The other day Michael asked about doing BOEING, BOEING with an all-male cast. The play was done in Tacoma last fall, and the real question was why anyone would want to do the show at all. The play is very dated and the humor is, at best, sophomoric. I don't think it would hurt the show to change it to all men, but surely you can find a better vehicle to change than this one.

Acorn is offering Season 6 of DOWNTON ABBEY for sale prior to it being shown on PBS. Isn't that an unusual move on their part?

14 Guests tonight, and only 1 on today's posts.

I was going to wait and say good night to George, but I guess he has gone.

I've been in and out. I got sidetracked watching video reviews of "Into the Woods." One was 22 or 23 minutes long and pretty accurate.

I had quoted this post from yesterday and was going to write something, but the day changed before I did, but here's the quote:

Well, I need to leave now. I'm going to be running the sound for Olympia Little Theatre's production of "Circle Mirror Transformation," and tonight they're having a paper tech. It'll be the first time that I'll find out what's going on.

I went to what I was told was going to be a paper tech, but it turned out to be a cue-to-cue. Not a problem, really. It mainly was for the light cues. There are so few music or video cues that it wasn't difficult to essentially create the sound board plot while we were going through it.

George · « **Reply #17 on:** January 27, 2016, 01:25:32 AM »

There will be some video projections as part of this, but for some reason, they wouldn't project. The projector worked, but there wasn't a link from the sound/video program on the computer to the projector. Tonight, someone who knows what they're doing will have to come in and make it work. I won't have to be back until Thursday night, then not again until next Tuesday, which will be the beginning of tech week for me. They will have a Sunday rehearsal, but I'll be in Tacoma with DR Jane and her DH Keith watching DR Tom in a play!

George · « **Reply #18 on:** January 27, 2016, 01:26:53 AM »

As for finding out what the play that I'm involved in is about...it's about an acting class for adults. Because the actors jumped from cue to cue, they didn't say much of their dialogue, so I don't know any context for what I saw tonight. I was told that Thursday should be a full run of the show with lights, music and sound effects. We'll see.

Thanks for the input. I was thinking of doing it as a semi-staged reading as a fund raiser for The World Aids Museum. It was two years ago that I did The Normal Heart for them and wanted to do another one for them and thought that this might be different.

Good morning, all!

I did not get to the post office, so that is a priority this morning. Then, it's taxes and the Jerome Moross score. At some point I will take a break and do some cooking for the rest of the week.

I slept poorly, and my dreams are rapidly clearing my mind. I did dream something about being at a band rehearsal for The Wiz and I have a vague memory of something pertaining to this Bette Midler revival of Hello, Dolly!

Last night I was reading the preface to a new translation of The Man in the Iron Mask, which is the final section of Dumas' Musketeers series. This book does not exist in French, since it's actually the last section of Dumas' novel The Vicomte de Bragelonne. Anyway, I now want to read a biography, and there are a couple of out of print obes that appeal to me, Andre Maurois' The Titans and Hemming's Alexandre Dumas: The King of Romance.

It's also time to reread The Count of Monte Cristo; greatest revenge novel ever.

I've decided that once I finish my BBC mystery kick, I'm going to tackle most of the Shakespeare plays on DVD; I know I'll most likely never see a live production of The Winter's Tale or Pericles, but I can die happy without ever seeing another Julius Caesar.

Speaking of plays, to my mind one of the worst aspects of gay liberation is this trend of all-male or all-female recycling of what were conceived by their authors as heterosexual plays. I never want to see an all-male Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? or this new Sweeney Todd. There are plenty of quite wonderful gay and lesbian plays worth looking into, not to mention plenty of lousy ones.

Enough of me. More coffee!
