Good evening, folks.

TCB · « **Reply #154 on:** April 19, 2014, 08:24:08 PM »

I arrived home at 8;02 p.m. Even for a play that runs one hour and twenty minutes and starts at 7:00 p.m., this would be some kind of record.

For the first time (I believe), in my 58 year career, we cancelled a performance of a show, thus proving that the show does NOT alsways go on. Around 6:45, the young man who plays my grandson came over and sat down next to where I was sitting. "Madelynne is hurt," he says.

Huh? What do you mean she is hurt?

"Well, she bent her little finger all the way backwards. I think she broke it," he says. "She said I did it, but I didn't."

Did you tell Scott (our stage manager, our director, and the Artistic Director of the theater)?

"Uh no," he says.

TCB · « **Reply #156 on:** April 19, 2014, 08:43:41 PM »

Finally Scott comes around to give us the five minutes call.

Not so fast, Scott. You have an injured cast member.

For the next ten minutes or so, eveybody is running around like chickens minus heads.

Finally Madelynne says she thinks she can go on. The curtain speech is given, the opening music plays, and the girls go on laughing and talking.Five minutes into the scene, Scott comes running into the green room. "Where is Madelynne, he says.

She is onstage.

"Oh no she isn't," says Scott.

TCB · « **Reply #157 on:** April 19, 2014, 08:51:06 PM »

Sure enogh, Madelynne is found throwing up in the bathroom, while the other three actors onstage are trying to cover the missing lines. Well, this isn't going to work, so Scott goes out and stops the scene and announces their will be a delay. After a 15 minute delay, the show is cancelled, the money refunded, parents are called, and Madelynne goes off to either the ER or the Doc-in-a-Box.

It wouldn't have been so bad, but there were a couple of reviewers in the house. Everyone said they would return another day, but judging by the look on Scott's face, I am not sure he believes that.

My, DR TCB.

It sounds like they didn't follow THIS cardinal rule:

So - did you leave the theatre angry tonight?

No, I didn't. But, never fear, there is always tomorrow.

then i went home and Vixdad took me to IHOP--- I had two crepes with carmelized bananas and "foster" sauce with crushed pecans

its not on the menu... but they made it for me ... its good to be a 'regular" (and a good tipper)

TCB · « **Reply #173 on:** April 19, 2014, 10:33:05 PM »

Too bad the Catholics are the only ones offering sainthood.

vixmom · « **Reply #174 on:** April 19, 2014, 10:34:16 PM »

then as we were on the way home the Vixter texted me that her 'add oil" light was on, so we stopped at an auto store and bought oi then went up to church where she was working and added 3 quarts of oil!

time for the child to take an auto maintenance class, me thinks

Back from the Seder, which was much fun - delightful people for the most part. The drive was long both ways - an hour or so going and about forty-five minutes coming back. But really only one seven mile bad stretch.
