Title: Re: 107% AND AT THE BALLET
Post by: elmore3003 on March 27, 2021, 03:53:28 AM: 3:00 seems to be the time of night when things happen in the apartment: I need a bathroom break, Stella begins her torment, and not long after, Annabelle climbs down from the bookcases to get warm. Thatch is the only one who does not pester me; he seems content to just sleep next to me.

Title: Re: 107% AND AT THE BALLET
Post by: elmore3003 on March 27, 2021, 03:57:46 AM: Speaking of kitty cleanup, DR slingshot, I loved the kitty litter disaster. Annabelle might be smart enough to pull the victim act, but Stella would simply walk away from the disaster she's created, as she does on a regular basis. Thatch is so fastidious in his grooming that he would never allow that to happen.
Title: Re: 107% AND AT THE BALLET
Post by: elmore3003 on March 27, 2021, 04:07:12 AM: DR ChasSmith, Mirette was in summer 1998 at Goodspeed. It's a lovely score that needed a lot of work on the book, and the book writer seemed lost at Goodspeed. I ran into jher at the bakery one morning and asked her how she was enjoying East Haddam. She said she was bored, and I was tempted to ask, why don't you fix your script? The director, the late not-so-great Andre Ernotte, treated Tom and Harvey very badly, and they behaved like perfect gentlemen to his nasty taunts. He was quite ugly, and - I suspect - jealous of their success.

At the first band rehearsal, I still didn't know if we would have a harpist, and Dan DeLange, the assistant conductor, played the part on a synth. I think Harvey may have been the person who suggested and negotiated the alternating harpists.

And, yes, you can tell the story.

Post by: elmore3003 on March 27, 2021, 05:58:40 AM: BK, Benjamin Britten composed one full-length ballet for choreographer John Cranko and the Royal Ballet around 1957. It was not a success. Kenneth Macmillan - I think you liked his Romeo and Juliet - created his own version of the ballet. You might enjoy it.

The editor, of course, is THE Dave Strohmaier, who's restored all the Cinerama films.

He's here, he's there, he's everywhere!

Back in '74, I was in Bennett's (I think that's the name) movie stills and other stuff store - the one on the north side of the Boulevard near the Snow White Cafe - and I bought a photocopy an early version of the script for The Exorcist. That was the kind of thing we did back then.

Forty-some years later I pulled it off the shelf and glanced through it. There, at the top of the cover page, is the handwritten name "Strohmaier", and on the next page, "Workshop Copy". By then I knew him from his presence on Home Theater Forum, and I asked him if that would have actually been his. He said yes, a number of such things would have passed through his hands when he had some job at Warner Bros.

So that's three sets out of five, gone. Good deal.

Yesterday I looked through my scores again and found I could actually use one each of the other two sets, but going for all of that is a bit more than I can justify.

This relationship-centric Libra lunation encourages you to take a good look at the most important partnerships in your life and examine whether or not they are meeting your expectations—and if they’re not, what can you do to make sure they do? The Libra moon is excellent at helping us come up with compromises for relationships that still have life, and also helping us realize if maybe it’s time to sever ties all together with someone who doesn’t measure up anymore.

Post by: John G. on March 27, 2021, 09:25:42 PM: For a Queen tribute band, it was odd that the encore consisted of two Led Zepplin songs and "Don't You Forget About Me," which was Tears for Fears, if I recall correctly.

Oh, and the lead singer used the occasion to propose to his girlfriend. It was sweet.
