I managed to spill a container of walnut halves all over the floor this morning so the vacuum will be coming out shortly to clean up the mess.

After I call Access-a-Ride for tomorrow's trip, I have no plans for the remainder of the day.

Lovely review by John G of "Directed by" in the Notes!

Agreed! :D

DR Freddie - once, back in the day, at the office I had one of those "While your were out" messages - Please call back Mr. Wolfe.

When I called, it was the number for the Bridgeport Zoo.

Amazon is horribly slow with that these days, DR Elmore. It makes no sense. My review of the new book took six days to post. I believe that’s my personal best. Maybe I can make it to seven next time - and after that, who knows? Sky’s the limit!

I wrote mine yesterday. It posted within minutes. I don’t understand it. My other reviews usually take at least a day.

I think that when the book is new and it’s not a verified purchase, that first posting takes forever. Then others get through much quicker. At least that has seemed to be the pattern on a few that I’ve paid attention to. Or, who knows, maybe there’s just literally no rhyme or reason to it, no matter how you try to analyze it.

I agree with the no rhyme, reason or algorithm part.

Happy Easter to everyone.  The newest Broadway Radio Show episode is now up and it's another DIVA Shout Out show as we look at the career of UK star Maria Friedman, who has moved on to become a director and also a Tony Award front-runner this season for her work on the smash revival of Sondheim's Merrily We Roll Along.  But on this episode we look back at her work onstage in the West End and her recording career with lots of wonderful musical selections!

Since this is best site on all of the internet, I will ask my question here.

Next season at my theeder we will do two musicals of course....one director wants to do MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS (and he can have that Ken Ludwig abomination) - so I am looking for a funny comedy with a known title that I can offer.

We have an audience that pretends that sex and woke and pajamas do not exist - so it must be a "family" comedy in language and situation although there is some "wiggle" room there - so to speak.

We have done most of the classics & Neil Simon's chestnuts recently - so I am looking for something else.

And I know I will get lots of suggestions here.

How large a cast is preferred for a non-musical?
