I was awake in the middle of the night after a bathroom break for about an hour and a half.

What a lovely way to start PAGE TWO

[Rodzinski]

I didn’t know you taught at Shippensburg, Larry! I spent a week there one night.

[Rodzinski]

What a successful cast!

[John G.]

Good morning, all.

[Ginny]

On one of our early dates in 1975 Richard took me to the then-new La Comedia Dinner Theatre to see DR Elmore in “…Forum.”  They’re now celebrating their 50th anniversary and we’re going today to see “Jersey Boys.”  It’s a matinee, so we’ll be having dinner for breakfast.

Wow. Half a century. And "...Forum". At dinner theeder!

And dinner for breakfast sounds just fine to the likes of moi.

I think it’s quite miraculous that they’re still in business.  Richard went several times with school field trips when he was teaching, but I only remember one other visit.  In the early ‘80’s we went to see “The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas.”

Actors Theatre of Louisville had an amazing set designer. So the productions I saw as a kid were always a joy and full of surprises. Morning’s at Seven looked like two homes and had touches such as running water in the kitchen sinks. The Play’s the Thing was an art deco scene of sleekness and minimalism. One year, A Christmas Carol was a storybook that opened with the characters appearing from off the pages. They really spoiled me because budgets snd imaginations don’t seem to be all that in regional productions anymore.

1975? Really? Another life.

You can say that again!

On Broadway, Into the Woods had a playful set design that had pop-out doors, like an Advent calendar, for, say, the spirit of Cinderella’s mother.

The original Sunday in the Park with George had spectacular design.

Observations from last night's preview performance:

Apparently this isn't that place where they teach the kids that when your mic goes out mid-scene, you don't just keep talking - and then singing your solo - in your normal voice.

It also apparently isn't that place where they enforce no talking backstage while wearing mics, even if the feed isn't going out to the audience, so that the other crew and the orchestra monitor don't pick up your chatting about how it's okay to talk because it isn't being heard by the audience.

Yikes!

[Ginny]

I forgot to mention that two nights ago, I started watching on Amazon Prime The Marvelous Mrs Maisel. It's so good!

I loved that series!

[Freddie]

Thursday morning greetings!  Remember me?  I have no reason - good or bad - for being absent, other than being in a funk. 

Sending you anti-funk vibes, Ginny!

[Jrand74]

Vibes for DR GINNY!

[Jrand74]

Nice page DR ELMORE!

[Jrand74]

I shall have to think about the TOD.

[Jrand74]

Today my cousin is bringing me all of the pictures that my late aunt had - including the ones that belonged to my grandmother that my aunt would not share with anyone.

Hopefully she won't stay TOO LONG.

[Jrand74]

LOL DR RODZINSKI.

[Jrand74]

DR CHAS SMITH - sometimes when I am wearing a headset that is heard by all of the crew.....I now and then say:  "Sir, this is a Wendy's."

Thanks, DR Freddie!  Today should help…

TOD:  A real favorite on a non-high-tech level - For BELLE OF AMHERST at Two River Theater, Red Bank, New Jersey, the set of Emily Dickinson's home looked so welcoming and comfortable, that (if there had been actual running water/plumbing) you could imagine wanting to move into it.

Thanks, DR JRand!  I just think the past several years finally caught up with me.

Any chance of there being something juicy or scandalous among the photos?

That remains the most humiliating dabacle of my life. I never refer to it.

You didn't go with a group of us to see "Fiddler on the Roof"?

I don’t think so…

The original Sunday in the Park with George had spectacular design.

That show had a lovely imaginative and humorous set. Ones I've really liked:
Oliver Smith: Camelot, visually stunning; is the art of the painted drop a thing of the past?
Oliver Smith: Hello, Dolly!
Raoul Péne duBois: No No Nanette: three stunning 1950s settings
Boris Aronson: Follies; no one's gotten close to it since then
Boris Aronson: A Little Night Music
Tony Walton: Pippin, an amazing mix of commedia dell'arte, macrame, and Romanesque art

[Jrand74]

Yup DR GINNY it can do that.

[Jrand74]

One table and the bookcase are left across the street.

No DR RODZINSKI the house has not sold.
