I didn't want to wait anymore...just in cast I waited too long.  I took the two Rodgers and Hart vocal scores. :)

Good choice! And it got us to 108% as right at the same time someone took a Laverne and Shirley photo.

I have now just finished watching the video!  That was great!  And I loved the Star Trek music at the end! ;D

The editor, of course, is THE Dave Strohmaier, who's restored all the Cinerama films.

Last night seemed interminable. At one point I thought, is it close to 3:00 yet? I checked the clock. It was 11:45. I was not amused.

3:00 seems to be the time of night when things happen in the apartment: I need a bathroom break, Stella begins her torment, and not long after, Annabelle climbs down from the bookcases to get warm. Thatch is the only one who does not pester me; he seems content to just sleep next to me.

I am debating a trip to the pharmacy this morning for my eye drops, but I'd rather hold off till Monday.  We'll see how I'm feeling later after kitty cleanup.

Speaking of kitty cleanup, DR slingshot, I loved the kitty litter disaster. Annabelle might be smart enough to pull the victim act, but Stella would simply walk away from the disaster she's created, as she does on a regular basis.  Thatch is so fastidious in his grooming that he would never allow that to happen.

DR ChasSmith, Mirette was in summer 1998 at Goodspeed. It's a lovely score that needed a lot of work on the book, and the book writer seemed lost at Goodspeed. I ran into jher at the bakery one morning and asked her how she was enjoying East Haddam. She said she was bored, and I was tempted to ask, why don't you fix your script? The director, the late not-so-great Andre Ernotte, treated Tom and Harvey very badly, and they behaved like perfect gentlemen to his nasty taunts. He was quite ugly, and - I suspect - jealous of their success.

At the first band rehearsal, I still didn't know if we would have a harpist, and Dan DeLange, the assistant conductor, played the part on a synth. I think Harvey may have been the person who suggested and negotiated the alternating harpists.

And, yes, you can tell the story.

Another former publicity client has passed away this week.

First Henry Darrow, and now:

Jessica Walter was a fine actress who I represented back in the late 1960s-early 1970s

BK, Benjamin Britten composed one full-length ballet for choreographer John Cranko and the Royal Ballet around 1957.  It was not a success.  Kenneth Macmillan - I think you liked his Romeo and Juliet - created his own version of the ballet.  You might enjoy it.

Jane, the film of Les Miz that I’m watching was originally released as three separate films and then packaged together as one.

He's here, he's there, he's everywhere!

Back in '74, I was in Bennett's (I think that's the name) movie stills and other stuff store - the one on the north side of the Boulevard near the Snow White Cafe - and I bought a photocopy an early version of the script for The Exorcist. That was the kind of thing we did back then.

Forty-some years later I pulled it off the shelf and glanced through it. There, at the top of the cover page, is the handwritten name "Strohmaier", and on the next page, "Workshop Copy". By then I knew him from his presence on Home Theater Forum, and I asked him if that would have actually been his. He said yes, a number of such things would have passed through his hands when he had some job at Warner Bros.
