Four!

Carmen the ballet was interesting. Canned music, but well recorded.

The Carmen, Don Jose and Micaela were all excellent.

The Escamillo was a little too flamboyant to be believable as a love of Carmen's.

Every time I hear the Bizet score, I think of Gilligan's Island and their musical version of Hamlet.

I think the best part of the evening was the approach to the romance. Good girl Micaela lets Don Jose lead her in their pas de deux, following him submissively through each step. When Carmen dances with Don Jose, she's in charge. She never makes a move that she doesn't want to or direct. And it ends with them horizontal on the floor with her on top. Very suggestive and very right. Don Jose has never had a woman like her, and he's smitten.

What is this page four malarky? Or is malarkey?

Or is it both?

Too many errant and truant, I'll tell you THAT.

Listening to music. New master sounds excellent, and I did the inlay card info so all that remains are the liner notes.

I forgot that I must be up early tomorrow to do a musical theatre workshop at the Group Rep. Come June, they asked me to put together a fund raiser cabaret in my style, using mostly the members but I will bring in a couple of our people, too.

Did I mention I had the talk with the helper - he tells me we're now on the same page and that there won't be any repeats of issues that have been cropping up too often lately.

If you mentioned it I missed it. I hope he really is on the same page and that all will be good going forward.

Good evening.

Page 4? Really?

TCB · « **Reply #106 on:** February 15, 2019, 11:32:03 PM »

Where is everyone?

Tonight I have been watching 20/20.

”Tacoma Boy Makes Good!!”

”The Ted Bundy Story”

TCB · « **Reply #110 on:** February 15, 2019, 11:36:00 PM »

It has been 30 years since he was executed.

TCB · « **Reply #111 on:** February 15, 2019, 11:37:11 PM »

That anniversary and a new Zac Enron film has sparked a renewed interest.

TCB · « **Reply #112 on:** February 15, 2019, 11:37:50 PM »

I heard nothing that I didn’t already know.

And on that note (F#), I'm outta here. I'm off to the theater to usher for The Wedding Singer.

Be back later!

Well, I'm home and fed.

Hi, Tom.

George · « **Reply #115 on:** February 15, 2019, 11:41:05 PM »

Tonight's opening night of The Wedding Singer went quite well!

TCB · « **Reply #116 on:** February 15, 2019, 11:41:30 PM »

And then in the local newscast that followed, they said Ted graduated from Tyee High School. Huh? He was a proud graduate of Wilson High School, class of 1965.

He sat behind my sister in homeroom for three years. And she is alive to talk about it.

Hi, George.

The original female lead had enough of her voice back to perform quite well tonight.
