I suspect Elmore will be familiar with this series  the CD , produced by Acorn Media , the BBC series is from  1982 .  They contain the full libretto in a full colour  5 X 7 booklet with print in a font size  even these bat blind eyes can read without straining

Whatever will Johnny Depp play in that?

Actually, don't tell me.  I'm fine without knowing.

A pink elephant on parade?

Were they filmed in an Australian opera house?

I don't have the others nearby (too lazy to get up and check)  but  The Mikado says on;y that it features  the London Symphony Orchestra  and the Ambrosian Opera Chorus.  I suspect they were produced on a BBC  soundstage

Sounds like fun, Vixmom. I'll bring the popcorn and some vino. Time for a viewing party.

But first, some bed time.

Good night, all.

Well, the good news I had hoped to have this week is a bust. I appreciate your vibes, though!


Much as I find the work I am doing now fulfilling, it is funded by state grants, so never a sure or steady thing. A posting came up recently for what would have been a dream job for me. I went through several rounds of interviews, and it finally came down to me and one other candidate. This afternoon, I learned that the job has been offered to the other candidate. I am very disappointed, but it was still a good experience to go through. I hate selling myself, but I guess it is good to have to learn how to do that under pressure every now and then.


I am sorry about the job, SingSong.  Believe me, your dream job is still out there.

Chas, Zorba was next in line for remixing - the LP and CD are horridly mixed.  But my guy left and it became impossible.  Thank heavens Follies happened when it did.

Yeah, but the whereabouts of the account are a secret to you, too.

I am glad that some of you enjoyed the story of Jeff Smith.  The other details are a little too sordid for this site, and it really isn't my story to tell.

Kevin, didn't you love the Vegas version of PHANTOM?  I don't mean just the hunk playing the Phantom, but the entire production.  I wished I had seen it more than once.  Also, I wish there was a DVD of the show (for educational purposes only).  I am sure I could learn a lot from seeing that DVD!

Went to Gelson's and got a little rice and peas and a tiny bit of mac-and-cheese.
