Well, we made it through the final dress rehearsal mostly unscathed. Let’s hope no one gets scathed tonight.

I wait now for Amazon Fresh to show up. I have a long dance coming up for the ballet, so I've printed out the score abd spent the last 30 minutes making notes.

I just had my first disastrous Amazon Fresh delivery. I think there's a shopping bag with 5 or 6 of my items sitting in another apartment or swtill sitting at Amazon. And when the ice cream arrives and it isn't frozen, someone at Amazon is not packing frozen items very securely.

Very interesting about the SAMI episode.....I can imagine it's somebody's job to watch for those things AND NOTHING ELSE.

Good to hear that everything was solved.

I think MR BK put his finger right on why I am not enjoying to the utmost the HBO Perry Mason.....the character is weak.

Perhaps the idea from the beginning was to do a woke DELLA show, but not many folks would watch that - so we got pulled in.

There is a new episode every Monday night - and there have been three this season so that's all that is available until next Monday.

From DR Ron:

Quote
Re: Brendan Fraser

Another film you just don't read or hear about is "Mrs. Winterbourne".  Fraser plays twin brothers in this film, and he is quite charming throughout.  It "stars" Shirley MacLaine as Fraser's mother, but the story is about Ricki Lake's character who is "mistaken" for the wife of one of the brothers (who gets killed in a train crash along with his real wife but in which Lake's character survives.  She is mistaken for the brother's wife because she was wearing that lady's wedding ring when the train crashed).

While I remember the film as a good remake of Barbara Stanwyck's No Man of Her Own, I didn't remember Fraser was in it.

I asked Google's new AI client, "Bard," to comment on Stephen Sondheim's influence on American musical theater.

I got this response:

Stephen Sondheim was one of the most influential composers and lyricists in American musical theater history. His work helped to shape the modern musical, with its complex plots, challenging lyrics, and sophisticated melodies. Sondheim's musicals were often about difficult subjects, such as loneliness, alienation, and the dark side of human nature. He also experimented with new forms and styles, such as the concept musical and the opera. Sondheim's work has been praised by critics and audiences alike, and his musicals have been produced all over the world.
[/size]Here are some of the ways in which Stephen Sondheim influenced American musical theater:[/color][/size]He pushed the boundaries of what was considered possible in musical theater. Sondheim's musicals were often about difficult subjects, such as loneliness, alienation, and the dark side of human nature. He also experimented with new forms and styles, such as the concept musical and the opera. This helped to broaden the appeal of musical theater and make it more accessible to a wider audience.
[/color]
  • He created some of the most iconic songs in musical theater history. Sondheim's songs are known for their clever lyrics, complex melodies, and emotional resonance. Some of his most famous songs include "Send in the Clowns," "Something's Coming," and "Ladies Who Lunch."
  • He helped to popularize the concept musical. A concept musical is a musical that tells a story through a series of songs, rather than through dialogue. Sondheim's musicals, such as "Company" and "Follies," are often considered to be examples of concept musicals.
  • He helped to revive the American opera. Sondheim's musicals, such as "Sweeney Todd" and "Into the Woods," are often considered to be operas. Sondheim's use of song and dance helped to make opera more accessible to a wider audience.
  • [/size]Stephen Sondheim's legacy on American musical theater is immense. He helped to shape the modern musical, and his work continues to inspire and entertain audiences around the world.[/color]
