Well, I'm opening tonight as a slightly long-in-the-tooth Father Flynn in "Doubt."  It's probably one of the most difficult roles I've ever had, and it's a really good cast so I'm excited to see how it goes. http://www.dnronline.com/skyline_details.php?AID=15776&CHID=41&sub=Feature - And we got a pretty good write up in the local paper.

She even spelt your name right Jay! Not the usual waffle one gets from a local 'Rag' crit/reviewer, she even included interviews?
Crickey mate it's fairdinkum ripah bonza cobbah!
I'd certainly frame that one!
Your groups performance obviously hit the right keys with the reviewer - & pressed the right buttons with the play!

| Yes, she was really interested and even borrowed a copy of the play to read before she wrote the article which has never happened before. She hadn't actually seen a performance but she did see us perform excerpts beforehand at a local chain bookstore (Barnes and Noble--don't know if you've got them Down Under) That turned out to be a great promotion for us, I guess I should put that on another thread. |

Yes my son I think should take out shares in 'B&N', as he spent more than enough in there, to buy the place.
Cultivate this reviewer, even if you have to give her life membership or marry her - well offer a plumb part in a show at lest!
She is unique!
