BK - I just got back from your show at the Metropolitan Room.  It was really wonderful, your song was a gem (as I knew from the album) and it seemed to go over great with quite a glittering crowd.  But the whole show was a delight, put me in a much better mood than I've been in, and I thank you for the escape it gave all of us.

I see they were taping it for you.  I think you'll be very pleased with how it went and was received.

 






I'm glad you were able to represent the rest of us who wanted to be there. And I'm glad it went over beautifully.

Took a few dance classes tonight (tango, cha-cha and quickstep) and am wiped out. I need to do this more. I'd forgotten how fun it is.

My interview is tomorrow morning at 9:00.   I'm looking forward to it...and to having it be over!  I'll know tomorrow night if I make the final three.  That's my goal for tomorrow


Best of luck tomorrow!

Entertainment Weekly gives Les Miz a "C," but the review reads more like an "F."  Liasa Schwarzbaum obviously dislikes the musical to begin with ("the listless music and lyrics...", the derivative characters fashioned from OLIVER! scraps") and she goes out of her way to dish everyone involved in the film.

FJL, I am glad that you could go to the show and I am glad that you enjoyed it.  It is nice that the show could put you in a better mood.  I really do love the CD.

The final line of the review:  "This prestige production is at heart a minor road-show carnival, leaving behind little but tinsel as it rumbles through the streets of Awardstown"

Just finished "Moonrise Kingdom." I might have liked it a smidgen better than BK, but not really by much. Still, everyone in the cast seemed to be having fun and that made it enjoyable at times. Tilda Swinton can take the most cliched dialogue and the weirdest hat and get belly laughs.

Today Edith surprised me with this for Christmas.  I had seen it in a Black Friday flyer and had mentioned that I really wanted one like this.  I had no idea she'd actually go out on Black Friday and get it for me.  I'm thrilled

Is that a panini press, Cillaliz? Should be lots of fun.

The plan next year is to do the Christmas show here in LA, in San Francisco, maybe Portland, and wherever else we can book it, and then she'd do a four-performance run of it in NY again at the Metropolitan Room.
