My condolences, DR elmore3003.  I only hope that your work was not lost.  Painful as it is, the equipment can be replaced.

Oh elmore.  How much information was stolen?  When do you move?

Stay calm vibes!

I'm actually quite fine.  I'm glad I wasn't there alone when the breakin occurred, which appears to be Saturday night or at some point yesterday.

I believe it was all the filled packing cartons that saved us from losing the sound system and other things. I believe the packing chips all over the fllor were the result of the thieves opening a carton to find it contained not a set of speakers but a full score to BABES IN TOYLAND and so they only took what they could grab quickly rather than open the 25-40 sealed cartons.

Dear DR's---please send every spare vibe and prayer you can to my editor friend Travis (he's working on SAVING GRACE, which TNT is going to launch in a few weeks). His mother has disappeared and it doesn't look good; foulplay is suspected. He didn't come to work today and now his producers know why:

I believe that vibes will help, whatever the outcome. Thank you from us TNT folks who are shocked and hurting for him right now.

Perhaps because I was in the business for a long time, I'm one of those people who strongly dislike entrance applause. I don't care who walks on stage. I'm a HUGE fan of Angela Lansbury but, unlike more than half the audience, I did not applaud at Deuce when the lights came up on her and Marian Seldes. It sounds smug to say that but I just think, as some people say in the article, that it takes away from the show.

Just spoke to a general manager who I really liked, and who thinks he might be able to do our show - BUTT - he certainly isn't cheap and I don't know how his fee fits into the scheme of not being able to spend over 15K (the actors are above that figure).  It's headache inducing, but he'll present me with a proposal tomorrow.   Then he would deal with everything - NYMF paperwork and rules, budget, theatre coordination, etc.  It's all these little things like supplying a light board operator and a sound board operator and a run crew, etc. (thankfully, all set moving is done by the actors in the show).  I gotta tell you.

DR Elmore, that just SUCKS!!! I hope you have information and projects backed up.

My house has been burglarized 4 times and it's such a pain in the a$$. Even with insurance, sometimes it takes months before you discover everything that's missing, and by then you've already made a settlement. What an awful way to start out the week after such a nice weekend!

Ben I always wonder, while a nice compliment, if the applause distracts the actor.

At the final performance of A Light in the Piazza, the entrance applause started for Victoria Clark when she first became visible to the audience and only died down after she had started to sing...which was probably more than a full minute.  Granted, special circumstances, with the audience wanting to show their support for her and for the show, but still...    :-\

I do understand and respect that point of view but so many times the applause stops a line or a piece of business that I want to see or hear. It's a puzzlement. It's certainly good to be recognized and appreciated for your work but to me it's more of the theatre in your living room kind of behavior.

Just my 2 cents on the subject.

I really dislike it when everyone is applauding and I don't know why they're applauding. I think that happened in CURTAINS when one of the actresses made her entrance. I didn't know who she was so I felt out of the loop. One more reason not to like it!

THESE ARE THE DAMNED - which MR BK was discussing last month or so, is on TCM tonight.

I have finally figured out how to tape from my HD TV.....so I will be making a sad sorry excuse of a video tape of said film.

No one applauded for Mickey Dolenz when he came out as the father of Rademes in AIDA.....I don't think anyone else recognized him....I started to....but it can be very lonely being the only one....in that BIG theatre....to welcome a Monkee to Indianapolis.
