RE: Ann Crumb - I got to see here in that chamber version of Rags they did at AJT a couple of years of years ago - well, more than a couple at this point.  Great little production - and I loved the new book and structure.  And the whole show was done with a cast of 11!  Oh, and Crista Moore was in it too.

RE:  Copacabana - I played a week or two of the first (Equity) tour that went out.  That was one BIG show!  They traveled with more trailers (sets, costumes, etc.) than The Producers!.  Kind of a fun show, but for all the wrong reasons.

DR elmore - I know I've asked you before... Are you going up to see Golden Apple? If so, can I come too?  Or can I at least secure a ticket through you?  *And since that's my birthday weekend...

DR Matthew - I like ALW too.  Even the 'dreck'.  And Aspects is my favorite of his too.  Some of those madrigal-like sections in the second act are pretty cool.

I did play Whistle Down the Wind at the National Theatre in DC...  Great orchestrations of bad music... and, unfortunately, the production was also just not good.

I thought T S  Eliot was rather a competent wordsmith!

I want to say something about that, but it's late and I can't think straight!

Of course!  He won Tony Awards® for his "book" and lyrics! ;)

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.
