CAUTION:  SHILLING FOR YOUTUBE VIEWS AHEAD!

As the MERRILY movie comes out, recalling the first Sondheim revival that went premium:  This week (Dec. 13) is the anniversary of the opening of the starry 2009 A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC, first starring Catherine Zeta-Jones and Angela Lansbury.

My blog and YouTube parody timeline celebrated that in our usual way-

Here's a 10-minute mini-movie from 2009, a parody marking that first time a Sondheim show went premium. (This was done with the permission of Mr. Sondheim and his publisher.)

A LITTLE SITE MUSIC, or EVERY DAY A LITTLE NET followed the ladies of A Little Night Music (Charlotte, Anne, Madame Armfeldt, Desiree, Petra and Fredrika) as they dealt with the internet and premium tickets to the starry revival of their show.

I think my favorite biblical film is The Nativity Story.

I dont know it, but I did like the BBC version.

But I also prefer Robert Graves' novel King Jesus to Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John.

I remember watching the Boy Friend on home video and I mentioned here that there was a jump cut during one of the musical numbers which I forget which one at this time and I wondered if they couldn’t find the footage and BK mentioned that’s how it was in the original released version.

Happy Sunday to one and all... on this week's Broadway Radio Show, author/historian/director Rob Schneider returns to share his 12 Favorite Show Tunes!  Back in October, Rob was on the show chatting about his terrific book Queer Musicals, and now, he's back to reveal the dozen show tunes he loves the most.

I enjoyed the photos from the boat parade.  We are too far away from the river to see the boats well unless we use our telescope.

What's really cool is that building used to be an auto shop back in the 1980s (the restaurant kept the big garage doors!) and that auto shop used to be owned by Mona's late husband.

Cool.
