We have brunch plans so we can deliver the gifts we purchased on Diagon Alley AKA Shambles Street, York England.

Remember DR JOHN as I tell my casts when I have to make changes in choreography.....they are NOT changes they are IMPROVEMENTS!

We worked with a wonderful director who never told us in front of a  cast "this number is too long". or 'This exposition is too much detail" - but the code was "You know, this is really good, but it would be great if we could make it a little shorter  and leave them wanting more."

Have we mentioned the line from TOOTSIE where the rather sexist director within the show takes an actress rather roughly and says "I'm not touching you. I'm moving you."

That's TOOTSIE the 2019 Broadway musical, not the 1980s movie.

I was startled to hear the music from the song "Come On Eileen" in an ad for an Irish vacation.

Taking a break.  This fugue is endless, and keeping track of the individual lines is working my last nerve.  Stella has been picked up and moved off the table around five times now and she refuses to take the hint.  After I finish the fugue - about 16 more bars of it - the rest of the overture is easy now that I've revised the coda.

The song isn't all that wholesome, right?

This was the number.

I like that person's thoughts on it; they're pretty funny but respectful.

DR vixmom, where was this Cyrano production?  I love the play, but I also love Michael Lewis' musical version with Christopher Plummer and my close personal friend Leigh Beery aka Mrs. jonathan Tunick.

This is playing down on East 15th Street atthe Daryl Roth theatre

Just finished the fugue.  It seemed endless, but I think it will be rousing.  I've got 32 more bars to orchestrate and it's finished.  I figure I'll finish it by tomorrow afternoon.

Felt like having pizza, and decided that rather than Pizza Wagon, the nearby jernt I really like, I'd try another nearby jernt called Marco's, which I gather is a franchise but which has gotten some good Yelp love (and bad - live every pizza jernt listed there - reviews by idiots).  So, I drove over there (in the same strip mall as K's Donuts, only to find out they don't do slices.  Fail.  You'd think ONE of the Yelp reviews would actually mention that - well, one is about to, that much I can tell you.  Then I was going to just go to Pizza Wagon, but the street was completely closed off for a stupid street fair, so that was out.

I then drove to another nearby pizza jernt called Leaning Tower of Pizza - good and bad on Yelp - no slices.  Yet no one mentions it.  So, I drove to Joe Peep's, mere blocks from my late 1970s house - been there forever - got three slices of pepperoni to go and came home.  I've eaten two of them and they're not that good, really.  Too much garlic in the sauce - in my pizza book garlic has no place in the sauce.  So, back to Pizza Wagon next time, or I'll just go to Dino's and get the best.

It seems to me few places sell slices so maybe it isn't expected anymore.  It is a shame.

Bruce which pizza place did you order from when you didn't have a car?  I recall you liked that pizza.

Yes, that was Pizza Wagon - I've been going there once a week and would have gone today were it not for the street fair thing.

Do they have small pizzas? That would probably be the same as 3 slices.

Yes, but they had slices - I got three - and I think I should not have eaten the third as I'm feeling a little gross right about now.
