Today was the start of the Taste of Tacoma.

They have my street closed about a block before my apartment.

Fortunately, it remains open to local traffic.

I would hope so! Do you have to show ID to get through the barricade?

Tomorrow night, TRacy and I are going to dinner and then to see LITTLE SHOP OF ~~WHORES~~ HORRORS.

TCB · « **Reply #127 on:** June 22, 2018, 11:46:52 PM »

It is supposed to be a rather good production.

No, but a nice young policeman followed me thru the closure, I guess to see where I was going.

THE most frustrating thing about The Swingle Singers is that Philips issued a box set of eleven CDs that included all the original group's albums through 1972. And this marvelous box set can be found NOWHERE - I mean not even at exorbitant prices - I mean it does not exist anywhere, and believe me I have looked EVERYWHERE.

Challenge accepted!

Actually, when I go to work on Monday, I might be able to find out if it's available to borrow through Interlibrary Loan. It's not the same as owning it, but it's something.

Lakewood Playhouse.

This is the closing weekend.

George · « **Reply #134 on:** June 22, 2018, 11:50:37 PM »

BK, do you happen to remember the title? Is it called a "compilation" or "anthology" or "collection" or...?

TCB · « **Reply #135 on:** June 22, 2018, 11:52:37 PM »

Usually, when I go to the closing weekend, the show turns out to be really good, but it is too late to tell others to go see it.

Tonight, I decided to go to Olympia Little Theatre's production of Suite Surrender and this is their last weekend, also.

George · « **Reply #137 on:** June 22, 2018, 11:55:54 PM »

It was quite delightful. I knew several people in the show, so that was fun, too.

TCB · « **Reply #138 on:** June 22, 2018, 11:56:32 PM »

Sunday it is supposed to get up to 80 degrees.

TCB · « **Reply #139 on:** June 22, 2018, 11:57:09 PM »

But it is only a one day heat wave.

TCB · « **Reply #140 on:** June 22, 2018, 11:57:42 PM »

Then back into the 60’s on Monday.

I don’t think I am familiar with that show.

Of course, I am only familiar with about half the shows that OLT produces.

I'd never heard of it before.

Chris directed LITTLE SHOP.

This is the director swap that those two theaters like to do.

TCB · « **Reply #147 on:** June 23, 2018, 12:02:49 AM »

Next season, John Munn is scheduled to direct A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC at Tacoma Little Theatre.
