Back from the evening of excerpts - not well thought out - the authors of Inside Out opted to have a director at the theater put their excerpts together and that proved to be not such a good idea. The Hazel portion of the evening was very short - thirty-five minutes, four songs, and although I won't mention it in the notes, it's everything you'd think it would be - bad idea, bad execution and kind of pointless. The book writer knows how to write a funny line and there are a few, but the songs do nothing. My pal Jane Noseworthy was great as Mrs. B.
