I've been coughing a little, too.

Not really, but I'm feeling so left out.

Do you know which part he plays?  I don't really know all of the actors.

Oh now, Fred, Chalka Khan wasn't even born during your single years!


TCB, I think you're confusing Chaka Khan with famed Olympic skater Sasha Cohen, probably because some people used to sing Sasha Cohen's name to the "Chaka Khan" song.  It's a very logical mistake, TCB.

Chaka Khan is actually about seven years older than me.

No, I just saw his picture in the cast photo with Alec Clayton's review.

Me too, just kidding.  Nobody ever really actually confused Chaka with the much much younger (and Jewish) Sasha - although they really did sing Sasha's name to Chaka's song.



Saw Chaka Khan headlining in Vegas at the Venetian in a show that Billy Porter created and directed.  It felt very very promising, and I see the show is still in Billy Porter's bio, but it never went on from there.  Just a reminder that so many shows are developed that look really good and look really entertaining, but sometimes the process just stops.  I'm so glad to have seen it, and I'd wondered why it never went on.

Just coming off a torrid two-week love affair with the "Scarlet Pimpernel" score(s). Any fans of this show here?
I think "Storybook" may be the one Frank Wildhorn song I like.

I'm with you, DR John G! I think a law should be passed forbidding Frank Wildhorn, who has a propensity for vomiting second-rate music and lyrics,  near a Broadway theatre. I had to sit through the PIMPERNEL so Mr Wildhorn owes me big.

And I am home from Toyland! The office no longer looks as though the movers found an empty space and tossed into it as much junk as they could.  Skip Kennon came in and did a fantastic job of organizing a lot of books, and I worked on getting the working office into shape. When Curtis arrived, we dealt with moving too much sound equipment - McGlinn had tons! - and organizing the various rooms in the suite. Things are looking good.

Every muscle aches.

Here is the latest member of our family....Rose.

She was abandoned in the trailer park where my brother Kent's stepdaughter lives.  She brought him to Kent, and Kent brought her to our house yesterday.

She goes to the vet on Wednesday for a look see.  She is very well behaved, likes to sleep in rooms where people are sitting down or lying in bed.....is housetrained.....and doesn't bark very often.....



I am so glad you got a new doggie, JRand! I still miss seeing snaps of Miss Blue Moon (wait...was that her name?)

Matthew -

Weeeeelllllll, in theater, isn't everything sort of fluid.  remember that NEWSIES was supposedly to be a quick Broadway run for a few months just as a platform before they sent it out to the world for licensing? 

Well, that's what they were telling everybody at the time... but who knows what they were saying behind closed doors  :)

BK - Spoke to some friends today who saw the East Coast singer's D.C. production of HAMLET (I had told them about it) and they absolutely loved it.   They thanked me profusely for recommending it.

It is very funny and sweet.
