I hope someone sings "Losing My Mind" like Dame Edna.

I was IN the play once....my part was the choir director who was also a secret alcoholic..."And you tenors, don't sing so loud - leave that for the Methodists on the other side of town...."

And then later I was walking down the street late at night and someone bumped into me and I was drinking whiskey from a bottle...the audience got very quiet.

And still later I was in my grave in the cemetery with all the other dead people and I still had my bottle.

An alcoholic even in death!

Sada Thompson was a method kneader.

Dominick Dunne says Frank Sinatra was a real a-hole during the rehearsals for Our Town. Years later at the Beverly Hills Hotel, for no particular reason, Frank paid a waiter $50 to punch Dunne in the nose.

That’s what I get for trying to find any footage of that production on YouTube.

Our Town was the first play I ever saw. We read it in junior high and they took us to a production at the Hilberry Theatre.

Sounds like rain going on outside.

I love Our Town. Don't know if I have ever seen it live. I loved the TV version BK references. But I don't like Robbie Benson.

I would have liked to see Spaulding Grey as the narrator.

And I think I would have liked Kenny Leon's recent revival.

Our Town was the senior class play in my high school. I think we may have even read it. It was a fixture in the culture then.

Because I went down the damn Our Town rabbit hole.

Also, not talked about was the David Cromer production with Helen Hunt.

Stage Manager seems like a tough role.

Watching a little more Nutcracker. Paul Bogart of Evening Primrose fame directed very well.

Today is Fibonacci Day: 1,1,2,3.

It’s as good a reading as any to have pie!

Decided I don't want to go out at all today, so mail place on the 'morrow.

Decided I don't want to cook anything here - so Jersey Mike's Philly ordered.

bk · « **Reply #54 on:** **Today** at 11:46:44 AM »

Decided I just need to relax and not work today.
