A couple of Arthur's speeches are switched around.....".......run, boy, run....." now comes before "......some of them do sparkle...." So when the lights went down on "Run, boy, run....." Arthur and Pellinore were still talking.....Glad the show went well.I had meant to comment on the CAMELOT libretto problems: 1958 London libretto has major rewrites of the last scene and the screenplay has others. I think the T-W script is the original Broadway or touring libretto since that's what Tams contracted for. I always lke the London scene better.

Stephen Sondheim Takes Issue With Plan for Revamped ‘Porgy and Bess’I have to say that I agree with Mr. Sondheim 100%.

Well, Patrick Stewart starred in an all-black cast with him as the white "Othello."But what's the white trash equivalent of Catfish Row? Middletown, OH?No offense, DR Ginny! Should I have said Franklin, OH?

.....although what DR Elmore tells me every day about you, I probably shouldn't always believe.
Teddy made me look quite nice. Whilst he was finishing up with me his next appointment arrived, trade papers in hand - someone named Jerry Bruckheimer.

Vibes to BK and Melody and everybody performing!!!
I am pleased to report that my interview with actor Rex Reason is in this month's issue of CLASSIC IMAGES.Rex talks not only about his films like THIS ISLAND EARTH, LADY GODIVA, BAND OF ANGELS, THUNDERING JETS, THE SAD HORSE, and THE CREATURE WALKS AMONG US, but also about his near death experience while doing his TV series MAN WITHOUT A GUN, his close encounter with a naked Rock Hudson, and his death defying fight scene with Jack Palance. He also tellsl about his sudden departure from show business just as his career was going gang busters and what he has been doing since.

They are both very good & I only heard one clip. Vibes you are thrilled with Marcella or Mary, however it works out.
Oh... I guess I should buy a present for my brother and his bride-to-be... SPOO!!!!
I'm trying to find a gift for a wedding in San Juan Capistrano, I'm sorry to say we will miss. The couple is registered at Macy's but it doesn't show they want anything besides a set of luggage that is on sale, and has been gifted already.
