For reasons i cannot fathom now I was then too terrified to turn off the lights and I nodded on and off with my bed lamp turned on. It was also too warm inb the apartment with the comforter and too chilly slrrping under a sheet. It was a bad night.

Then I dreamed that the Macbeths and I were forced to fly to Florida in a tiny plane to pick up a payment, U was convinced the plane, which held o more than six people, would not make it.

Title: Re: KRITZERLAND AT STERLING'S 63
Post by: Matthew on December 10, 2015, 09:37:20 AM: So, last night's Fiddler was fun. It made the last week seem like it didn't happen. Larry Blank's accordion part for the 2007 London Production is a train wreck. 60% of it is the piano conductor score and the rest is right out of the original part - which I have played before. It's taken me a week trying to figure out what to play from the p/c score, which of course is impossible to play as written on the accordion. I think I've figured it out and have resigned to being able to play what I can. I have a feeling the part was meant to be played on a synth, where the original was definitely written for an accordion.

But whatever.... it is what it is.

Yes, that's always the tightrope - I like to give great material to kids, but it has to work for them - when someone suggested The Worst Pies in London, that made me laugh right away and I think I'll give that to little eleven-year-old Hadley - that, to me, is a funny and interesting idea.

I suppose that any other song from "The First Nudie Musical" would be too far over the edge.

;)

Probably "Dancing Dildos," too, don'tcha think?

How about "Who Do I Have to Blank to Get Out of This Show"?

I am trying to find the Christmas spirit, without much success. I have watched SCROOGE and I have listened to Bernard Herrmann's "A Christmas Carol" with no luck. Next up is MAGOO'S CHRISTMAS CAROL.

Have seen Magoo and listened to the Hermann soundtrack. Scrooge will have to wait.

Tonight is White Christmas.

Did you say hello to Gabe for me?

I never got a chance to speak with him. I guess he's got or getting over a cold and avoided getting close to peopke. I'll see him again tomorrow night and can tell him then.

Only one rehearsal?

Yup. We've got 9 or 10 people reading poems and short stories, and only two people read more than one piece.

Post by: bk on December 10, 2015, 11:59:45 PM: I've been working at the piano most of the evening. And trying to just not be so irritated that I take someone's head off - found out the Musical Theatre West, who does a series of staged concerts of musicals are doing Li'l Abner next year. The guy who runs it used to be my assistant at the record label we don't name. I've talked to him before about directing something and I've certain mentioned Abner. I wrote him to tell him I'd love to do it, that our production was a smash and everyone loved it - he writes back and says it's one of his faves, too, but that they've already set the director. But he heard John Massey and Maddy Parks were GREAT. I wrote him back a terse note saying our production was incredible and that I did not understand why he would do something like this, when he clearly knows we were a smash. What a jerk. I suspect he'll use Massey and Maddy, and let me tell you if either of them report to me that they've used one thing, ONE thing from my production (as you know I did many things to bring the show down to two hours and make it not dated and really funny) that was of my doing, I will ridicule these people all over the damn Internet. I'm just disgusted.
