Well, you've read the notes, the notes were deceptive and trailed, and now it is time for you to post until the deceptive cows come home.

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.

I slept well until there was bathroom break around 3:45. I spent the next two hours playing with Annabellech and Thatch and dozing. I didn't really get back to sleep, and I remember no dreams.

Yesterday I had a lovely telephonic session with my friend Rob Berman. We hadn't spoken in a couple of months, .so it was a nice catch-up session. Then I had a long session with my student Joe. He's a talented composer, but when he sits down to write a arrangement or orchestration, he thinks too much. There are too many things going on, and he needs to simplify, clarify, and focus what he wants to accomplish in his arrangements. I really like working with him because he's very bright and working with him is sorta like a mental ping-pong game.

Well.....I usually buy some makeup compacts for the theeder for the guys. I get them at Dollar (25) Tree.  It's easy to teach them how to use it.

Since our audience is so close, the actors don't need a LOT.

Well it must be the tariffs because after four weeks there has not been a replenishment of the product at the retail outlets.  It hate to go to Max Factor or some other theatrical makeup because it's just a waste of $$$ - I guess it's time to check the WalMart makeup counter.

I hope Celtics and Knicks get worn out and play to a Game 7, so Pacers can further wear them down on the court.

Dress rehearsal last night was scheduled as 6-10 pm and we mercifully got out an hour early. Hope the same happens tonight, because we have to do the early-rising thing tomorrow morning for a morning school show. Then, public performances tomorrow and Saturday evenings complete the run.

Here's something I wonder:

Why do high schools do Chicago? Why do Catholic high schools in particular do Chicago?

This is not a complaint. Great show, and always great to play. And granted, they ALL use the "Teen Edition" which absolutely emasculates the piece in addition to the necessary shortening. But it's still about what it's about, which is celebrating more or less every form of corruption and illegal activity we know and love... right?

Also as to that edition, it's hilarious (to me) when the director (maybe even the school administration?) goes even further in cutting or changing a line, because, you know, we can't have our innocent kids saying or portraying or implying that... which would almost certainly mean they have awareness and knowledge of it. The horror!  8)

I just wonder what the people involved are thinking in this regard. Again, not a complaint. I happily take their money.

Oh, good question. I'll listen for it tonight. One of the lines I know they cut (from - yes, the teen edition!!) is "the spread eagle". At this performance it's "the number 17", period.
