It was probably the best show we have done.

The audience wanted a bigger curtain call, but we only give them one company bow, and we are out.

Our show followed a production of THE WIZARD OF OZ, which was actually a group of actors doing their best imitations of the movie actors from the film.

At 59 minutes, it seemed twice as long.

I don't understand why a "children's theatre" company would want to imitate a movie, rather than recreate their own versions of the characters?

Actually, they had a Dorothy that was sweet without trying to be Judy.

The adjudicators for our show were very complimentary, but also very nit picky of the show.  According to our director, that is a good sign for a show that is a possible contender to go to nationals.

Good luck the wait isn't too long Chas.

It was way less than they'd estimated...and you can't beat the price:   $0.00

It was a little thing they'd actually fixed for free along with a big job a few months ago, and even as busy as they were today, they re-fixed it for free.  Can't beat that for service.  But they've gotten a lot of money out of me in the past few years, and they'll be getting more soon for a couple of things that are coming due.

I took the garbage to the basement and got trapped between floors on my return.  I took it back to the basement, rode up again with the super, and all was fine.

The super tells me he called the elevator company on Thursday but there's been no response.  I have to do laundry today or tomorrow but I am worried about the situation. I do not want to be stuck in an elevator.

Vibes you do not get trapped in the elevator!  I personally would not get in it without using the bathroom first ;)

So far I'm untrapped by the elevator.  The laundry is in the deyers.  The elevator seems to like stopping between 1 & 2, and 2 & 3. Once it stops and the doors open between floors, it then stops on the next floor.

I have one more basement trip to bring up the dry clothes.  I hope it will keep running until then.
