Well, you've read the notes, the notes had too little sleep, and now it is time for you to post until the sleepy cows come home.

Last night, I ushered for the national tour of "The Producers." I had never seen the stage show before. I loved it! The performers were all very good, and the actor playing Franz is fom Oregon! Evidently, he had family and/or friends in the audience. There was almost an entire full house, well over 800 expected. The audience loved the show. A great time was had by all.

I did noticed that they cut two songs, "It's Bad Luck to Say Good Luck on Op'ning Night" (they just had one line about how you're supposed to wish someone bad luck), and "Betrayed." The courtroom scene was very short. I don't know if it's because the understudy for Max was on, or if they're just cut from the show. I'd heard a couple of people say that it was their 99th performance, and the first for the Max understudy, and that tonight, their 100th show, is their last. This tour will now be over.

Wow cutting Betrayed! That is Max's "showstopper" and it also gives a recap of the whole show. How did they get away with that! I hope that wasn't the norm. As for "It's Bad Luck to Say Good Luck on Op'ning Night" it's a one joke song but it's fun to hear. But still that wasn't Mel Brooks and the other creators intention not to have them in the show.
A national tour of only 100 performances is not a big tour to me. It is roughly 3 months providing the did 8 performances a week at each stop.

George, do you know if that were the non-equity tour of "Producers"? I think it's the same company that staged it here recently. I didn't get a chance to usher for it, and I heard nothing about it. In San Antonio, they only played one day of performances and were then gone to another city/stop.

The same production company has a Bullets Over Broadway that's playing today. Again I'll have to miss it.

Closing night tonight, and right now I am just luxuriating in my morning and afternoon off. Yesterday was crazy and I'm fortunate to have survived it.

But I am now twenty-four hours without the need for drugs, not even so much as an aspirin, and that is a wonderful thing.

Good morning, all! I slept really late for me. Around 9:00, I decided it was time to rise. I'm not shining at all, ut I am moving.

Around noon, I need to call Citibank. A second debit card arrived in yesterday's post with a completely different account number! WTF?

I'll finish my proofreading for Joshie today, get myself organized for tomorrow: podiatrist at 9:30, then City Center. Joshie hopes we can finish the proofreading tomorrow so he has Tuesday-Thursday to enter fixes and adjustments, print full scores for Ben, the conductor, format the parts, and print and tape the parts for Friday's reading.

I believe all that's unproofed at this point are the Tag after "He Plays the Violin" and a reprise of "Yours, Yours, Yours."

If I get my energy up, I may also make a market trip. there is absolutely nothing to eat in this dump beyond shelled walnuts, peanut butter, and bread.

And cookies.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #23 on:** March 06, 2016, 06:35:35 AM »

I need a nap.

And coffee!

I could use a farmer's breakfast right about now.

I may not be able to eat it all, but I'd sure like to have it set before me.

DR Elmore continues to whet my appetite for 1776.

Sunday morning greetings! Today's title is the story of my life. I've "slept" 3 nights in a row in my Momcave recliner and by 7am today I could not get comfortable. Coughing or not, I'm going to have to try sleeping in our bed tonight.

Ginny · « **Reply #28 on:** March 06, 2016, 07:10:57 AM »

Richard went to church in Dayton, Rob went to church in Mason, Mary Linda is visiting her brother in Sacramento prior to a business trip to Portland, Oregon, and I'm home with the cat.
