In other playwright gossip, Lillian Hellman was known as Snookie to her friends

Jrand - I believe THE HERBAL BED was the next production in the season after mine at Camp Loyaltown right after we did the all-boy YOU'RE A GOOD MAN  CHARLIE BROWN.  Very popular title.  That year everyone was doing BYE BYE BIRDIE, HERBAL BED and FIDDLER.  We were cutting edge with CHARLIE BROWN.

(that's a joke.  HERBAL BED was at least as cutting edge as CHARLIE BROWN)

DR Vixmom, when I was in Pippin back in 1980, we had a very tall  female leading player. I liked the dynamic


Did we know before today that Cilla was a thespian?

Can't pay too much attention to the Boston news. It's too disturbing to me.

I am so thankful that my stepson was not running the Boston Marathon this year.

He picked a good year not to be there.


I'm glad I decided not to run the Marathon, too.

Re August Wilson having changed his name from Freddie to August.  I had thought of following his lead.   I had been thinking of changing my name to June, but then I started gaining weight, and I was afraid people would start saying June is busting out...

Or they'd say "Because it's June - June, June, June"

Although it might hav been fun to have Leslie Uggams do the musical story of my life




LOL!  June, you are one crazy dude!

It isn't really an evening to babble on, just to raise the post total.

Just when I thought the world could not get crazier, something like Boston comes along and tears your heart out.

Back from A Catered Affair - what producer in his right mind would have thought this show should have been on Broadway?  It truly boggles the mind how deluded some people are.
