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.

There was a moment when it starts with Albon sitting in his dressing room at the back of the stage a small room way in the back and as he sings his song the room gradually moves forward and widens until the entire stage was his dressing room , they achieved a movie style closeup on stage and I still think about it, and I saw that in ’87

Another double header here.

Band rehearsal for one show early afternoon, and a performance of another this evening.

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.

I could not get up this morning. The alarm rang at 5:15, and I went back to bed. When I decided to get up, it was 7:00, an d I'm ready to go back to bed. Of course, I blame the time change and the stress-anxiety provoked by the Fat Orange Felon in the White House.

Annabelee refused to eat this morning, preferring instead to lie on the teacart and flirt wth me. She left it for a moment, and Thatch decided to try it out. He seemed very happy lying next to me, and then Princess Annabelle returned to drive him off and reclaim her spot. As soon as she saw he was gone, she sneezed all over me and ab andoned the cart. What a bitch she can be.

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

Catching up on the posts, I’m so sorry to hear that DR Iris’s treatment has not gone smoothly.  Sending my best vibes!

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.

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

I had started watching it way back when, and I didn't stick with it. Not because I didn't like it, it just fell off my radar. Thank you for the reminder.

Half a century, DR Elmore.

Lot of water under that bridge.
Our Pseudolus in that production, Ritch Brinkley, ended up in a semi-regular role on Murphy Brown.
Our Hero, Andy Farrell, danced on Broadway in the 1979 revival of Oklahoma!, went on to assist Agnes deMille, and then vbecame a novelist.
Jim Roman (Hysterium) now lives in Los Angeles; he's a Breoadway investor whose big hit was Come from Away.
Michael Hayward-Jones (Marcus Lycus) and I did several shows together, stayed frfiends until his tragic death from cancer two or three years ago; he was a dera friend.
I used to see Smitty (Senex) often in the Drama Book Shop.
I had been in Pirates of Penzance with our Gymnasia, who retired about ten years ago as an English teacher-high school director.
