!

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

Why would you guys buy candy you hate?  I would do the opposite. If it's gonna be leftover then I don't want to eat candy that I dislike. :)

DR JohnG wouldn't most trick-or-treating be almost finished by 8pm. Here it goes from after 6pm till just after 8pm. 8:30am would be the latest.

No. If it's warm, trick-or-treating can go on until 9 p.m. or even later. When I was a kid, 9 p.m. was the time to return home.

Elmore, is Brigadoon a full production or a concert version?

I've only seen it once; a community theater production. A small community theater production.

I honestly do not know, but i'm expecting, with all the dance music that's bring played, that it will be more than a concert.  The director-choreographer is Christopher Wheeldon, who staged An American In Paris. The lead in that musical is playing Harry Beaton.

Is that the same one who was such a good Will Parker in the Proms' version of Oklahoma!? He was great.

Annabelle is certainly entertaining!

Yes!  I think Larry needs to write a children's book called, "Annabelle's Adventures!"  WITH Illustrations! :D

I was thinking of that earlier today.  "Annabelle of 82nd street," and she'd talk about her apartment, her many activities, calls on the neighbors, and her slovenly maid, Me, who sleeps late, thinks the place is his, is always late with the food, the ice cream, her tuna treats, opening the blinds, fetching the fishie on a pole, etc.

And you can set it to music, a modified Cole Porter ditty.

When love beckoned on 82nd Street ...

I see my friend Robin de Jesus (he was still a student when I started doing musical stuff at the high school) has been cast as Emory in next year's Broadway production of The Boys in the Band.

Edit:  Can't get Photobucket to work, but here we are after I saw In the Heights.

He was fantastic in Camp, a movie I watch every year or so.

We went to an Italian place with a great array of happy hour specials, including ribs, pizzas, calamari, sausage and shrimp dishes, all for under $8 apiece. Feeling very well fed.

Then I went to my favorite ice cream parlor for a scoop of coffee and another of chocolate-Grand Marnier. Even happier.

Then a trip to Half Price Books for a few early Christmas presents and a Cole Porter set with a couple of songs I don't know.

Now I'm watching a thriller/noir/mystery called Plunder of the Sun with Glenn Ford. Neat stuff.

This one's for Vixmom, my fellow Lutheran:

My boss's daughter dressed as the 95 theses for Halloween/Reformation Day. Cool costume. Or, as I phrased it in a comment on Facebook: She nailed it.

Back from taking four bookcases to the new house, food, costume meeting, and rehearsal - we finished assembling the show and I must say I kind of blew my top tonight because no one remembered who did the set changes in act two when we'd set all that.  And they just stand around backstage playing around, on their phones, or whatever, instead of actually concentrating on the, you know, show.  I felt it was time to be strong and strong I was and then our leading man also said something because he was completely frustrated by it.  In my day, if anyone had done anything like that we'd have been tossed out of the department.

I miss the days we could easily post photos here, though I admit the quality rthrogh photobucket is better than the way I used to post them.
