The only professional production of Hello, Dolly! that I've seen was almost exactly 10 years ago (doing a search here on HHW, I actually saw it on March 10, 2009) when I saw Jenifer Lewis as Dolly at the 5th Avenue Theatre in Seattle.  She was a hoot and it was a great production.

I saw Ginger Rogers in Dolly in Madison in the 60s.  A couple of days later a friend who was in the Air Force said quite casually, "My friend Si was in town, and we went out to dinner with Ginger.  They're old friends."  Grrr!

Weather forecasts for tomorrow are all over the place, as far as what mix and how much precip there will be. None of it sounds particularly conducive for us getting into the city to see Merrily. Or for getting home without difficulty. Trains are out of the question due to everyone's schedule. At least I'm not the one doing the driving, although I do have to get to the other person's house and back. Oy!

I have seen Channing in other stage productions (e.g. LORELI and a co-appearance with George Burns)

We are expecting a bad snowstorm Tuesday night/Wednesday. Right now it shows 20-30cms on Tuesday night and another 10-15 cms on Wednesday (1 inch is 2.5 cms). I wonder if they would even consider closing the schools for that.

Just so you know:

 Since January 23rd, Mercury has been zipping through the sign of Aquarius, giving us lightning bolt insights about, well… everything. If you’ve noticed your mind has been all over the place while your computer has a million tabs open and you’re constantly in your head thinking, researching, and endlessly craving mental stimulation, these days are about to come to an end. Although the Sun is still in Aquarius until the 18th, Mercury, ruler of our mind, is already moving on into the next sign. With Mercury in Pisces, there is more of an essence of getting lost in daydreams as well as thinking and talking about emotions and feelings as well as spiritual healing as we speak our words with greater compassion and sensitivity for others for the next few weeks.

So, I'm watching the seventh episode of Manifest, and I just realized that the main character's name is Benjamin Stone.  That can't be a coinkydink (even though no other character is named after a character in Follies).

The Fosse/Verdon eight episode mini-series starts in April.  It stars Sam Rockwell and Michelle Williams.

I'd like to see that. Michelle Williams is an interesting actress. She was the only thing I liked in The Greatest Showman, and her dancing was excellent.

I began reading "The Hate U Give" and am enjoying it.  As suspected I doubt it will be awhile before I want to see the movie.  I do want to know what others think of it if the watch it.

Started another one of my library movies instead. An old 1950s movie about Luther that they used to show us in school and at church every year. I don't remember much of it, though, except the cinematography is excellent. The shadows are great.

No tries on my Cross Works riddles? Sigh!  Perhaps the rules of the game aren't clear.  I'll give you one.

Who starred in My Fair Ark?
Rex [Harrison] Ford

Capisc'?  The other two should be clear now, and btb (by the bye in Internet slang) they form a longer chain, which is a whole nother kettle of mahi-mahi.

Who wrote The Golden Wake?

Who wrote Finnigan's Trees?


I feel stupid. I just now got it.

Henry James Joyce and James Joyce Kilmer.

It's been a very trying Monday.

We are, now, NOT going to see Merrily tomorrow. The weather forecasts are dire enough to keep reasonable people like ourselves off the roads completely. Happily, the person who got us the tickets says there's a process or two by which we can still use them, so they shan't be wasted and we'll get there later, hopefully in this very week.

We have a plumber coming at 8:00 tomorrow to replace our on/off water valve.  Not only will he have to shut off our water but the water to the 2 units above us. 

Too many of these valves in the buildings have broken and done damage so everyone is required to replace them.  For some strange reason some portion of this was installed behind the dry wall.  ::)
