Happy Sunday to one and all...there's a new Broadway Radio Show up on the site for your listening pleasure. It's time (after more than a year) for another DIVA Shout Out episode where we look at the career and recordings of a talented woman of the stage, and this time the spotlight is on SALLY MAYES! Lots of wonderful songs from this amazing performer (many, of course, produced by our very own Bruce Kimmel!) Check it out:

I just volunteered some time with the Library of Congress, transcribing a 3-page letter from Hal Prince to Leonard Bernstein about the gestation of Mass.

That sounds great!

Yes, such fine dancing photos from John G!

I had to read George Eells' book about Gig Young as part of my research - he writes a lot of Gig's second wife who is included in my project.

I went ahead and finished the book. It's a sad story. I think Eells thought he had Young all figured out and tied things up with a nice ribbon and bow. I'm not so sure.

BREAKING NEWS....I actually laughed at something on SNL last night...I couldn't believe it.

I heard of but had never heard the musical guest Billie Eilish....hers is not a sound I appreciate.

this is what made me laugh:

You can't help but notice that THREE of the FIVE folks in that sketch are FORMER cast members.

I also liked DR FREDDIE's family story yesterday.

Eels wrote a not good bio of Cole Porter if I recall correctly

Just watched an episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents with John Cassavettes as an escaped convict. Great performance of menace and charm.

The outside greenery

And the entrance doors

So festive, vixmom.

The church looks great, Vixmom.

I’m sitting in a theater waiting to see The Holdovers.

Thank you, all, for the nice comments on the photos.

I forgot to say something, but I meant to. You look very happy and festive.

I have always wondered if Eels might be a closeted gay man. He certain;y avoids any mention of Cole Porters's predilections.

And I am home from a wonderful visit with Joshie. We tore that Entr'Acte, which will be the production's Overture, apart and made it better.

I'm up, I'm up - eight hours of sleep, dog walked, did both businesses, and she's had her first meal. In ten minutes I'll shower and I'll leave a little before noon so I can stop at Gelson's.

Sounds great, DR elmore3003.

It is grey and cloudy here. But not too cold. Feels like December.

singdaw · « **Reply #58 on:** December 17, 2023, 10:52:15 AM »

Which is a good thing.

Since it is December.
