Thursday morning greetings!  Quiet day here.  This evening is the red-carpet premiere of the Miami University-Middletown 50th anniversary video.  Remember when I participated in the recording sessions almost a year ago?  We'll see how much of me ended up on the cutting room floor...

I think my dreams of spending Friday and Saturday by the pool are hopeless.  Lotta predicted rain.  I hope the Sunday concert doesn't fall apart.

DR Elmore, I think the rain will be outta here by Sunday, but the ground might be pretty muddy.

Hope everyone is well.  School has started for me, so I'm MTTHF at school  Wednesday is my "day-off" as I don't really have a day off other than that.

Rehearsals began for Les Miserables - The School Edition on Monday and things are going very well.  I'm finding they lyrics are sloppy when sung with and AmURican accent, so we'll be working on our classical singing in the next few weeks. 

Tonight starts weekend 2/3 of The Hunchback of Notre Dame performances.  The orchestra is good, the cast sounds good, my MainStage programming is working well.  The book of this show really stinks.  That's all I'll say about that.

And that, DR's, is what's happening in the SF Bay Area this weekend.

A community theater group is doing Hunchback in a few weeks. I may try to catch it.

My sister in Germany is on WhatsApp. She doesn't do Facebook or email, so it's been strange sending her pix and exchanging messages this morning. Spellcheck wants to change all of my German into English.

Actually, DR Jane, I suspect it will be quite a bit.  I was "up front" for the sessions about the library and the performing arts space and my guess is that teaching faculty and students will predominate in the final cut.

I wish the 1999 German production was produced in the United States.  It was extravagant like the musicals of its time.  Rumor was that they didn't want to pay James Lapine to direct it in the states.  There are some videos on youtube and an amazing cast recording (in German).  The recent version that began in La Jolla and is the version that is licensed, seems to me to be a watered down version of what it could have been.  It was probably created to shut people up so now there is a license-able version of the show.  Same happened with Newsies although that had a more commercial run - and it wasn't meant to have one.

I have friends who use WhatsApp for communicating with family.  That is funny about the German.

Just had a nice phone conversation with DR Elmore, who's in Oxford today.  He's taking a break between a fruitful morning with his curator at the library and an afternoon with students in the theatre department.
