Well after six hours, we have a cast.  Paul is played by someone who is definitely NOT Robert Redford or even a RR Type....but he is a solid dependable guy....and our telephone man is the head of the local Chamber of Commerce....so that should sell some tickets....

And so the show goes on....

I will try to get a "cast photo" to post at tomorrow night's read thru...the rehearsal schedule is finished....although SISTER ACT work may cause some of it to be revised.  My assistant has said that she can handle run throughs of scenes if they have already been blocked.  I have been waiting five years for her to decide she can do that!

St. Joseph find a buyer with a good offer for the Ohio property - otherwise we're going to have to turn it over to St. Jude.

Interesting info about that club.  Was it different before it became Feinstein's?  And how does he get his name attached to all these clubs anyway?  Of course I understand the expense of these things - horrible, really.  But there's also expense in seeing a show and it's usually twice the amount of a club - that said, I find these prices insane.  It's not that way here in LA, where the most a cover is is twenty to twenty-five bucks.

Your shows at the Triad, which you did with Adryan, were reasonably priced, too.  That's why a lot of us could afford to come to both.

I'm staying in today. I became overheated yesterday while running errands. I slept well last night, but one night doesn't make up for all the others. Thank God for AC!

Interesting thing about the "Color Purple" musical the first time I saw it was that at intermission, the feel was so hopeless, and I asked if anyone had seen the movie because if it ends up this hopeless, that was just the wrong day for this experience, so tell me does it end uplifting for as sad as it feels now.  (It was very well done, almost too much so, but act 1 curtain came down on uncompromising despair.)

I either have no news or simply can't think of it because I'm so tired.

Perhaps some nourishment will help.

"COLOR PURPLE" SPOILER



Of course, the reassurance and spoiler requests I'd made at intermission made me stay.  Then seeing it again with the new star another time, I was ready, so the first act curtain was emotional, but I knew relief was coming in act 2.

I understand Mr. Feinstein stays involved in the club, but is not one if the actual owners.  Wiki calls it a creative alliance.

Tuesday afternoon greetings!  I spent yesterday prepping for a small household painting job and finally put the first coat of paint on just before dinner.  Earlier this summer Richard painted our front door inside and out, along with the guest closet door and the frame of our living room picture window.  That left the frame around the entry to our kitchen and the chair rail in the dining room that need to match.  I'd promised him before we went to New York that I'd paint those.  One coat's on the chair rail and tomorrow I'll finish that and start the entry frame.

Took today off to attend a noon book discussion in at the public library in Hamilton.  The book was The Paris Wife, one of my favorites, and Cynthia did a good job reviewing it for us.

We're going out for dinner tonight with Rob and Mary Linda.  We've only said HI and BYE as they've passed through the common areas of the house ever since we came home from New York.

George, sorry about your game.  Have fun playing it again.

Thanks, Jane.  It is fun, and it takes a long time to play, so this is just a little blip in the whole scheme of things. ;)

Back from picking up a package, a frustrating attempt at finding food to bring home (every place I went I could not even find parking) so I ended up at In-N-Out and got two cheeseburgers - didn't take too long and here I am eating them.

Listening to some George Shearing is always helpful.

His trio recordings for MPS are fascinating as the trio is him on piano, a guitar, and bass - no drums.  It's an interesting sound and I'm enjoying it, but Shearing can do little wrong.
