The witch was almost like a drag queen, who strips off her punk pink hair to reveal a bald head. Again, the audience loved it.

Happy news indeed. It’s seven!

I’ve seen something like this several times before. Reinforces the magic of live theater.

So have I. During a local production of Jesus Christ Superstar, the guy playing Jesus lost his voice, so for one performance that I saw, the music director sang most, but not all of the show from the orchestra (they were just off to the side of the stage).

And then for the other performance in the same run, they brought in another singer to sing the whole role.

Both times, the original actor "lip syched" his performance to the live off stage singing.

There were supertitles, even with the English libretto.

It’s been fun reading about the Republicans eating their own.

Yup. My niece feeds her chickens their own eggs...and eggshells!

Back from a good rehearsal. I got the opening done, the opening number done and the scene and second number done. I'm dealing with a lot of folks who are older so we go a little slower.
