Well, you've read the notes, the notes were in Songland, and now it is time for you to post until the Songland cows come home.

Mushrooms and olives on pizza sounds good to me.

Hi Tom.

Jane · « **Reply #9 on:** April 05, 2018, 02:26:49 AM »

I did sleep for awhile.

Jane · « **Reply #10 on:** April 05, 2018, 02:27:37 AM »

With luck I am going back to sleep.

Good morning, all!

I have two pages to go and I've finished my Me & My Girl work. Hoshie will be happy to see me tomorrow.

Yesterday, when Annabelle and I went out for our patrol, Thatch in a sudden burst of courage followed her out the door. He got as far as the elevator, then turned tail and ran back into the apartment.

I think the time is approaching when you can tell him to put on his Sunday clothes, there’s lots of world out there.

I now imagine Annabelle singing Good Morning, Good Day, to everyone she meets in the hallways.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #18 on:** April 05, 2018, 04:59:40 AM »

Someone stop me before I get to Oklahoma!

TCB, to answer your question: No, I don’t care for Kelli O, but I found the pacing of the production too glacial and reverential. Forty minutes into it and The I felt it hadn’t even started. And I’d say King and I is my favorite Rodgers and Hammerstein show after the TV Cinderella.

John G. · « **Reply #21 on:** April 05, 2018, 05:09:51 AM »

I’ll read the article later, Jane. I had to turn the movie off after an hour. I needed something more peaceful last night.

I think it's going to be like the cage. He'll broaden his parameters each time he steps out. I think it might be time to invest in harnesses and leashes.

I thought she was wonderful as Nellie Forbush but I was unimpressed by her Anna Leonowens. I think I'd have liked Marin Mazzie better in the role.

I'm happy that the London production will use Joshie's tour orchestration.

Same. I especially love olives on a pizza.

I am the next one at my library for the dvd of I, Tonya.

T.O.D.

Looking at the dictionary definition of "diva," I come up with:

"A self-important person, typically a woman, who is temperamental and difficult to please."

That being the definition, I don't think there are any divas that I would call my favorite.

Druxy · « **Reply #27 on:** April 05, 2018, 06:32:23 AM »

T.O.D. (2)

On the other hand, I did see Mary Martin in I DO! I DO! with Robert Preston, and thought she was terrific.

I was at a Merv Griffin show where Ethel Merman sang "There's No Business Like Show Business". Off-stage, she was rather cold.

Saw Ella Fitzgerald in Las Vegas. Great performer, even though she dropped her hand mike during a number.

I've seen Carol Channing on stage a few times....

But, "a fan" of any of them?

I don't think so.

And, I won't even mention Streisand.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #28 on:** April 05, 2018, 06:42:39 AM »

Divas I love
Patti Lupone
Bette Midler
Maria Callas

Divas I can do without:
Madonna
Streisand
Kathleen Battle
Kiri te Kanawa
