The show was a bit long at  3 hours 30 minutes (including a 2 minute intermission so really 3 hours 10 minutes) I cannot imagine how they sustained the original that was done in two parts.

People appearing and disappearing, being sucked in bookcases and tiny slots in telephone booths, transforming into different characters, the entire theatre appearing to blur and waver several times. 

Well done to the effects people

To me the only false note was the guy playing one of the lead kids, Scorpious Malloy, Draco’s son ( I say as if you are all familiar with the HP universe) who was one of the leads.  I thought his performance too camp, and found it distracting.

Tonight is opening night.  Finally.

Last night I did some investigation.  I thought the Y U G E cash register used in the bakery was attached to the counter we were using.  I finally found out it wasn't - so I sent it to theeder purgatory.

It was blocking action on the SL and SR sides.....I am now on the hunt for a small electric adding machine to use in the bakery instead.  We shall see.....  Right now there is a basket of "bread" on the counter.

Back, with eyes that are fine.

But man, are they dilated. When I was leaving they asked me if I needed sunglasses, and I cavalierly said no, I've got mine in the car. Hah! It had been overcast and foggy earlier, but while I was in there the sun had come out, and I nearly had to hold my hand over my eyes just to walk to the car! I don't remember ever being so affected by that. So I'll stay in for a while and then I must run a couple of errands.

My first ever earthquake was a routine little one in 1972 while I was on the mezzanine in Pickwick Books. Just an average little shaker. I was very proud to have finally experienced one.  :)

The biggest I felt during my years living in L.A. was the Whittier 5.7 in 1987. I was showering for work and and the shower walls suddenly flexed. When I got out and looked out to where I could just see the pool, there were li'l waves. When I got to work (in the Earthquake buildings on Wilshire, across from the Wiltern) one of our file cabinets was knocked over.

A few years earlier I was up in Bakersfield standing at our table in a trade show when the Coalinga earthquake happened. Wiki says that was a 6.2, and I can tell you it was a real shaker/roller. That was my only one in the Central Valley.

The only earthquake I can remember having been in was in upstate New York about 30 years ago. I was taking a nap (go figure) and I was awakened by the bed leaving off the floor. I had no idea what happened until I saw news of an earthquake being reported.

By the way, DR vixmom --

You recently posted a BJ's price that suddenly seemed much lower than ours. Do you have the BJ's card, or whatever it is that gets you the extra discount? Up here it's 15 cents per gallon less than the posted amount which is what I pay.

Today in a meeting, I learned about flamingos (don't ask).

I learned that they stand on one leg to conserve energy and to help maintain their body temperature. Their chicks are born gray and turn pink from their mother's milk. Flamingo mothers lose their pink color as they raise their chicks, but regain it once the chicks become independent. A group of flamingos is called a flamboyance.

Back, with eyes that are fine.

But man, are they dilated. When I was leaving they asked me if I needed sunglasses, and I cavalierly said no, I've got mine in the car. Hah! It had been overcast and foggy earlier, but while I was in there the sun had come out, and I nearly had to hold my hand over my eyes just to walk to the car! I don't remember ever being so affected by that. So I'll stay in for a while and then I must run a couple of errands.

I hope you at least had sunglasses in you car! 8)

Opening night went well.....everyone was on their mettle and their nettle.

We had 100 folks in the audience and only 3 left at intermission.

There were lots of tears at the end....and a few folks stood up.  And lots of good comments as folks passed me in the lobby on the way out....

Act One was 1 hour and five minutes and Act Two was One Hour and two minutes.  I'll take it.....especially since last week each act ran over 80 minutes!

The stage crew and light and sound crews were spot on....the show is continuous with only a couple of blackouts in each act....mostly lights cross fade to the new location and on we go....

Twenty five locations in the first act and 18 locations in the second act......I don't list them all in the program - I was afraid it would scare the audience!

Watching a Norwegian indy flick that's like an American indy from the 70s only more up to date sensibilities. Think a gay Norma Rae at a Norwegian salmon factory.

What's it called, John?  I never miss a gay Norma Rae at a Norwegian salmon factory movie.

Opening night went well.....everyone was on their mettle and their nettle.

We had 100 folks in the audience and only 3 left at intermission.

There were lots of tears at the end....and a few folks stood up.  And lots of good comments as folks passed me in the lobby on the way out....

Act One was 1 hour and five minutes and Act Two was One Hour and two minutes.  I'll take it.....especially since last week each act ran over 80 minutes!

The stage crew and light and sound crews were spot on....the show is continuous with only a couple of blackouts in each act....mostly lights cross fade to the new location and on we go....

Twenty five locations in the first act and 18 locations in the second act......I don't list them all in the program - I was afraid it would scare the audience!

Sounds great, DR Jrand74 - congratulations! Yes, that was a good idea not to list 43 locations in the program.
