Congrats to both of you... I have a callback this weekend for Jacks Mother and the Stepmother. Years ago I may have been a witch or Bakers wife candidate, but now I am either the mean nasty to her step daughter mother or frazzled, nagging,"not beautiful" mother :(
Is it that art imitates life or life imitates art?
Oh well, such is life.

Congratulations! My wife and I have done a lot of shows together and love it. Way better than one partner sitting at home while the other is off at rehearsals.
Have fun with the show! And squti, good luck to you. My wife is really enjoying the depth of the characters that are available for "women of a particular age"! Edited by Eric.Brandt - 4/14/11 at 10:26am |

Yeah, pretty much since we started dating (almost 8 months ago) I've been tied up in professional productions rehearsing 6 nights a week. This is going to be WAY better.

Thanks Eric. I agree with your wife. Before I could NEVER get the comedic part, only the ingenue. But I guess I am funny now.
Good part is my, way more talented than me, teenage daughter has a call back for Little Red. We too have done several shows together and it is an assume experience. I've never performed with my husband, he's into sports. But he was the only man at his business conference that knew the musical theatre references mentioned during a presentation.
Rorgg, some of my best friends met in theatre and ended up marrying. Let us know how it goes.

Did ITW last year with a talented middle school school theater group on Long Island....no cuts or transpositions. It might not have been a "Beauty and the Beast" in the minds of the audience members but those kids are now connected to Sondheim in the most special way, and they learned so much!

ITW just started, but as a bass, I have to say... really, Stephen? High Ab for everyone? Really? Come now.
I've been pushing the upper edges of my range for a while now, so I can make it when the moon is in the 7th house and the barometric pressure is right, but some of the poor altos are just SOL. All the other men are tenors and baritones, but there's even squeaking from some of the baritones. Om the side of good news, I just heard the JC the next county over -- which has a gorgeous large theatre and open auditions -- is doing Sweeney next Summer. Also, my lovely and talented girlfriend and I were both called back for a professional production this winter. What's better than performing together? Getting paid for it. |

"JC"?
I do so wish that was a possibility in my little market! Maybe someday.... |
