I set the alarm for 5:15 in my effort to get up earlier. It was complete failure. I turned off the alarm, cuddled with Thatch and Annabelle, cpould not get back to sleep, and got up at 6:15. Thatch played Floyd Collins in caverns he discovered in the bedclothes.

BK, did you know that David Amram wrote an opera, Twelfth Night,  to a libretto by Joseph Papp from Shakespeare's comedy? I believe he wrote it for Marcia Baldwin, who might have been one of his three wives. She played Viola in the Lake George Premiere. I've always wanted to hear this opera, but I don't recall ever running across any bootlegs.

Today is the 10th anniversary of Mary Rodgers' death. I saw her rarely, but I truly adored her.

When I reconstructed Dearest Enemy in 2002 for the Richard Rodgers centenary, I needed a 5-minute musical interlude between Act Two and the Epilogue. I remembered that Mary had once told me that she loved the song "Bye and Bye" from the show, so I based the interlude on it. I will mourn her today as I mourned Peter Foley yesterday.

Slept very well.  Had strange dream.  Nothing special about it other than I was sitting at the first table in front of a guest speaker and had notes spread out and was really into it when the moderator approached me and asked me to move.  He said I was distracting everyone by my note-taking. 

I was rather put out by that and took my time gathering my things together.

A Wednesday question for BK. It has two parts.

1.  In the notes you say:  instead I had bacon and eggs, and it was fine and ten bucks cheaper than Art’s or Hugo’s. Well, I don't know Hugo's, but I do know Art's is a supreme ripoff when it comes to the more ordinary foodstuffs. I also know -- or knew -- my L.A., and I know my bacon and eggs. So...how in the [expletive] much does bacon and eggs cost in the Valley in the Year of Our Lord 2024, anyway??

2.  I know the great ones I knew and loved are gone, but surely the tradition lives on? I refer to the ubiquitous Southern California coffee shop. Are there none that you would drop into for such things as bacon and eggs? I know the deli-served ones can be a little nicer. But other than actual fast food, what is the present state of informal, casual eating around there? I'm kind of afraid to hear the answer. :)

In truth, I probably haven't gone out for a sit-down eggs breakfast since, oh, maybe before the pandemic. So I can't even tell you now what the average NY/NJ/New England diner prices are now. Vixmom can probably speak to that. And hell, I haven't even had a Denny's or IHOP breakfast in that long. Maybe it's about damned time I went out and treated myself.

Skip went to the concert last year.  He said it was exceptional!

Peter was the pianist when I presented one of my shows before a panel at a workshop.  The night that the teaching panel was Stephen Sondheim and Stephen Schwartz, Peter knew beforehand that Sondheim would be there that night. (Peter and Sondheim already went way back at that point.)  Peter impishly asked me before rehearsal that day "Are you sure you want to know who's on your panel tonight?" - so that made it clear that Sondheim was going to be opining that night.

Watching The Trial. Very good Anthony Perkins. Jeanne Moreau is very different from how she appears in Querelle.

Just so she doesn't sing!

She sang in Querelle, doing a grotesque Marlene Dietrich impersonation.

I know I was late seeing The Trial, but the only theatrical showing I can positively name was during a Welles festival at USC in 1981. There might well have been an earlier one at some revival house, but I believe this was also my one time seeing Welles in person.

Which brings us to a nice easter egg on the Criterion release. They included something I was thrilled to find existed:  the film that was taken of his generous hour-and-twenty-minute long Q&A session after the movie that night. I had completely forgotten there had been a small crew there filming it. I had also mis-remembered where I sat that particular evening, so it took me a lot of slo-moing and freeze-framing, but I finally found myself in the audience. I also had to go through pictures from around that time to prove, even to myself, that that guy is, in fact, moi. It's too bad the film ends before Welles gets up to leave, because I would have been visible walking up the aisle almost alongside of him, along with the few in his entourage, just enjoying the proximity for one brief shining moment.

But I positively loved the movie, regardless of Welles being there. I read the Kafka novel right after that event, and loved it, too.

I really like The Trial - saw it when it came out at the Lido Theater - had never seen anything like it - and I loved the music - Albinoni's Adagio and all the other music. Issuing the soundtrack on Kritzerland was such a treat - if somehow anyone missed it, we still have some.

I ended up respecting it more than liking it. I think it's more the source material than anything. But what visuals. And what aurals, as it were. The scene where Perkins is n the run is amazing.

It's welcome second tier Hitchcock, certainly better than a lot out there. I like this one more each time I watch it, and this, I think, is my fourth time.

Oh, I don't think I mentioned this, but one VHS tape that I found while deciding which VHS tapes to keep was The Time of Your Life by William Saroyan, starring Kevin Kline and Patti LuPone that was recorded in the 1970s.

That was a purchased VHS tape but I was able to record it onto my DVD burner, so I can make my own DVD of it. :)

I knew that she was in the original production, but for some reason, wasn't able to make the original cast recording (https://castalbums.org/recordings/Song-of-Singapore-1992-Original-Cast-Members/936/).

Even though the video is 12 years old, this is the first time that I even knew that it existed and was online!
