So, I've definitely got the BRAIN on the brain...
I had a dream last night that we were having the first read-through and rehearsal for the show. For some reason, I was getting there late - and I walked in and they handed me the script and we were just working on a scene that I wasn't in anyway - but then we launched into "The Plan" and it was a complete new song and they didn't hand me the music or even the lyrics. We had this short, dark haired guy who was supposedly a "producer" and was running everything.

It was odd -- but there definitely was a sense of fun in the room.

Man, I can't wait until next week...

I'm going to have to head downstairs in just a bit to clean up so I go tend to my Friday errands. I hate getting out in the heat and humidity, but if I don't, I'll have nothing to eat for lunch. The grocery store is my primary stop today.

Good morning, everyone.

Happy Birthday to DR S WOODY!!

May you enjoy a dinner that is every bit as good as something you would have prepared, but without doing any of the work!

CONGRATS to JRAND for a fine FANTASTICKS performance, even when all around him sucked.

CONGRATS to CASON on his now infamous EXTENSION.

CONGRATS to JASON on his weight LOSS and MAINTENANCE. May you remain swelte and sexy.

Morning all...

Posting from work, where I am actually at my desk, in my office, instead of in auditions! What a luxury... it's nice to be here and be able to take care of some business that I've been putting off for a long time because I just haven't been here long enough to get into anything. So of course I'm taking advantage of this by posting on HHW!!!

Had a fun couple of days with DR Jose on the keys, accompanying some Angry Housewives. My next round is not until September 6 -- another dance call for Movin' Out. The Rockettes are ruining my life and taking away lots of my dancers. I lost three in my 42nd Street cast and two in Movin' Out within a two-week period. Sucky ball change.

I sent BK some suggestions last night -- hopefully some of those will help him out. Crossing my fingers and sending good vibes to BK for casting!!!

Vibes to all who need them... sounds like almost everyone needs a healthy dose of good vibes and xylophones, so here you are:

I notice that DR FJL has been in very good form these last few days.

Anti-Aging Vibes to DR FJL!!

May you remain as quick and witty as ever and continue to entertain us!

A WONDERFUL NATAL DAY, DR SWW![/color][/size]

That hunky bod is yours, right, Sing? A self-portrait?

DR TOMOVOZ:
Thanks for the feedback on DUCHESS OF DUKE STREET. I identify with the character of Louisa Trotter so strongly that it's difficult for me to gauze how the series would come across to others. I found both series 1 and 2 quite compelling. I love how the characters change as the country goes to war and must live with the consequences of war. In fact, I think I love everything about this series! Glad to hear you and Colin enjoyed it, too.

So, when do we hit the talk-show circuit?

Should we do Jerry Springer first or hit Maury and do the DNA tests?

You must first do "Oprah".

Vibes of "no pain" for TCB!!

Jeanne · « **Reply #105 on:** August 17, 2007, 08:53:15 AM »

BK mentioned in the notes that in the "old days" things were quite different and actors were more professional in their attendance. I concur. I started acting not long after Bruce did and this sort of behavior was SIMPLY UNHEARD OF. We were young, oh yes, but we were thrilled to have those roles and did our very best. I recall more than once walking to the theatre (yes, I WALKED) after a bad day and feeling so pleased to have a performance to look forward to.

OK, I'll quit now. Otherwise, I'll need some of the anti-aging vibes I just sent to FJL.

I suspect The Jason and Cason Show would be quite a hit...but what happens when one of the cast members decides the name should change to The Cason and Jason show

Jeanne · « **Reply #107 on:** August 17, 2007, 08:56:51 AM »

I didn't mean to miss DR TCB. Sorry.

Comfort vibes to DR TCB!!

Well, there's always the reunion show to think about...plus we can hike up merchandise prices when we finally get back on stage together.

SWW...have a wonderful, wonderful Birthday today!!!

(but pardon the violent element of this birthday card!)

MBarnum · « **Reply #110 on:** August 17, 2007, 08:59:52 AM »

BK, perhaps Scott Bakula or John Schneider would make good Fred choices....they were certainly good in that video that Francois posted yesterday! (I had no idea that Bakula could sing!)

The second half of a 1930 Jean Gabin French film that I need to finish which I taped off of TCM a while back. It is quite a good film.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WOODY!

SPEAKING OF HAIRCUTS - I'm reminded of Jack Valenti, the President of the Motion Picture Association of America, who recently passed away. His barber cut his hair with a cigarette lighter. No kidding! He would singe Jack's hair short by passing the lit lighter over the ends of the hair. Rather than making the hair dry and coarse, this method actually made the hair soft--or so said Jack who had been going to the same barber for over 30 years.

Well, there's always the reunion show to think about...plus we can hike up merchandise prices when we finally get back on stage together.

At least a $5 price mark-up on all t-shirts, with a potential 2% mark-up on double-disc cast recordings.

And, to avoid conflict with whose name precedes the other on the marquee, I propose we have a spinning marquee...one side reads "The Jason and Cason Show," the other reads "The Cason and Jason Show." Equal billing all around.

Of course, that would require all merchandising to be either double printed or to alternate "Jason/Cason" and "Cason/Jason." Due to royalty costs, however, I'm afraid we may not be able to use either of our likenesses on novelty items such as mugs, keychains, magnets, mousepads, tote bags, umbrellas, buttons, dog tags or aprons, but our likenesses can and will be used on all display items, including but not limited to windowcards, billboards, souvenir programs (front cover: Jason/Cason, back cover: Cason/Jason, or vice-versa, per the agreement reached by our legal representatives) and all advertising.

Our people will be in touch.

I'm up, I'm up. No news yet, so no news is good news. One Joy suggestion was an actress I hadn't thought of, that I'd seen in a show several years ago - she was brilliant - not exactly what I had in mind for Joyce but could do it. She's doing a NYMF show - cast by my guy - but I can't blame him since I just thought of her, and he wouldn't have because she's so different than the others we've been discussing.

And so - we wait.

At some point today, I've got to prepare two boxes o' props.
