It's okay if you swallow one of his marbles, he has several more.

As I was watching that movie last night, I kept thinking what a great musical it would make. I think someone beat me to the idea.

Aventurera The Musical is at the Universal Amphitheater on May 28. I can't find anything about the show on the net. Does anyone know if this musical is based on Ninone Sevilla's famous film. HELP.

Go ahead. But be warned:

JRand, Playbill-online.com has a few news bits from a Mexican production that took place in 1999. Do a search of "Aventurera" at the site.

In honor of Eliza Dolittle Day, I'm going to listen to the original Israeli cast recording of My Fair Lady...sung in Hebrew!

Unfortunately, everything is still packed in boxes, including the turntable, but I have MFL on vinyl in Hebrew, Italian, German, and Spanish--the Mexican version with Plácido Domingo in the chorus. When I was in Germany in '71, I picked up a paperback of the entire German translation (same as on the disk), and it is really a marvelous rendering.

I also have cassette tapes of Russian and Swedish versions--and I think Dutch.

Some years ago, I put together via reel-to-reel tape splicing a version of "The Rain in Spain" where Liza changes languages with every line. Where the heck that would be now I have no idea. It would be so much easier nowadays with digital stuff.

Thanks DtM...will do. It seems that the show has had performances cancelled in several venues across the US, but is still a go at the Gibson and at the Aladdin in Las Vegas for June 4.

I received a call from the NIH and now have my dates. I will be there on October 3rd and 4th which means I should arrive in NY the evening of the 4th.

How about girls day out on October 5th, winding the day down with an HHW dinner in the evening?

Jose will you be in town then?

Jrand73 · « **Reply #102 on:** May 20, 2005, 12:43:29 PM »

Would love to hear that multi lingual Rain in Spain, DRWFO. Maybe it will turn up some day. It will when you are looking for something else.

Hmmm, that is a Wednesday. let me see what I can do as far as confirming a vacation day and afterschool coverage for the Vixter....

I don't know why , I just stupidly assumed you'd be here on a weekend, but let me see what I can do!

I should be. Well, at least I'll be a resident of NYC at that time, if not "in residence". I shall enter the dates in my calendar now.

Sorry about the week day. I will fly to Bethesda, do my thing and then take a vacation. I expect Keith to join me at the end of my NY stay. I hope you can get the day off.

Back, but must now run off to a meeting.

Contract was easily worked out. It's amazing how being obstinate always works. So, we're on.

Jessica is planning a move to LA to pursue film and TV - she'd like to pick my brain. I said she was free to pick whatever's left of it. I told her to call upon my return.

DR vixmom - Are you having a better day today? Has no one been deserving of a slow painful death?

Jane · « **Reply #109 on:** May 20, 2005, 12:55:40 PM »

Great Jose.

Vixmom, if not the day can you make it in for dinner?

Now children. Let's all be good and refrain from posting all the comments that immediately popped into our head.

In reality: that's good news, BK.

Is it just me, or has the price of VCRs creeped back up a bit in the past couple years as DVD has thoroughly taken over and dropped in price? DR Ann's VCR is on its very last legs, so I'm doing a bit of price checking for her. I could be mistaken, but it just seems as though the prices were lower a couple years back (the last time I needed a new one).

Even WILL & GRACE had ridiculous cliffhangers last night. Enough is enough!

Matt H. · « **Reply #115 on:** May 20, 2005, 01:11:24 PM »

It's almost cheaper to buy one of those combination DVD/VCR units now rather than trying to even FIND a separate VCR.

After enjoying another ANGEL episode, not enjoying ROOM SERVICE any more than I ever have (last 15 minutes REALLY drags), I put in THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK. Looks and sounds marvelous. I only got about 15 minutes in, but so far, so good.

A Production of Lady Widemere's Fan by Oscar Wilde is playing locally here in Florida.
I understand there is a musical version of it.

I'll do my best. I am anxious to met you "in the flesh".
