Good morning, all! Last night's dreams included a visit to an elderly Lotte Lenya. She looked good.
This morning around 10:30, I will run down to Encores! to see Joshie my adopted son. hand him some work, and catch up on MERRILY WE ROLL ALONG gossip. After that, I may stop at the Juilliard Book Store and look at some music befire I head home to do some edits on the liner notes written so far. I sent New World Records an email last night asking for a definite word count on notes. A 60-word maximum for each of the 102 songs allows one to say nothing, so I'd like to get some idea of this booklet for the CD set.
DR Jose, I will most likely get one ticket for the dress rehearsal; that's been the practice in the past. My only complaint with the City Center - not Encores! - distribution is that the ones who work on the show end up with the lousiest seats since the good ones are set aside for donors, etc. Since I'm giving them my best work at a discount and it's a big 50% discount on this production because I wanted to help Josh out, my feeling is that all of us working on the production deserve better treatment.
