Maybe I shouldn't have done it, but, I just bought a ticket to see The Golden Age at the Kennedy Center for the March 12th showing. That's a Friday, so it is one less Friday I have to see Orestes. But, it was Jeffrey Carlson and Marc Kudisch! I mean, I attempted to stalk Marc Kudisch by not seeing him but getting all the playbills of shows he ( Read more... )

...I must be thinking of Sam Ludwig as Martin and James Gardiner as Crostini. Because they are comic gold. Or something like. Jess and I went to see Matt Conner's children show, Martin: The King of Pizza on Saturday night. Despite crazy traffic on the beltway (I was rushing there after work), we managed to get there with plenty of time to spare ( Read more... )

Egads. It's been a long, long while since I last went shopping for ballet clothes.

It's so odd. I've been checking amazon every once and a while to see if there is a ghost of a chance that my favorite version of A Little Princess is going to be released on DVD. Guess what I found tonight? And it's actually already been released ( Read more... )

Ahhh!!! The return of stick figure stories. This one is dedicated to mmebahorel. It attempts to explain just how Feuilly ended up a fanmaking orphan in Paris. One with a curious knowledge of guns. Who knows if it will work or even make sense! Hope you like it Jess!

( And so our tragedy begins... )

I just had a Hobnob.

Let's see if I keel over and die during ballet tonight!
