Ryan, my mom's fine, thanks for asking. I visited her yesterday. She's fine when she lies down but obviously is in pain when she walks. She's very happy with her smaller stomach. I think we can bring her home tomorrow.
And no one misses the Gerard spear...though I won't hurt you too bad since you at least got his name right this time :-P
Don't get me wrong, I love Howard, but the stage and screen are two very different mediums. Look at Julia Roberts. She's great in movies, but people don't think she's right for the stage. The two require different things--you're so much closer in a film. I'm not saying you can never compare casts, but they need different casts for different mediums. I still say Gerry did an amazing job of conveying all the different emotions and such in the close-up environment, which is pretty difficult.
Anyone planning to see Yazbek's new show Burleigh Grimes at Dodger Stages?
Dabruzzo fan, do you know about pastdated tickets? Keep your stubs from the performance you missed. Then call the box office the day you would like to go. Ask them if they're doing pastdated tickets for tonight/today's performance. I think you need to call after 11, though each theatre might differ. If they are, you'll be able to go with your unused ticket stubs. They'll give you the best seats available. You should be good for any day at DRS, they only don't do it if they're soldout.
I have a battle wound from softball. I scored by uhh...sliding head-first into home plate. Or I fell down, and got a really bloody knee...same difference.
Sarah, hope your flight home went well and you're doing okay. It was a ball, it was a blast, it was a shame it couldn't last
I was soo happy with the Tonys, especially for La Chanze. The dress rehearsal was awesome. They had stand ins for some presenters and all the winners and they got to make fake acceptance speeches. I wanted to do that. The best was this skinny white guy who pretended to be James Earl Jones. We liked him better.
I think I dreamt instead of Sherie coming back, that Sarah Jessica Parker was taking over for Rachel York...weird.
Tomorrow shall be sad. I love Sherie, but will miss Rachel.

"If there was a Mount Rushmore for Broadway scores, "West Side Story" would be front and center. It snaps, it crackles it pops! It surges with a roar, its energy and sheer life undiminished by the years" - NYPost reviewer Elisabeth Vincentelli
