At least you were not referred to as a gelding. Nor was it suggested you should be put out to pasture or worse.

...so we had a farily pointless rehearsal with just the leads.

Yeah, that about sums it up.

What happened was a scramble to find a Frank Butler for the production in the first place.  The one who was originally cast dropped out before rehearsals even started, having received a better (a.k.a. paying) gig with another theater.  After trying to wrangle a few different guys into it, they finally found one who could only do the first two of our four weekends, and he's the only one we've worked with up to this point.  A few weeks into rehearsal, they finally roped somebody into covering the second half of the run, and tonight was the first of his two put-in rehearsals.

DRLAURA - who knew the picture of an airplane could be so romantic.  Very nice!

I meant to tell you yesterday when you mentioned DIAMOND HEAD, MR BK, that Ms France Nuyen (with all of her scenes filmed in one room, practically) walks away with the movie.  She is so beautiful!  And the scenery is stunning.  That Elizabeth Allan woman who later played Paul Lyndel's wife (!) on his TV series, is probably one of my LEAST favorite actresses...I don't get her message - not that she is sending one especially for me.

OLIVER! was okay tonight.  Sold out for tonight and the rest of the run.  And audiences are full of crazy people.  They call and ask for tickets and you say there are none, and they ask about another night, or you tell them you only have 2 singles and they say I want six together, please.

Then there are those who reserve 10 tickets and when they arrive....well Aunt Esther and Uncle Tanoose couldn't come and we really only need 4 of them, thanks.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.....and they are also a bunch of mess cats - I hate cleaning up after people who should know better.

Can you tell I have had a BAD day.  Tomorrow will be better, I am sure.

Oh, and some &^*%# tore the faucet off one of the sinks in the ladies room!  Whew!

Well, that explains it!

Thanks, DR Jed.

There was that great article in the New York Times last year about the problem with thefts at restaurants - people taking the silverware, ash trays, plates, etc.

Well, one restauranteur noted that someone had stolen the sink fixtures in one his bathrooms.  They were some expensive European set-up.  However, the person not only stole the sink fixtures, but installed cheap imitations in their place!!!

I work with a woman whose daughter will be getting married later this year.  Madeline (my co-worker) was asking me about music and songs and I suggested "In Whatever Time We Have."  It's all I could think of on the spot...that and the wedding processional / "How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria" from The Sound of Music. ::) Anyway, I said that I'd make a CD of the versions that I have:  the original London cast recording, the American Premiere recording and the BK-produced version from "The Stephen Schwartz Album" (which I got autographed by Stephen Schwartz, himself!)  Anyway, that's my last minute post (if this posts). ;D
