Well, you've read the notes, the notes were like an Irish song, and now it is time for you to post until the Irish cows come home.

Probably not.

I feel lost without my partner in crime.

I know this isn't Wednesday, but will there be a recording (audio or video) of the 10th Anniversary of THE BRAIN FROM PLANET X?

T.O.D.

TORCHWOOD

I think that is the only UK series I have ever watched all the way.

I agree! Torchwood was very good...at first. I didn't love the last (American) season.

I also love "Doctor Who" and "Red Dwarf" and "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy."

How was THE FANTASTICKS?

George · « **Reply #16 on:** August 29, 2016, 01:30:13 AM »

Well, I only saw the first act of "The Fantasticks." I had to leave after intemission to be able to get to the TAO auditions in time. A couple of months ago, I posted about a production that I saw in Portland, Oregon directed by a friend of mine, where they added mothers and split the lines between them. Well, this production (which only played this weekend) was directed by the same guy, and he added mothers to this production, too! WTH? It was otherwise well done and well cast with good singers, except for the mothers (who shouldn't have been there), Matt's father (I forget his character's name), and El Gallo. Matt's father always seemed like he did not know many of his lines. El Gallo was a good performer, but he was a kid...probably just out of high school. Much too young for the role.

And that's my 2 cents.

Glad I missed that production.

It wasn't horrible. Just a couple of wrong directoral decisions.

George · « **Reply #20 on:** August 29, 2016, 01:43:41 AM »

After "The Fantasticks,", TAO had the first night of auditions for our fifth annual "An Improbable Peck of Plays." Saturday afternoon, I made copies of all the scripts to be used as sides, but I only made one set of copies. So yesterday, after concessions, I had to rush to a FedExKinko's and make the copies and rush to the theater.

George · « **Reply #21 on:** August 29, 2016, 01:44:05 AM »

Most of the auditioners were there by the time I got there, so I just had to make the announcements and introductions, and then the directors took over. They handed out the scripts and chose who read what (of course), and overall it went realy well. We have more auditions tonight, then they plan to cast quickly.

Well Tom, I must go to sleep now.

Good night and have a good day.

My choices for the TOD:

Rock Follies
Tom Brown's Schooldays

FJL · « **Reply #27 on:** August 29, 2016, 03:04:11 AM »

Does Monty Python count for the TOD?

FJL · « **Reply #28 on:** August 29, 2016, 03:07:32 AM »

Do concerts count as UK shows? If so, I'd also add the Adele concert at Royal Albert Hall. (She seemed so much more relaxed there than in her other concert appearances.)

We watch a lot of UK shows... We saw River some time ago and I highly recommend it
