Just taking a hour break from sleeping.

Wore myself out and have been under the covers for 2 days, sleep is good.

Missing life, it's boring inside, sleeping.

I went online earlier to contact a book dealer in England that I hadn't spoken with in about three years, only to find he died late last year - very shocking, only forty-eight years old.  One of the nicest book dealers ever, I used to purchase from him quite regularly all during the 90s, and would have lovely visits with him at the book fairs he did in LA occasionally.  I'm sure Pogue will remember him - Nigel Williams.

Good morning, all! I had to be up early, so naturally my sleep was totally askew: too many nightmares of restless spirits, in old mansions and in my Aunt Jean's home on Hamilton-Mason Road. I don't know if it's due to Halloween or simply visits from the dead, but all of last night's dreams were ghostly and I got to little sleep.

In about 45 minutes I will call for a car service to help me tote too many scores for ROBERTA to a meeting, which will occupy most of my day. Yonight I have an important telephonic conversation with The Man from Philadelphia about 2012 recordings. I hope I'm awake for it.

More coffee!

I see that bandleader Edmundo Ros died on October 21st at the good age of 100. His Latin American music was hugely popular in the UK. I used to enjoy his music and have several of the recordings he did for Decca Phase 4. He used to appear regularly on BBC TV and had long running radio programmes. I'm not sure whether he had any popularity in the U.S.

DougR, you might want to illuminate the doofus on the HTF who has now said WSS didn't have an intermission at the Rivoli in NY - incorrect.  It had one there and it most certainly had one the entire time it played the Grauman's Chinese in LA - since Mr. Wise lived in LA he most certainly would have been aware of it (he also attended the LA premiere) and if he'd been so forceful about not wanting the intermission, I'm sure he would have had it removed.  The film played for over a year there - intermission every screening and it was the same in NY and every other roadshow engagement.  I'm sure what Mr. Wise is referring to is the general release version, where the intermission I'm sure was optional.

Well if you like Pirates and Pirate movies - especially of the 50's movie matinee kind.....you might like Pirates of the Golden Age - which is a 4 movie DVD set.

Against All Flags - with Errol Flynn (1952 style)
Buccaneer's Girl - with Miss Yvonne DeCarlo
Yankee Buccaneer - with Jeff Chandler and Scott Brady
Double Crossbones - with Donald O'Connor

All in color from Universal-International.  The O'Connor picture and the DeCarlo one have musical numbers.

My favorite and the reason I bought the set is Yankee Buccaneer which used to be on television a lot.....an American Navy ship is disguised as a pirate ship to capture the real pirates.....Scott Brady is David Farragut and Chandler is the ship's captain. 

Lots of fun....if you like Pirates who NOT Johnny Depp.

And it's less than $8 new at Amazon!

No.  There is not.

There's a crazy woman working on one of the Eubie Blake shows, but she's a sociologist with no performance, music, or music editing background, and it's a mess.

I'm back from my long long long Roberta meeting. The show is a mess! I'm crabby, very sleepy, and I have to have a long long telephic conversation about it tonight. Someone, shot me.

DR JRand61, great news about your friend Zach!

One of my interviewees (who was also at that western festival) informed me of such when I visited him during my vacation.

I was flattered to find this out... and if that old time actor had still looked like he did back in the 1950s....well  ;D

Well if you like Pirates and Pirate movies - especially of the 50's movie matinee kind.....you might like Pirates of the Golden Age - which is a 4 movie DVD set.

Against All Flags - with Errol Flynn (1952 style)
Buccaneer's Girl - with Miss Yvonne DeCarlo
Yankee Buccaneer - with Jeff Chandler and Scott Brady
Double Crossbones - with Donald O'Connor

All in color from Universal-International.  The O'Connor picture and the DeCarlo one have musical numbers.

My favorite and the reason I bought the set is Yankee Buccaneer which used to be on television a lot.....an American Navy ship is disguised as a pirate ship to capture the real pirates.....Scott Brady is David Farragut and Chandler is the ship's captain. 

Lots of fun....if you like Pirates who NOT Johnny Depp.

And it's less than $8 new at Amazon!


Personally, I prefer gladiator movies!

Is it necessary these days to have this blurb (or any variations) before a movie starts on DVD or Blu Ray? Some movies with just the movie with no extras have it.

THE FOLLOWING INTERVIEWS AND COMMENTARIES ARE FOR ENTERTAINMENT ONLY. THE VIEW AND OPINIONS EXPRESSED THEREIN ARE THOSE OF THE INDIVIDUAL SPEAKERS AND NOT NOT NECESDARYILY REPRESENT THE VIEWS AND OPINIONS OF __________(Fill in the company name) OR NY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILTES OR EMPLOYEES.

I just found this photo in my collection.  Naturally I didn't give it a title, but I think it must be Butchart Gardens.

DR JRand - WIT will be at the Samuel J. Friedman theatre, so it will be on Broadway. -This will be the Broadway premiere of the play.

Is WIT eligable to be nominated for BEST PLAY or does it have to be consider a revival even though this is the forst time on Broadway?

The language when a play was never on Bway is that it's a revival if it:
 
is deemed a "classic" or in the historical or popular repertoire

per last year's rule book at http://www.tonyawards.com/en_US/about/Rules-2010-2011FINAL.pdf

WIT may be seen as a revival under that language.

Oh, I fogot to mention that I discovered an old time western actor, who will remain nameless (except to JRand, who I already told), was (unbnownst to me) wanting to get into my knickers when I (and this old time western actor) were attending the Memphis Western festival a couple of years back.

One of my interviewees (who was also at that western festival) informed me of such when I visited him during my vacation.

I was flattered to find this out... and if that old time actor had still looked like he did back in the 1950s....well  ;D

Now why would he want to wear your clothes?

WIT (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wit_%28play%29)

is the name of the play. It was originally done Off-Broadway with the amazing Kathleen Chalfant.

MTC is Manhattan Theatre Club (http://www.mtc-nyc.org/)

They began in the 70s as an Off-Broadway regional theatre. One of their biggest hits was the original production of Ain't Misbehavin'. They now have a space on Broadway, the Samuel J. Friedman Theatre and space at City Center where they do the Off-Broadway work.

Since it, I believe, won the Pulitzer Prize I guess that it will fall under the category of revival.

Is that like the rights to that "Great Gatsby" musical that they recently did a reading of in New York? Just the score because the rights to the book were tied up.

Good Evening!

Well... We have our first orchestra rehearsal tomorrow! :)


*It's been interesting observing the staff during rehearsals. Maybe I'm a bit "jaded" from being in New York City and being a part of workshops and knowing how Encores! works, but it's been "fun" watching the "locals" starting to panic in regards to how relatively little time we have to put this show together. I was even praised today for being "the calm amidst the storm". I mean... The cast already knows their music - and they'll be using their books and music during the presentation, so... That's about 80% of the work right there. Still to come: four more days of staging rehearsal, eight hours of orchestra rehearsal, a sitzprobe, 20(!) hours of tech, and two full dress runs with the orchestra. All of that before we open next Friday for the five show run... Why wouldn't I be calm? :)

DR TCB - There was also quite a good tele-version of the play presented by HBO a couple of years ago starring Emma Thompson. *I just checked: it was first broadcast in 2001. -Wow! was it really 10 years ago?
