This afternoon I saw "The Secret Garden" at the Shakespeare Theatre in Washington, DC. It was great. Josh Young and Michael Xavier were wonderful as the Craven brothers. And youngest ever female Tony winner Daisy Eagan played Martha, the housemaid, and was terrific.
Someone at church gave me a $250 gift card to buy toys for the kids at the soup kitchen...
Diana Montague, the British mexxo-soprano whp plays Aunt Minnie on my recording of Roberta, is in Manhattan rehearsing for the Metropolitan Opera production of Romeo et Juliette. I hoping she can go with me tomorrow night to see the Town Hall concert of Bright Star.
I went out this afternoon in search of chocolate Santas. No chocolate Santas to be found. The nearby Ralph's supermarket has had them in the past at Christmas, but not this year. The employee I asked said that the store manager must be a real grinch!
It doesn't seem of feel Christmas-y yet this year.
