BK (and anyone else who's interested), I can't remember if it's been posted (more than likely it has), but here's the video of Maria Friedman's first London production:

There are a lot less close-ups.

We eat lots of chicken here. It can be prepared so many ways

I have been ill since Friday.

vixmom · « **Reply #6 on:** February 17, 2026, 03:44:44 AM »

I thought it was just a cold but I seem to be getting worse instead of better

The home covid test came back negative

But this morning my throat is so painful it hurts to swallow.

vixmom · « **Reply #9 on:** February 17, 2026, 03:46:44 AM »

I think I'll have to see the urgent care this morning

Good morning.

Laura · « **Reply #11 on:** February 17, 2026, 03:57:09 AM »

So sorry to hear you're sick, Vixmom. These viruses going around are nasty.

Laura · « **Reply #12 on:** February 17, 2026, 03:58:21 AM »

We were required to wear masks at the doctor's office yesterday. I told the receptionist thank you for that. I'm sure she was getting a lot of complaints. She said she was.

TOD: Skip's Fried Chicken.

Laura · « **Reply #14 on:** February 17, 2026, 04:01:34 AM »

I've never had it, but it's highly recommended.

Laura · « **Reply #15 on:** February 17, 2026, 04:02:56 AM »

We did get a little rain overnight. Like maybe around a tenth of an inch.

Good morning, all.

John G. · « **Reply #17 on:** February 17, 2026, 04:19:42 AM »

The only way I remember Mom fixing chicken was fried. It was delicious.

John G. · « **Reply #18 on:** February 17, 2026, 04:20:05 AM »

Must get ready for work.

I went to the theeder when that was presented as a Fathom event. Fun evening, but the image on the big screen was horrible. Dim and low-rez. It looked like they were projecting a DVD. Those were the bad old days of Fathom, I'm given to understand they do better now, overall.

As a good 1950s Ohioan, I grew up eating fried chicken on Sunday -- at home, at my relative's, at friends' places. It was what you did.

Home cooked fried chicken (and restaurant fried chicken when we'd eat out on Sunday) is very likely the only chicken I knew in my early years, and I loved it. I have early memories of it sizzling in the frying pan on the stove at my paternal grandmother's apartment in Columbus, and later in our own electric skillet. I'll bet that's what those electric skillets were used for almost exclusively then, at least in my family.

I have yet to get to The Golden Lamb in beautiful SW Ohio, and possibly even more shameful, I've never had Roscoe's in L.A.

Depraved on account of I'm deprived.

Fried chicken.

Jrand75 · « **Reply #24 on:** February 17, 2026, 05:09:53 AM »

I shall be on the way to the getting place in a bit.

Jrand75 · « **Reply #25 on:** February 17, 2026, 05:10:06 AM »

I enjoyed the notes.

Jrand75 · « **Reply #26 on:** February 17, 2026, 05:10:26 AM »

I'm not sure about seeing the DVD - but we shall see.

Skip thanks you for the mention!

These days, for me, he makes it more with chicken tenders and chicken cutlets, but same great taste!

From BK's notes today:
"There was total silence in the booth, including Mr. Tunick. That is, until Mr. Sondheim looked up from his New York Times and said, “Bruce is right.” Tunick went in and added it, and that’s what we used and I guess it’s now fixed in this orchestration."

Fabulous story, BK!
