Last night, I ushered for the national tour of STOMP. It was practically a completely sold out house! And it was fantastic. It was just the eight performers percussing, but it was so inventive and exciting. A great show to see...especially for free! :D

Was it the same show you saw on Broadway?
Did you buy the DVD?

Ever thought of bringing your files on an USB drive to Staples and having them print out from that so that way you don't have to print a copy for them print from and you wouldn't have to rush back home to print missing pages?
We would have to win the state competition first. Flying would probably be easier, but I imagine we would drive.
DR Ginny, has anyone addressed the possibility that this new presidential Christian right administration may encourage banning books?
Best wishes on the project, Elmore.
If I'd been here earlier I'd have told RonPulliam to cough. A lot.
Today, the MD for a show I orchestrated in 2002 for the New York State Theatre Institute asked me to score a show he's doing for NYMF this summer. I like the premise, and it sounds funny, so I look forward to seeing the score and reading the script before I say yes.
Back from a really fun lunch and then picking up the spiral-bound copies of the new book for Muse Margaret and me, and then no packages.

SINGING pirates!!
They had some 90 people in the jury pool. A group of 60 was called, and I was not among them.(https://img.clipartfest.com/9336011ee6a5dd31059f2b840704aa46_jumping-for-joy-clip-art-clipart-jump-for-joy_361-400.jpeg)

And I am home form Rob's birthday celebration. there were seven of us, and it was a festive group. I love the food at Cafe Frida, ad I am quite tipsy from two margaritas.
I'm glad I got an autographed copy of Kay Cole's CD. Here's an image of the booklet in the jewel case. The staples didn't quite make it to the fold:

I can tell you my comments. "Eh." This year's "it" film. If I want to watch a Jacques Demy film I'll watch a Jacques Demy film. It was certainly well done, but I cared not a whit about any of the characters.
From DR TCB:QuoteWe would have to win the state competition first. Flying would probably be easier, but I imagine we would drive.
No wonder I didn't realize you were going to Idaho as you need to stay in Washington first, then you will go to Idaho.
Where in Washington is the competition?
How many slots are there for Best Picture?
TCB, drop him a note - it's very bad when you put your trust in someone and ask them to do something that is important to you and they sit on it. If he's busy and hasn't had a chance to get to it, he needs to tell you that. But really be sure you trust his judgment before making any changes. I am the luckiest man on Earth with Muse Margaret because she knows me inside out and she just unerringly knows when something doesn't feel right - she's sometimes inarticulate about it, but if she feels something isn't right we hash it out until we figure out the WHY of that. But I will say on my first book, it was nothing but encouragement and I think the only thing I ever got from her was asking for more clothing description a couple of times. This is your first and it's very critical that you TRUST this guy's artistic judgment and to always present anything in a positive manner.

Thanks, BK, I will drop him a note in the morning. Good advice.
