Well, you've read the notes, the notes were poetic and licensed, and now it is time for you to post until the poetic cows come home.

Last night, I went to the Washington Center's volunteer appreciation dinner.  I didn't win any door prize, but they did announce next season.  The center is celebrating its 25th anniversary season and for the big fund-raising gala, they're bringing back the very first star to play there...Ben Vereen!  The only musicals that I can remember them announcing were tours of The Color Purple and A Chorus Line.  Overall, a people were excited about the new season. :)

Loved Ben Vereen in "Grind" (and still love a half dozen or so of the songs in that score), but didn't care for him in the umpteenth revival of "Pippin" that I saw him one, one that he staged based on Fosse. He seemed to be sleepwalking in the part and, well, that sort of described the whole production. Still, when he's on, he's great to watch.

Good morning, all! I had really really weird dreams last night:
   1. rushing to meet friends on a flight to somewhere (Mexico?) and I think one of them was Jason Graae
   2. rewriting Christmas arrangements on the spot for the NYC Gay Men's Chorus which is being conducted by a stark naked Andrew Lippa (Oy!)
   3. driving God knows where and finding the Indianapolis exit is blocked so how do we drive DR JRand59 home?

Someone is wreaking havoc on my mind.

Today? More McGlinnventory. Perhaps I will find the missing music I've looked for the past two days is there?

Are you taking blood thinners, too, DR Kerry?  Actually, I ate some forbidden broccoli last night...

We did another LONG scene in rehearsal last night....but now it is DONE!  A shorter rehearsal tonight....just a few pages - so many people had conflicts - and then a longer rehearsal tomorrow night.....

We lost our Irene Malloy in HELLO, DOLLY! - she hurt her back....so the new Irene is in.....and all the of the press releases and the website have to be fixed to reflect the change.....and it wasn't even the director who told me....it was the sound man - otherwise everything that went out early this morning would have been INCORRECT.

The very first show I saw on Broadway was the original PIPPIN and it was literally a life changing experience.  The whole cast was incredible.  I believe I have related that Mr. John Rubinstein went on to great acclaim as both of my nephews' soccer coach in Encino.  :)

DR ELMORE there IS no exit FROM Indianapolis, so I am not surprised that there is NO exit to get there either.

I also loved the original production of PIPPIN.  I'm sure that between B'way and tours that I saw the show at least fifteen times (this is through only a few self-purchased tickets and mostly tagging along on school and church group trips.)

I predict that by the end of the year, a PIPPIN revival on B'way will be announced.  I'ts just about the only major show from the 70's that has yet to be brought back.

Oh I don't know that Broadway can match the PCPH production - they should have just taken us straight to Broadway....fer shure.
