And I am home from a wonderful show. It was quite a wonderful evening and BK was a charming, funny host, just the kind you want because you know that with him as a guide the journey will be fun, a little crazy perhaps, and full of heart. The artists were delightful and the evening was filled with wonderful performances. My friend Dan Callaway, whom I've known since he was in the Encores! production of WHERE'S CHARLEY, was quite demented with his song from THE JUNGLE BOOK and really heartbreaking in his song from BUSKER ALLEY. I loved Richard Sherman's performances of "Chim Chim Chirree" and "Feed the Birds," and he and our mighty host sang their delightful "Two Roads," another highlight. It was all quite delightful, and I wish you all could have been there.
I got to see my friend Chris Denny who was the MD, after the show and my friend the great Marni Nixon, whom I'd not seen since a bus ride n the 104 bus about 18 months ago. I also got to meet two friends of our DR ChasSmith, Chrissie and her husband Nathan, who were quite delightful. I'm ready for tomorrow's event. I think it's going to be good!
