Well, the local Borders was sold out of the soundtrack to Once.

But, I discovered, quite accidentally, that there's a MAGGIE MOO's within a mile from my office building!  

[singdaw]

I can still shock!

Shock and awe, baby!!

 

[DERBRUCER]

And I was amused to read that some rather scientific minds were intrigued by the show (Buffy).

Woody got this certified scientific mind totally hooked!
(And the addiction cost me seven box sets!)

Started off liking Angel, but then lost interest, not sure why.

Ah, but the dividing line between "scientifically certified" and just plain "certified" is so very thin!

DR Danise may not make a trip to New York anytime soon if she reads this, she may end up in London

Matthew McConaughey shirtless?  That's sooooo two.. three.. four years ago.

Well, that is Ok by me, because as you know I am way behind the times!

[MBarnum]

You bet cha! Old ladies like to look at good-looking shirtless guys with six-packs, too!

You had a six pack with you while you were looking at the magazine?

[singdaw]

You had a six pack with you while you were looking at the magazine?

Don't worry, DR MBarnum...you won't be left out.  Your fire escape landing will come equipped with same.

Nope. No reading materials.  It's a no-frills fire escape.

Ah yes, my razor blade of life.

Alert the Gideons!

Alert the Gideons!

Like in Greenwillow, when Dorrie Whitbred alerts "Gideon Briggs I LOVE you, LOOOOOOOVE you. There it is, plain as daylight..."

[MBarnum]

I have absolutely no desire to work today.

[MBarnum]

Jose and Rodzinski, lets all go to see ONCE and have dinner and cry like 3 saps.

[singdaw]

Ah yes, my razor blade of life.

Occams' razor?

Or DR JRand56's rusty spade?

[Ron Pulliam]

Well, that is Ok by me, because as you know I am way behind the times!

Ohhh...I that it was the more years "ago" it was, the better!

My "old" theatre group has a new west coast premiere:

FIVE COURSE LOVE

ICT's new comedy stirs together three actors, five meals, lots of songs and mismatched lovers to bring out the fun

...
Or you could just head over to "Five Course Love," the Southern California premiere of one of off-Broadway's funniest and fastest musicals, and get entertained (if not fed) in five New York eateries in the space of an hour and a half.

"Five Course Love," with book, music and lyrics by Gregg Coffin, opens a month-long run in a production by International City Theatre at the Center Theater of the Long Beach Performing Arts Center. The funny, richly musical work is about love, not food, but it certainly could help you decide where to dine after the performance.

Directed by carin desai, "Five Course Love" takes a look at the humorous complexities of love in five scenes, using three actors, Perry Lambert, Jennifer Shelton and Christopher Carothers, a band and a score of more than generous proportions.

Shelton channels Marlene Dietrich for her German dominatrix character. (Tracey Roman/For the Press-Telegram)


"There are more than 250 pages of music in the show," desai said in a recent pre-rehearsal conversation in the Center Theater lobby that included the three performers. "And the show is only an hour and 25 minutes long. It moves so fast, and it is almost all music."

"Five Course Love" continues the ICT tradition, carried on by desai over the years, in bringing smaller musicals to the Southland, and she has found more than a few that deserved a bigger adueince than they got in New York. "In the musical thater today, there are lots of musicals that can't make it to Broadway because it s so expensive and dominated by corporate culture," desai said. "But there are many great shows that are being written and produced on a smaller scale, and this is one."

Any DRs familiar with this show?

Friday Media Check:

CD - JUBILEE (BBC-Radio cast)  Thanks, DR Elmore!
...

I went looking for this in my library's AV department and this was as close as I could get:

[singdaw]

Any DRs familiar with this show?

No, but I find it a curious quote.  What if our DR JoseSPiano got paid by the note - or by the page?

[Ginny]

On that Cole Porter recording, you can even hear him turning the pages as he plays.

Clearly, not what DRs MattH and Edisaurus are enjoying today.

DR Elmore - how can I get a copy of your Jubilee?

[singdaw]

Hmm...

Maybe THIS is what Kritzerland is releasing on Monday?      

[JoseSPiano]

Hmm...

I hesitate to think of what you were looking for originally.







Oopps... Too late.

[JoseSPiano]

Jose and Rodzinski, lets all go to see ONCE and have dinner and cry like 3 saps.

"Mary", "Mary", and "Mary".

[JoseSPiano]

<snap!>

[singdaw]

I hesitate to think of what you were looking for originally.

Well, actually...

JUBILEE!

[FJL]

TREE SAPS FOR THREE SAPS - that's the name of my new soap opera about three saps who visit Central Park and...oh, never mind.

[Ginny]

Well, actually...

JUBILEE!

Let me know if you find it - I had no luck.

[JoseSPiano]

Any DRs familiar with this show?

I know of the show, and I almost saw it back in 2005 down at Minetta Lane.  The amazing Heather Ayers was in it, as was John Bolton and Jeff Gurner.  Alas, the show itself, was not that amazing - at least from what I heard from friends at the time.  And I've actually read through the piece before too.  There are some catchy tunes, but just "some".  

However, I'm guessing the author has made some revisions and improvements since the NY production.  I wish it well.
