DR John, I haven't had the courage to read Careless People even though I know I should.  I have had it on hold for ages and keep postponing checking it out.

I have had some kind of reaction to my medication - happens every few months. So I canceled rehearsal tonight and will pick up the seen pages next week.

Getting some rest.

It reads like greased lightning. The people aren’t just willfully ignorant, they’re sometimes callous and cringey.

It helps that it’s being read by the author who is from New Zealand and has an ingratiating accent.

Thanks everybody. You are more thoughtful than my cousin who called me. I told her I was not feeling well and trying to get some rest.

Her response was: "Oh okay.  Anyway what I wanted to talk about......"

And then went on for 20 minutes.

Tonight, we have a designer's run.  It'll be the first, all-the-way-through run...AND our Rapunzel's prince called out because he's not sure if he's getting sick or if it's allergies and felt it was best to stay home to be sure.  I really do hope either way he gets better quickly.

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.



Don’t tell me they cut the Irving joke from Cell Block Tango.

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.


WHAT IS THE POINT?? :o

It seems Wordle was difficult and a good number of people didn't get it.

Was up for a couple of hours at five, but back to bed at seven and slept until one-thirty.

Also placed a Gelson's order via DoorDash at 40% off - cheaper than going there.
