Page 2 Dance!

[elmore3003]

I listened to the first two chapters of Annabelle & Thatch yesterday and made a few notes I'd like to continue today, but I need to review a score from my student Joe to be ready for our meeting this afternoon.

[John G.]

Good morning, all.

[John G.]

Today would have been Mom and Dad’s 70th anniversary.

[John G.]

Congratulations, George.

[John G.]

Elmore, I sent you an email.

[ChasSmith]

Good morning, all.

[bk]

Glad somebody slept well - so far, I've gotten around ninety minutes of sleep  Have tried several times to go back to sleep, sans success. Will try again shortly.

[ChasSmith]

Back to Chicago tonight. And I got the music for next week's spring concert which looks like it'll actually require some work.

[ChasSmith]

Not very good sleep here. These days I wake up way too early, toss and turn, and sometimes never succeed in getting back to sleep.

[ChasSmith]

And it's going to be a dreary rainy day, which suits me fine. I gots plenty to get done indoors.

Nice interview with Danny Burstein.

[John G.]

It's going to be 106 today. That's hot for May. Or any time.

Nice interview with Danny Burstein.

Wonderful story!  thanks for the link, John.

Skip's shows in the 1990s seem to have had something that first brought married couples together.  Danny met Rebecca for the first time during "Time and Again" at the Old Globe in San Diego (though they didn't start dating until a bit later).  Howard McGillin first met his now-spouse at a reading of "Time and Again."  And Bill Parry met Maureen Silliman during the run of Skip's show "Blanco" at Goodpeed.

Yikes! Keep cool and try to keep cold liquids nearby.

[elmore3003]

Elmore, I sent you an email.

Yes! I got it. Annabelle & Thatch send their thanks.

[elmore3003]

I just got my first blurb!
"We're always wondering what goes through the minds of cats. They'd have to be influenced by the people they live with, right? Well, then -- no wonder that those curious felines ANNABELLE AND THATCH turn out to be interested -- nay, possessed -- by musical theater. What else could happen when they live with Larry Moore, the Broadway orchestrator par excellence. Now we see that Moore can orchestrate words with the same style and flair he's brought to music. ANNABELLE AND THATCH is as much fun as a hit Broadway musical -- and you know how good those can be."
-- Peter Filichia, Broadway Radio.

So beautiful! And what timing!  I was just about to send Danny A&T for a blurb.

[ChasSmith]

Fantastic! Filichia blurbs well, for both you and BK!

And to get another from a well known Broadway person would be wonderful.

Our "Mack the Knife" parody YouTube includes, at 2:15 into the video, a shout-out to Peter Filichia
- in the section where the real Bobby Darin version name-checks folks like Lotte Lenya and Jenny Diver and Lucy Brown. 

When I sent the link to Peter, he responded that he's OK with getting the shout-out.

LOTS of fun links already today.

[Jrand74]

I went back to bed and slept a bit more.

Thanks to everyone for the theeder vibes. I have to remember that you solve the problems one at a time. It's easier that way.

[Jrand74]

Congrats to DR GEORGE on his millstone.

[Freddie]

Helps add to the post totals!

[John G.]

Elmore, I sent you an email.

Yes! I got it. Annabelle & Thatch send their thanks.

Let me know if they like it.

That’s great.

I've been spelling it theedur.  Is it theedur or theeder, or is either acceptable usage?

[Freddie]

150 Guests on HHW on a Wednesday morning!  That's pretty good.

If anyone besides me was mystified at why "HBO Max" had decided to become just "MAX" - maybe they wondered, too, because it's becoming "HBO Max" again.
