Jrand, one camera shows were shot in 35mm, as were some three camera film shows, such as Lucy, Happy Days, Laverne and Shirley.  Don't know what the red light is - there shouldn't be any visible lights on a 35mm camera.

Hmmm maybe it's something on the recording console, but it's there for the world to see.  8)

Hmmm...DRTOMovOZ let me get this damn play open this week, and I'll make you a Giselle CD - and since you own some Polly - how about some Mavis Rivers?

Or Ella Mae Morse?  8)

Now, may I just say, eleven o'clock and I'm the only one in the jernt?  This will NOT do, oh, no, this will NOT do.
Eleven o'clock PDST is two o'clock EDST.  I was at work.  Using a Polly Holliday reference: kiss mah grits!

Every time Barbra Streisand is a topic of discussion, claws come out and lots of hissing ensues.

Good evening all. I am currently listening to Spelling Bee which I just bought on Itunes and I am enjoying it so far. I have also been trying to buy A Light in the Piazza all evening and it keeps telling me I can't buy it because it is being modified. I have also just discovered the song One Tin Soldier while working at camp this summer and am trying to find a slower rendition than the original. (How I haven't come across it until now I do not know.) It has become one of my favorite songs. Any advice on a good version of it would be appreciated.

I am loving the harmonies on Spelling Bee. The recurring goodbye reminds me of a song from (if I am remembering right) either the eighties or early nineties, but I can't remember the name.

DR Joey.  I guess you mean the "Billy Jack song".  Most common version is by "Coven"but here was an earlier version by "The Original Caste".

Good Evening!

What a wonderful day!

I'm a bit tired right now, but a bit energized at the same time.

Just good work and good people.

And the Bagel Brunch this morning was the perfect way to start the day - and they had more than just bagels too!

*And I'm purposely refraining from making any comments - good or bad - about the show since this is a workshop production.  However, the whole workshop process is going well.  And they'll even have lighting and full costumes.  -It's a period piece - 16th (maybe 14th or 15th) Century Italy.  Should be gawgeous looking!

In any case...

It was quite easy to dive right in and take the reigns for the day.  And even though I had a blast playing Mamma Mia!, it is sooooo nice playing real musical theatre music again.  So nice.  And gratifying.  *And it was also nice getting compliments from the composer and lyricist today too.

:)

DR vixmom - Hope all is well in vixLand - or at least calming down.  In any case...

Two of the young women in the show were in Little Women on Broadway.  Jenny Powers is the lead, and Megan McGinnis is playing her friend.  Great voices, and very nice people.

-Just thought you would like to know that.

DR Joey - When I did the 70's revue, "Have A Nice Day", a couple of years ago, "One Tin Soldier" also became a favorite of all of us youngin's in the cast.  And the girl who sang it in the show, even learned to play the flute/fife lick too!

Oh - And I'm posting from the rehearsal hall.  We finished rehearsal at 7:00, but then I had to send some Finale files to the conductor - who will be back tomorrow - as well as write up the Notes from today's rehearsal.

In Paris, in the 1850s, Adelina Patti sang for Rossini his aria "Una voce poco fa" from THE BARBER OF SEVILLE.  She loaded it up with lots of decorations and new notes.  When she finished, he said to her, "Very pretty.  Who wrote it?"

As Rodgers & Hart said, I like to recognize the tune.

Of course, nowadays, if a diva does not "pretty up" "Una voce poco fa" with lots fioratura and such, the claque gets on her case.

And now I'm heading out for a little bit to eat.  And I think I also will have an adult beverage tonight too.  I would like one.  -And deserve too after today.

;)

We have orchestra rehearsal tomorrow from 1:00-5:00.  Then desserts at 8:30, followed by fireworks at Vassar's Sunset Lake.  Should be a nice Fourth.  *And I still might head into the city too tomorrow.  We shall see.

...And then Tuesday we're in teach from 11:00am-11:00pm.  A good ole 10 out of 12.  I'll probably just be taking notes and running parts to the copier.

In any case...

Laters...

No more clutching, and my throat feels better, although occasionally it relapses briefly.  But, today is pretty much spiffy, health-wise.

Thoroughly enjoyed THE INNOCENTS, and I will look forward to the official Fox release in, I think, August. Freddie Francis REALLY knew his stuff; his cinematography throughout is breathtaking.

And I'm sure DR MBarnum will perk up when he gets home and watches this week's QUEER AS FOLK. The hunky Matt Battaglia has rejoined the show, and he is as stunning looking as ever.

Well, I scored 34 pages of the opening number and ran out of 4-bars/page paper!  I still have one refrain in G, a verse in A-flate, and a final refrain in Bflat for Tuesday.  I guess tomorrow I'll do another song on different paper  (6 or 5 bars/page).  Good night!

DR Ron is certainly correct. We have squabbles every time Barbra Streisand worms her way into the discussion. I think we should just agree that we're going to disagree about her.

As for the Lawrence Welk reference, maybe DR Elmore was thinking of Alice Lon who looked a bit like Gieselle MacKensie. Gieselle's violin duels with Jack Benny are comedy gold.
