Oy, what a week!! First, we had our last weekend of
Pajama Game, which went fairly well, although at the last performance Sid completely botched Blue Town (or whatever it's called), which made doing the string underscoring next to impossible. Then we had our little benefit in remembrance of the departed director (the one I needed the
Sugar charts for), where all four singers (two of whom are Equity, not that that means anything
), went completely up on various lyrics, making my accompanying next to impossible. Then,
AOL decided I had exceeded "rate limits" and prevented me from emailing anyone. I literally spent 4 hours on the phone with various people in the far reaches of India, none of whom were even barely intelligible, and none of whom (obviously) had a clue as to how to fix the problem. I am most desirious of suing AOL. Any attorneys out there wanting a slam-dunk class action suit?
Yesterday I posted to Max Preeo's listserve about our version of
Reefer, since several listers had emailed me very sweet messages about how vapid they found the L.A./Showtime version. So this morning I get an email from the list's resident Newport (some of you will understand that reference), who informs me that my message was not clear: was I referring to an early version of the L.A. Reefer or a completely different version? And if I was referring to a different version, why was I bothering to post about it? I shall scream (ooh, a Lionel Bart reference).
So, this is my first day off in several weeks, and I am doing domestic things like cleaning, etc.
Since I have missed the past few days,
my Ask BK/DR question may have been answered already: Did anyone watch Eileen Ryan in that TZ episode, and did you or did you not think she bears an amazing resemblance to Meryl Streep?
