First orchestra dress rehearsal last night went great. This is my first time singing at Bing and it was great fun. Here's my view:


Wow!  Nice theater!

I've done that before. ::)

Oh, my goodness!  I can't believe that I forgot to mention this!  When I worked concessions on Sunday for Olympia Symphony Orchestra's Orchestra Games, I worked with a new concessionaire named Merrily.  We got to chatting and I talked about the play I just SMed, and she mentioned that her cousin Tom Birkeland used to do plays before he died!  I said that I'd known Tom for many years and then we chatted about him for a little while! :D

Wowza! That’s cool.

Thanks, Rodzinski!  It is!

I had to go to a choir rehearsal tonight about 20 miles away by highway. The roads were icy and treacherous and thankfully folks were going very slowly and cautiously. There is accumulated snow on non-road surfaces and the temperature has dropped precipitously.

But I don't think things are as bad as in the Northwest.

Did I miss mention of this issue - is TWO TACOS FOR TACO TUESDAY a TWO MULES FOR SISTER SARA reference?

So glad you're safe!

I miss Tom so much

I was just talking to a friend and her son has moved to Tacoma.  I almost said I have a friend who lives there.

Got time for a short film tonight. Murder by Contract features Vince Edwards as an assassin. Great score so far.

It is 5:44 p.m., and dusk is at its darkest point.

I feel winter is upon us.

And in just about a month, the days will start getting longer again!

I liked DR GEORGE's story about Merrily.

Thanks, Jrand!

My day from hell is officially ended. I am going to lie down, chill out, and sublimate all my rage in a good murder mystery. Things are still a mess, but improving. More to follow tomorrow.

I, too, miss TCB.

George, is Merrily new to doing shows? I don’t recall TCB mentioning her. Was she named after the Sondheim show?

I don't know how close they actually were.  We could only chat for a few minutes.  And she is much older than the musical, but she could've been named after the song, "Merrily We Roll Along." ;D

Here's a New York Times article on the audiences singing along at WICKED

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/20/movies/wicked-movie-singalong-debate.html
"‘Wicked’ Fans Singing in Movie Theaters Are Anything but Popular
Some fans who have attended early screenings of the film adaptation of the hit Broadway musical have treated it as a singalong. Not everyone is thrilled."

Interesting.  It seems that this might not be a local problem. :-\

Back home after a delightful evening.  I thoroughly enjoyed Wicked and didn’t notice the “no singing” sign.  I had read some articles and social media posts about audience behavior, but ours was quite respectful.  Everyone applauded at the end.

The Darjeeling Limited is tonight's movie. It's a Wes Anderson I remember liking.

I saw that and really liked it.

Were you in any way disappointed that it was only part one?
