I've begun The King's Assassin, a biography of George Villiers, the Duke of Buckingham, who rose to power as the lover of King James I. In Dumas' The Three Musketeers, he is the over-wrought love of Queen Anne, whose diamond studs cause all the fuss before he is assassinated through the intrigues of Cardinal Richelieu and Milady de Winter. The biography is most interesting but the print is very small.

Gretchen Cryer who wrote a musical with a similar name was married to David Cryer....they met while they were students at DePauw University.

Their son is Jon Cryer.

When David and his now wife - they met while doing a Broadway show with Ray Bolger - David told the story of when he was given an award at DePauw.  He opened his acceptance speech by telling the audience how nervous he was because his first wife and his new wife were sitting side by side in the audience.

Back in 2012 I did THE CRUCIBLE with David and his wife Britt Swanson at DePauw.....they were such fun.  He had just left the Broadway production of PHANTOM OF THE OPERA he had played one of the owners of the opera house on the road and on Broadway for many years.....

Britt told the story that when they were doing Come Summer with Mr. Bolger, Britt who was a featured dancer was backstage and stepped back to let someone pass - and stepped on Ray Bolger's foot.  He laughed and said "Baby, watch that million dollar instep....it's money in the bank."

Britt also said that Ray would NEVER say a negative thing about anyone or anybody.  If there was something he didn't like, he sent his wife Gwen to the producers to complain for him.  So everyone loved him and hated her.....

Britt said they got great reviews on the road but when they got into NYC - it was a disaster.  And everybody blamed everybody else.  She said it was the only show she ever did that somebody blamed the backdrops for its failure......

I was friendly with Gretchen while I was working at Barnes & Noble, 1998-2004. I believe she relocated then to Los Angeles to be close to her son. I liked her very much. I saw her in the Martha Jefferson role in 1776, August 1969.

Packed most of my suitcase, so I can leave when the time comes.

When my dad's health became terminal in 2006, I took my suit home on one of my visits and left it at Randy's home so I would not need to worry about it if/when the time came.

Well, the project is on. Jason Buell, with whom I worked on the Loesser restorations of Guys & Dolls and How to Succeed in Business . . ., works with the Jule Styne estate. He, Joshie, and I are going to restore Gypsy, slogging through all the materials that exist, from original full scores, national tour parts, amateur-stock parts, and several revivals.

Finishing up a dystopian novel called Lark Ascending. It’s by a Kentuckian named Silas House. It’s fairly interesting. The Fundies (fundamentalists) have taken over America sfter climate change has made it unlivable. The main character escapes to Ireland, which has just stopped taking in immigrants. Lark wants to survive. He meets a dog snd a mother figure. Together they hit the road for a supposedly better place.

Hmmm, did you like it?

Yes. It rang a little too true.

Hmm, not sure then that I want to read it.  Still, I marked it at my library to notify me if they get it in.

For any of you Expanse fans (like me), the author(s) has(have) written a new book that's the beginning of a whole new series!

Review: The Mercy of Gods begins a bold new saga from The Expanse author James S.A. Corey (https://winteriscoming.net/posts/review-the-mercy-of-gods-begins-a-bold-new-saga-from-the-expanse-author-james-s-a-corey-01j3783fbhrg)

The authors of The Expanse are at it again, with a brand new science fiction novel that's the start of an imaginative alien epic.

An unexpected Trump/Vance sign has appeared across the street.....

Sorry.  I'm sure many of our neighbors are voting for them, however, signs aren't permitted here.

Likewise in our community - on both counts  ::)

At least you don't have to look at signs.  Do they fly American flags? 

Yes, and one house has an Israeli flag.

Best deal - Diet Coke 12-pack - 9.98 each - same as Gelson's - UNLESS you buy three - then it's 14.99 for three - savings of almost sixteen bucks.

That's a good deal!

I just turned off the TV.

Tonight's finale of the DNC Convention was just amazing.

I thought Adam Kinzinger was a fantastic speaker and a Republican which chutzpah and brass.

And Kamala brought down the house.  She was fantastic.  Kinzinger put Trump outside the borders of mainstream Republicans and Harris pushed Trump into the gutter!  They didn't do it with name-calling and ugliness. There was truth being spoken and references all Americans know to be true because we SAW IT happen.

Today was very temperate here in my little portion of South Carolina.  By noon, it was only 74 degrees.  I think it may have gone as high as 84, but there were nice breezes all day.

This time two nights ago, it was 85 degrees.  Right now, it's 64.

Well, the project is on. Jason Buell, with whom I worked on the Loesser restorations of Guys & Dolls and How to Succeed in Business . . ., works with the Jule Styne estate. He, Joshie, and I are going to restore Gypsy, slogging through all the materials that exist, from original full scores, national tour parts, amateur-stock parts, and several revivals.

Awesome news, Larry.  Sounds exciting!!

Clinton made a tenor joke in his speech last night. I do miss having a musician in the White House. But apparently Harris's favorite cookbook authors are a good match for ours - Hazan and Waters - so that's encouraging.
