Thanks to DR IRIS for the videos from the Sondheim Tribute last night!

Yes, thank you very much, Iris!

I wonder what I missed from the Sondheim concert. I found Patti LuPone erratic. Loved her Ladies Who Lunch and somewhat rushed Being Alive, but did not like her Send in the Clowns. Stokes was great on the Flag Song and Epiphany, loved his one-man Getting Married Today. Skylar Astin and Sierra Boggess were both good.

I kept wondering when Sondheim wrote so many power ballads and realized they were singing in the Hollywood Bowl.

Heard from someone I contacted about the musical we want to do. I have a long history with this person and he's very involved with one of the writers of the show, so he'll try to move the approval along. Hopefully he can.

I tried to log on between 6:30am and 7:15, when I decided life was too short and went to play on Facebook.

Yesterday, Doug sent me a pdf of the first proof of the first act of the ballet, 254 pages of score. I kept looking at it and thinking I wrote all of this?  I've got through number 9 and I've sent him some errors to be correct, some mine and a few his.

Glad I went to my guy. The agent approved us and sent that approval to the licensing company, so the theater should hear from them in a day or two and onward we go. :)

Last night I watched Act Two of the George Hearn-Angela Lansbury tour of Sweeney Todd. We watched Act One several days ago. I was surprised how much of the staging I had forgotten. I think Lansbury's acting had broadened quite a bit from what I remember seeing her in six performances on Broadway, but it was nice to see my friends Ken Jennings and Cris Groenendaal before age ravaged the three of us.

Futzed and finessed. Wrote three new pages. Lunch meeting in forty minutes, then I'll come right back and write three or four more pages, take a break, and then write more after that. Today's goal is ten to twelve pages.
