It's the day of the show, y'all...

Tonight, we'll welcome our first (and penultimate) audience to see our staged reading of Stop the World I Want To Get Off. Yesterday's rehearsal brought our first run-through of the show which went as well as can be expected in a down-and-dirty process like this. We get to the Alex Theatre in Glendale around noon. We'll run-through the show with our orchestra and then we'll dress up, take photos, and open the doors. At this time tomorrow, I'll have one official run of this beast of a show under my belt. I'm nervous, but I'm excited too. Here we go...


And briefly, here's today's sketch over at Squigs Knows His Lines. My goal on that page is to occasionally be current with my illustrations (to show my editorial capabilities I guess). If my topic net were cast a bit wider, I would have given a tip o' the hat to Taylor Swift and Beyonce regarding last night's VMAs incident with that butthead. But rather in Broadway circles, breaking news from yesterday was that Avenue Q had their big closing on Broadway BUT they're moving to New World Stages off-Broadway. I'm trying to figure out if other shows have made this move. It's sign of the times, but still encouraging that producers felt that the show was worth keeping open.

Well, I've got to get all my wheels going in the same direction (towards Glendale). Wish me "break a leg!" Take care, all! Peace and love.
