I did get the copy of the BREAK magazine that features a picture of the Cagelles on the cover. I'll try to scan that tomorrow and let you see what that moment in the show looks like. As for other pics, well, there aren't any to show yet. (There were some of us taken in rehearsal clothes that were featured with the story, but I doubt anyone would find those of interest. Better to see us "in our show drag," such as it is.

Thanks DRs BEN and DtM - I am still a bit confused, probably won't watch on the internet, but we shall see what happens.

Mrs. Ball?   Which of course reminds me of the story of the first day that Lucille Ball drove onto the old RKO lot, the day after Desilu bought it.  The guard at the gate was completely flustered at seeing America's Queen of Comedy (no matter what Joan Davis thought) and didn't know if he should call her Miss Ball or Mrs Arnaz, so he tipped his hat and said: "Good morning, Mrs. Arballs."

Thanks, DR Jrand and others, for the continued good wishes. I do have quite a few friends in the audience which tends to put me on edge. I know they wish us well, but, well, they're all performers, too, so . . . .

Got about half of THE MAIDS watched. Wonderful acting though so far I can't say the play is one of my favorites. I've never seen this before either in this movie version or on any stage anywhere.

Yes, there is an amusing soundclip of someone making fun of Larry King.

DR George, have you thought of a way to copy both the sound and video of the Tony Pre-Show Webcast this year?

No. :'( I remember finding some program that can record Internet broadcast video, but it costs too much...much too much.

How is that possible?

It's INconCEIVable!

I do wish I could share the cast photos with all of you.  Well, at least one of them -- Jed's.  Not only does Jed share the photo with one of the sweetest and nicest men I have ever met; but it also exposes the terrifying secret that Jed has attempted to hide from the world......


He has a huge head!

Well, the only available copy is currently hanging in the lobby of the theater.  The Managing Director might take offense to having it removed just before opening night.

Off to rest a bit before heading off to the theater. Cast has tqalked about going out after tonight's show, so I'm not sure I'll be back on tonight or not. It would all depend on when I get home and how tired I am.

WHEW!  I've worked all afternoon in the basement, sorting out stuff for the garage sale.  It's mostly household items and toys that I don't think our college-age son will miss.  Of course, it all had to be washed and some of the toys are receiving the "peanut butter treatment" to remove the stickers that Rob liked to take out of junk mail and slap on his belongings.  He'd be so embarrassed if he knew I'd told you all that!

Among the household items are several wedding presents (almost 25 years ago), including a pressure cooker still in its original box.  I never even unpacked it, because it scared me.  Guess they're back in fashion now, so someone will be happy to find it next weekend, I hope.  Also, an electric wok, 2 ice buckets, 6 Irish coffee glasses, and a couple sets of placemats.

I also found the sign that one of my staff members, a calligrapher, made to put on the counter in the library to announce Rob's birth 20 years ago.  That's not being pitched, nor is the button that says, "YES, M!CH!GAN"
