I saw Christian tonight.

That's cool! Was he there in the audience or was he performing?

Guess I am not the only one not sleeping tonight.

Jane · « **Reply #5 on:** May 15, 2016, 02:37:16 AM »

Time to close my eyes if I sleep or not.

I'm getting pretty sleepy, myself.

George · « **Reply #7 on:** May 15, 2016, 02:44:06 AM »

I'm off to sleep.

Good night Jane, and anyone else lurking out there.

He was there as the host for the roast. Kind of a roast host!

Hi HHWers:

I try to read BK's blog with some regularity, but post rarely. Such is life with kids in school.

Having been to Bruce's show tonight, however, I wanted to compliment him on a marvelous musical review. L.A. Now and Then will resonate deeply with those of us who grew up or are still growing up here .... and that includes not only my daughter, but dear BK (who is still growing up?!).

Whether you knew L.A. then, experience it now, only in passing or never at all, who could not be taken by its soul, heart, charm, sadness and humor? I teared up, I laughed loud. (spoiler: a ballet wrestler). Robert Yacko, who I've seen perform at Kritzerland, is not only a marvelous singer but poignant actor. The entire cast was gave it their all, singing and shimmying their way through the eras.

It's Bruce's love letter to not only his Los Angeles, but all of the things we remember and miss from childhood, wherever we grew up.

I'm looking forward to the cast album and hope the show will have other runs beyond this one.

Good morning, all.

And an early one it is for the likes of moi on a Sunday morn'.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #11 on:** May 15, 2016, 04:08:45 AM »

Great photos. I look forward to many more.

How utterly bizarre about the box office. We don't experience that here in our similarly sized theaters. Regardless of the system used, however manual or computerized it is, we know what the reservations are.

Sure, someone might not show up -- but that's on them, and it's not a regular occurrence. It most definitely doesn't happen in droves.

Good morning to all

And a big HHW Welcome Back to DR lechienfou. While reading the notes I intended to ask after her whereabouts. And voila!... there she be.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #14 on:** May 15, 2016, 04:25:55 AM »

I must soon decide whether to take the train or drive into the city for this evening's performance of Do I hear a Waltz?.

It's the train, methinks -- as I'm more in the mood to relax and read, or even snooze, following so closely on the heels of five days full of driving.

Good morning, all! I was up far too late playing with my Blu-Ray player,

elmore3003 · « **Reply #19 on:** May 15, 2016, 06:48:42 AM »

I decided to watch Zeffirelli's film Callas Forever, and it took me about 45 minutes playing with the settings and switching back and forth to DVD to adjust the player to wide screen, and other picture things, By the time I got to bed it was nearly 1:00. I am a bit drowsy this morning.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #20 on:** May 15, 2016, 06:51:30 AM »

This morning, I will play a bit more with the player, check out some other DVDs from other regions, and maybe nap.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #21 on:** May 15, 2016, 06:52:38 AM »

This afternoon I will have dinner with Susanna Tarjan, Jerome Moross' daughter, then see Encores! with her and take her to the closing party.

I printed out Peter Foley's draft of my Provencal Carols arrangement for Soprano-Alto-Tenor-Bass Chorus, which he adapted from the men's chorus arrangement, and i need to spend some time looking through it today and tomorrow as well.

BK, I am really happy that the revue is playing to happy audiences, but Miss BO doesn't seem qualified to handle anyone's tickets.

I have been asked to do a Penn State University podcast on musical theatre orchestration. I wonder how far I can put my foot in my mouth this time?

Good news from DR ELMORE about his new player!

MISS BO - sounds like a wonderful parody contest. I'd watch it, even if live tickets might not sell too well.
