I'm done with the first concessions shift. The second act started and I'm now at the downtown Meconi's Subs.  I'll eat, then head back to the Center for the second performance for which I'm concessioning. :)

Enjoy the rest of your evening.

Thanks, Jane.  I'll just be relaxing here at Meconi's until I need to leave in time to get another parking spot. ::)

I like Stella Stevens a lot - but I don't know if I'm interested enough to watch an entire documentary about her.

One of the earliest times I saw one of her movies was when I (and maybe my sister?) watched the movie Arnold late night TV when I was probably much too young to watch it. ::)

While this sounds vaguely familiar, I really don't remember it.

I can get the recipe, but sadly (for you) it's almost all gone. ;)

TOD:

Li'l Abner
Poseidon Adventure
Where Angels Go Trouble Folows
How to Save Your Marriange and Ruin Your Life

and almost everything.

I liked especially in the last one I mentioned she is trying to get Dean Martin to notice her. They get in an elevator together....and she says: "Do you have the time?"

And Dean says: "I don't have a watch."

And she looks at her watch and says: "It's four thirty."  The face she makes when she realizes what she's done and her rush from the elevator on the next floor are very funny.

We now have even a couple of more houses decorated for the season....it's fun to look out the front and back doors when it gets dark to see what else has been added.

Very nice!

RIP Tom Stoppard. Arcadia is one of my favorite plays ever. I made sure to see Leopoldstadt on Broadway. But there are so many plays of his I haven't seen yet.

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c74xe49q7vlo

Oh, no. :( I've see two different local productions of Arcadia.  DR Jed was in one.  They were very different but both very good.

There was a play I saw at a Festival in Ireland that I think was by Tom Stoppard about a man who auditioned for a community theatre production of The Three Penny Opera. He was cast in the chorus and eventually ended up playing the lead.

But I can't find a play with that description in the list of his plays. It must be someone else. But it was hilarious.

My favorite part was during a rehearsal the director would get to a certain part in the blocking and then the piano player would start to play. Each time the director would say: "Not yet we're moving on."

He did this about six times. Then the seventh time he got to a song cue and he said "Music, please....." the piano player had gone to the bathroom.....LOL

That sounds like a really fun play, Jrand!

I tried searching for the play DR Jrand75 describes but had no luck. However, I did find this announcement of a new Threepenny adaptation. Now that the German version is in the public domain in the USA, folks can do their own English translation/adaptation however they want, as we can see here.

Very cool!

The Evergreen State College is going to be putting on The Threepenny Opera, but they're using the 2002 translation.

I was thinking about auditioning, but at the time, TAO was going to be putting on a play that would rehearse at the same time.  Our play fell through, but by then it was too late for me. :-\

The foundation addressed this in one of their newsletters. The German piano-vocal score and libretto entered the USA public domain on January 1, 2024. But that does not include the orchestrations, English translations, post-1928 additions, etc.

Very interesting.
