A Christmas Carol closes today.  It's been a nice run and I'm happy with most of how it turned out.  Of course, we've learned a lot from last year and probably even more this year for next year.  I really like Alan Menken's score, it's got some wonderful moments.  I'll be looking forward to putting it away tonight, but also looking forward to taking it out next September.   However, I have told the producer that I won't do the show if we cast more than 60.  There are 86 people in the cast this year, 20+ of which are dead weight, and that's being nice.  There are traditions, politics and the like that always seem to get the cast up to the 80's and beyond.  Hopefully, it's something they will learn this year.

My favorite quote of the process this year was during "Mr. Fezziwig's Annual Christmas Ball" scene. the choreographer was staging something and looked up on the stage and said, very seriously, "Ok, I need a crowd".  Everyone is on stage at the time, of course, all 86 of them.  Oy and vey.

DR Laura, the photos are lovely.  I know my eyesight isn’t great, still if there is snow in the one photo I would see it.  

Eye saving vibes for the little boy.

Jose - The Lincoln Center member tickets are $53 (50 plus servcie charge).  Not sure how much of a discount that is from regular price, but I assume I could order one for either Glorious Ones or Cymebeline and have it left in your name, if you wanted.

Well, DR JRand57, I hope that Christmas is kind to you.  You certainly never exhibit the raging erotomania of our DR MBarnum, so I had no idea!

There ain't no Santy Claus.  ;D

Uh oh.....dream ballet sequence coming up.  Dick Powell says he is 36, but he certainly looks all of his 51 years in this part of the movie.

Hmm...  Thanks for the offer, DR FJL.  Would you like me to repay you in Cash or Levain Cookies?

Although, I was also thinking of heading down to join LCT for $50, then get a ticket for $50 - which would still be cheaper than the full price one.

Well... It looks like I'll be staying put for just a little bit here at the apartment.  "Something" just happened upstairs, and someone may need someone to talk to... :-\

Thanks for the vibes...  I'm heating up a cup of chili right now for my lunch... And if "someone" doesn't come downstairs by the time I finish my lunch, I think it's best that I just leave the apartment for a while, give him some space.

The CGI chipmunk WAS very well done, but it reminded me of my one other little nitpick about Enchanted - the two bathroom jokes were BAD - the boots being peed on and the scared chipmunk dropping a poop.  Really unnecessary and wrong, tone-wise, if you ask me.  But, again, very minor stuff.

I had a pretty good night's sleep but am groggy.  Perhaps I'll go jump in the shower or maybe skip in the show.  But skip is in NY and jump is here.

I'm sincerely hoping that Sweeney is better than Hairspray - I think whether I like it or not, it will be a LITTLE better simply because Mr. Burton is a real filmmaker who understands the medium, at least.

Skip was indeed skipping in the snow earlier - well, sort of.

Good Afternoon!

DR MBarnum - So... "sordid" - is that a good thing or a bad thing?

For me and my neighbor, it was a good thing...for my neighbor's wife...not so much, probably.
