Mary Phagan is buried across the street from my house in Marietta. That's all I know from PARADE, except that I always thought it was a strange subject for a musical.

I don't think I'll be seeing Parade, since I loathed every minute of it at Lincoln Center.

Even Jeff Edgerton as The Young Soldier who opens the show?

I saw a national tour featuring David Pittu and Andrea Burns which I thought was quite good.
I was familiar with the Leo Franks case from movies such as THEY WON'T FORGET (coming soon as a Warner Archive title) and tv's THE MURDER OF MARY PHAGAN.

Yes, unlike CANNIBAL - THE MUSICAL.

Any one who has any interest in the Franks case should read And the Dead Shall Rise: The Murder of Mary Phagan and the Lynching of Leo Frank by Steve Oney.  It's a valuable history & social lesson.

There's a new documentary about the case: THE PEOPLE VS. LEO FRANK. I haven't seen it yet but ave heard good things about it. The women who did the fundraising for it are also doing the fundraising for our new film: JEWS AND BASEBALL. They have held two events for us in Atlanta and plan more in NY, LA, Washington D.C. and possibly more cities. They are well-connected and we've had great turnouts so far!

Steve spent a lot of time in Marietta researching the case. His book was very controversial because he named names...lots of O.M.'s (Old Mariettans) had family members in the lynch mob!

I went to college with Steve---he was two years ahead of me but we both worked with the campus newspaper. He was a writer, naturally, and I was a photographer, which came with the perk of being able to use their darkroom whenever I liked!

DR Elmore, I'll be thinking of you tonight and wishing I could there. What is the scheduled run for the show?? I hope to get up there while it's still going on!
We open on Oct 28 and hope to run forever.

Just like FAME!

I know Jeff Edgerton. . . .

I really, really liked Steve's book.  I can understand the controversy!

When you say "dark room" it that a euphemism?  ;)

We are back from a fun time at the Miami University women's field hockey game (they lost to Ohio State, 5-2  :-\) and dinner at 45 East with Lauren and her mom.  We didn't get to see Lauren tape any ankles, but saw several players leave the training room after the game with ice packs on their knees - Lauren's handiwork.  She's really pumped because for second semester she's been assigned to men's basketball, which is a pretty major sport at Miami.

When DRs post their honest opinions here at HHW, I don't take it as a corrective, or as an "I'm right, you're wrong, and here's why."

Horses.      :)

GLEE was most enjoyable this evening. 

I did not know that Michael Buble has a new CD - I will explore that.  In fact I have a couple of them, and enjoy them....so there....take it back, DR TCB.  Or you will be sued for libel.  I have the same lawyer that Edith Farmer Elliot used to sue Jean Ratcliffe, and you know how far that got!

I scanned through today's AS THE WORLD TURNS. The boys were on both together (a little bit) and separately. And that super soapy ending to the wedding. Lordy, how CONVENIENT!
