In the "it never ends" department, our set designer, who also is our Beverley Carlton, went to the hospital this morning with chest pains.  They've been running tests and so far think it's just a muscle thing.  We don't know if he'll be back in time for our afternoon run-through at three but will most likely be there for the evening run.  We do have our lighting guy who could read it, but that's kind of dopey, so I will probably spend the afternoon doing a cue-to-cue mostly for sound since there are only ten light cues, and then cleaning up sloppy stuff.

George, which  Broadway shows appeared on the CBS broadcast?

Actually, I don't know.  I haven't watched it yet. ::)

Today, I need to go back to my sister's and help put up lights again, since we weren't quite successful yesterday.  Then tonight, I'm ushering for Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Christmas Carol.  I'm sure I'll have time to watch it at some point.

Speaking of the Macy’s Thanksgiving parade did anyone else think it was weird that they changed the lyrics in the Beetlejuice song to talk about the NBC hosts, the parade, and Thanksgiving?

I saw that, and no, I didn't think that it was weird.  Things like that happen all the time, especially for special events.

Jane, she most certainly DID eat here. She filled her plate with turkey, stuffing, and gravy. That's all. Her favorite foods.

OK.  Then she didn't need to eat at home, only bites to be polite ;)

I'm getting really excited for this Friday's release of the 2017 Encores! cast recording of Cole Porter's "The New Yorkers."

The orchestrations were written by Josh Clayton and myself, some individually and some together.  Josh and I agreed to claim only one orchestration and let everything else be a collaboration, and the orchestration he claims is glorious. 

But I'll let him tell.

And now, I must be off to my sister's.  If there's time after fixing her lights and before I have to usher, I might go shopping for a new beard trimmer.  The one that I've had for at least 15 years is crapping out on me, and I'm sure it's not worth it to try and get it fixed. :-\ I might look on-line first.  We'll see.

Be back later.

I always thought the point of those musical numbers  was to entice people to the theatre by giving a preview of the show.  I found the lyric changes off putting...
