Four!

John G. · « **Reply #91 on:** November 24, 2017, 04:49:30 PM »

Page four? Really?

John G. · « **Reply #92 on:** November 24, 2017, 04:51:10 PM »

Here you go, Ginny.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #93 on:** November 24, 2017, 05:02:15 PM »

That’s quite the basement workshop.

Nice pic DR Ginny. Thank you DR John for sharing it here.

Yes, it is. My sister took this photo from the card table where she was working and Sue, whose work is across from mine, was over at the die-cutting station. My brother-in-law has done a lot of the construction for the studio.

Thanks, DR John G, for sharing the photo for me.

Good evening.

Wae-Ling, my daughter, and I had a productive day of doing nothing.

That was beautiful, Elmore.

Do you hear the original and then reconstruct it? Or is it an all-new orchestration?

The original overture is long lost, so this was created new for this production of the show. Rob wrote the transitional material and put it together from the songs. Joshie and I suggested some changes and then he and I sat down together and orchestrated it. After the first band rehearsal, we did a few rewrites.

I am just now listening to it, lovely indeed

First we watched Peter Pan by the Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society, which Wae-Ling enjoyed very much.

Laura · « **Reply #101 on:** November 24, 2017, 05:49:42 PM »

Then we watched Forever Plaid, the movie, which didn't translate to movie well at all. I wish they would have kept the camera still longer than 5 seconds at a time.

Laura · « **Reply #102 on:** November 24, 2017, 05:50:31 PM »

Then we watched the Leslie Ann Warren version of Cinderella.

Laura · « **Reply #103 on:** November 24, 2017, 05:51:05 PM »

Then the clip of the re-do from a few years ago on the Tony Awards.

I have a ticket, but I really have no interest in it. I'd really like to sell the tickets -- something I have NEVER done before. But I think my daughter would like to see it.

How many tickets do you have, two or three? It seems Mae-Ling wants to see it.

Laura · « **Reply #105 on:** November 24, 2017, 05:52:43 PM »

A question about quick changes led to watching Kelly O'Hara's quick change in King and I.

Laura · « **Reply #106 on:** November 24, 2017, 05:53:36 PM »

Then I asked if she'd like to watch a clip from Hamilton.

Laura · « **Reply #107 on:** November 24, 2017, 05:53:54 PM »

"Hamilton! Hamilton!" she said.

Laura · « **Reply #108 on:** November 24, 2017, 05:54:36 PM »

And she sang (rapped?) along with the actors.

Laura · « **Reply #109 on:** November 24, 2017, 05:54:57 PM »

So, I guess I won't be seeing Hamilton when it tours.

One of my favorite kinds of days. I'm afraid I won't know the feeling until January.

Had tuna sandwiches for the meal o' the day, picked up a couple of packages (screeners arriving regularly now, not a one of which I have any real interest in, and have been relaxing and listening to music. Now I'll make some popcorn and watch something.

The mail today: my new winter boots (ordered from Columbia Sportswear) and The Red Shoes!

Jane · « **Reply #114 on:** November 24, 2017, 06:15:11 PM »

Do the boots fit?

ChasSmith · « **Reply #115 on:** November 24, 2017, 06:17:22 PM »

Have to answer that tomorrow. Too tired to check them out now.

Jane · « **Reply #116 on:** November 24, 2017, 06:24:34 PM »

I can understand waiting until tomorrow to try them on. Good luck you are happy with them.

bk · « **Reply #117 on:** November 24, 2017, 07:21:22 PM »

Thank goodness someone has gotten The Red Shoes - the Indiegogos were the last to go out, but this is the first one I've heard of that's actually arrived.

John G. · « **Reply #118 on:** November 24, 2017, 07:58:04 PM »

Time for Benadryl.

John G. · « **Reply #119 on:** November 24, 2017, 07:58:10 PM »

Good night, all.
