What's Up

So, since I've last posted, I've shaved my beard (goodbye Fiddler! goodbye Dream Sequence Bobble-heads! good-bye trying to get in bed before midnight! goodbye great friends and a great show!), took students to Legally Blonde, Our Town and State Drama Festival (the play I directed got Straight Superiors), helped Millie turn 5 years old, participated in a Princess Themed Party, went to Disneyland over Spring Break, got previously mentioned beard vomited on by a sick Ellis at Disneyland, will go to Carl's Jr. for Ellis's 3rd birthday tomorrow (she requested the Twinkle Twinkle Star restaurant) and am finally getting caught up on Netflix movies and DVR items.

In the midst of all of this, I've been directing (and accompanying) my MDT class in the musical Lucky Stiff. It performs this weekend (Fri. April 30, Sat. May 1st and Mon. May 3rd) at 7:00pm on the RHS Stage (seating is limited to 200). Shows are at 7:00pm except for a special 2:00pm matinee on Saturday. For extra fun, I double cast everyone in the show- everyone performs in each show, but they play different parts (what was a thinking). There is the Friday night/Saturday night cast and the Saturday matinee/Monday night cast. Come see both! This musical comedy involves a dead uncle in a wheelchair, stolen diamonds, a dog home in New Jersey and a kickline done in blacklight. Millie proclaims this to be a much better musical than Fiddler on the Roof. So, come watch me get carpel tunnel by playing for the entire show this weekend! It'll be fun. (And it's only $6.00).
