Yeah, she's a sweet lady and we worked together 10 years ago and had a great time - I just had no idea that they wanted me to do other stuff too...But I can't back out at this point.

I do intend, however, to be abusively drunk during the performance....

We would, wouldn't we? Barb does FL every year for business, but we were talking about Disney at some point. One of my cousins has a big house on the Keys somewhere...Never been there but have been invited since forever.

Big time ONJ payback.

It's the thing that Lisa's doing. I pulled into the parking lot and saw Miranda!

I think it's September 13th.

A day which will live in infamy. Or outfamy.

Oh I think once you've grapevined on stage, it's 'outfamy'

Tell you what, I won't go see this if you won't go see me emcee the "Cabaret de Lame"...

Lisa's very good, but I never had a talent for the "smile like you're dying" type choreography...Just not my style.

Or you could gain miraculous tendinitus in your ankle. Or hit on the choreographer. Claim motional dyslexia? Say your agent said you couldnt? Be abducted by aliens promply on time every night?

Like I said, I'm fond of the woman who asked me to do a song with her, so I can't back out. It's just funny being the only non-musical theatre type there. Everyone else knew all the words to every song in "Parade", including alternative melodies from different versions.....Ugh.

I was like, "Got any Shakespeare? THAT I understand!"
