I would suspect that most of the non-verbal business in NOISES OFF is Michael Frayn since it is the conceit of the second act and so much of it is the non-verbal action of those behind stage while the dialogue of the play is going on out front.

If your copy is Faber, it's British probably...which would almost guarantee any stage directions in the script are Frayn's as the British editions of new plays seem to coincide with the play's opening and are usually published and in stores before the play officially opens. Many's the time I've bought a play of a new production and read it before I saw the play.  I'm pretty sure I've an original copy of Noises Off that I bought in London at the time, but I can't seem to locate it.

You may THINK this is JMK posting, but in reality it is BK posting from JMK's computer.
Very Odd. A JMK post without a bossa nova rhythm.

Ann is indeed feeling "under the weather"  I'm feeling a bit of a twinge of guilt, having called in sick when I really could have worked...but ah well, too late now.  And I've had a killer headache all day, so it wasn't a total lie. Right?? :)

Two hours from now, Jed, TCB, and I should be on our way down to the Land of Port.  Before we go, I must finish preparing my car for the trip, hit the supermarket, and finish the dishes.  

See all the NW people soon!

See you there!! ;D

So much excitement.

Nothing like BK has hit the Pacific Nothwest since Mount St. Helens blew her stack.

I have a few things to do before I take off for Portland (or south of) soon.  Since I'll more than likely be getting back later tonight than I did last night, I'll have to go directly to the house where I'm house-sitting and not log on tonight.  Tomorrow is when I'm done sitting the house, so I'll be able to post pictures tomorrow night (a "Yentl" reference!).

I agree BK, Amy should have broken her plans and attended tonight...I could tell she wanted to! Unfortunately, her husband is not a Bruce Kimmel fan I guess, and he wanted to keep their pre-arranged plans intact.

He did bring over Amy's copy of Naked Space which I will bring to the reading tonight for you to autograph, if you would be so kind...must keep the fans happy, you know! (PS: she is very cute).

Perhaps they promised they'd visit someone or attend a function.

Keeping/honoring one's word should take precedence over everything except death of a family member or a medical emergency (the real kind, not the "Ann" kind).

Sounds like a good time will be had by all this evening. At least on the Left Coast. I am about to move on to the exercise bike. Jeopardy and a half hour of bicycling await me.

OK... Time for me to head out for a bit...

In the meantime, just keep thinking "607", "138" and "247"

Ginny, Craig is moving to Bucharest for a year before returning home and grad school.  That is the plan for now.

This vegetarian needs to be very hungry before eating a Boca Burger.  I’m impressed Bruce ate it.  I prefer Garden Burgers and soy hot dogs called Leanies.  I also like the soy bacon.

George thanks for the wonderful photos.

JMK, I agree- hilarious.

I would like to spend time living in Italy and England after which I would return to Ashland.  

We have lived in New England and loved every minute of the autumns.  In the beginning, the first fifteen years, the winters were also fun.  Never were the hot humid summers without air conditioning.  The summers we could join a swim club were the most enjoyable.

We never want to live in Los Angeles again!!

DR HISAKA, what a lovely Chagall painting.  I had never seen it before.

Glad you, too, like it. Chagall painted his fondness for his fiance, Bella, on her birthday.

I go away for two and a half hours, and there's only been five, count 'em, five posts?!?!?  There's gonna be some bitch-slapping going on soon if people don't off their lazy buttcheeks and start posting.

SKAMMEN!

Ah, well...

Its about a young woman of Japanese ancestory who was raised in Hawaii, whio is now attending living with a  family in Japan (I believe they are related in some way, cousins, or aunt & uncle)  while studying Japanese culture. It is the story of  her adventures there.    

I watch it in Japanese with English subtitle although occassionally she will run into another American and then start speaking English and suddenly Japenese subtitles pop up

Thank you for the description, DR VIXMOM, and it recalls me that you have mentioned about the show before and asked me if the show's broadcated in Japan too. But, unfortunately, I still have no idea what the show is. ??? :-[

DRRodzinski just left after a round of watching selections from the HULLABALOO DVDs.  We had a pleasant dinner at Arties, a bit of 60s television, and I'm going to veg out before bed.

Time to wash the dishes now the sun isn't shining in through the window.  At times it is too bright for me to stand at the sink.

Bye Jose.

I'd do a monologue, but I'm just plain tuckered out.

The most I can manage is a little song and dance and a commercial announcement.

Of course, the giddiness will return several-fold after the reading and get-together...each will want to share memories and photos and whatnot.

I haven't had much whatnot in my life lately, so I'll take whatever we can get!

:D
