[The Grovers Corners Yenta2]

Surgery! On April 20, I will make a return apearrance in the OR at my local hospital. Wearing a saucy little gown that barely covers my tuchas, I will delight audiences while under the influence of anesthesia. Co-starring in this production will be Dr. Paul T., and a bevy of nurses and technicians in what should me a most memorable performance of epic proportions. Stay tuned for the revgiews that will be guaranteed to knock your socks off! { no, this isnt weight loss surgery yet, but a step to correct something so I can have it.}

Thanks Popular. I didnt want to post one of those PRAY FOR ME THREADS. If I can't use humor, what good am I?

I hate revivals where they think they can tinker with the original book!

The only adult surgery in my life was five years ago and a monumental pain (no pun). I had to have herniated c-spine discs removed. That isn't the point.

BUT to change my dressing right before discharge came the dreamiest, hunkiest (and straightest) resident from Central Casting as ever was. He had this long blond chest hair peeking over the V of his scrubs, and it was all I could do not to reach out and see if it felt as downy as it looked.

Take your pleasures where they bloom. Even in the local hospital.

Best of luck and, as odd as it sounds, have fun!

Craig, that was so funny! Thanks for making me laugh.

I think we should sent Michael Dale to review this opus!

[Dollypop]

Posted: 4/18/06 at 4:36pm

All kidding aside Yenta, you will arrange with a friend to send a note to one of us here at BWW about the success of your operation, won't you? The note can then be posted on one of the message boards so we'll all be aware of your progress.

Yenta, the costumes may be bland but I hear the lighting is wonderful.

Best wishes.

I've heard the budget for this new production is completely overblown. I think the set and props alone are grossly overdone. I can only hope that the acoustics are really bad so you can't be heard!

I pray for top rate direction and even more skilled choreography!

Can we bring our drinks into the theatre?
Seriously, I hope it goes well. And as Dolly said, please find a way to let us know how you are even if you will be out of it for a while, okay?

Will you be signing at the door?

How early before the production will you be there? Can I snap a photo of you before?

Is there an intermission?

Is this anything like Wicked?

What kind of merchandising will be available?

Will there be a cast album?

If you can't make it, who's your understudy?

How long is the show?

Is the show suitable for all ages?

Are any of the views obstructed?

Is this a final engagement - or do you expect to be extended with several more performances?

Craig my dear......you asked for it! I will not be signing at the door because I have to be there at 6:15 am and not allowed to have breakfast or even coffee. This ensures that I will not be in a good mood. You may however snap my photo as it will be a good laugh. I am not planning on an intermission as the OR schedule is very busy and we must move along. The only thing that will make this remotely close to WICKED is my mood due to the fact that I will not have had coffee. However, as soon as that IV goes in and I am sedated, I will surely sing just about anything. I will be auctioning off my johnny gown to the highest bidder so that Dolly Pop can be put in a decent old age home. Naurually there can't be an understudy because I am so unique. There just isn't another actress who can even compare to my talents. The will show take about an hour depending on how much my doctor drank the night before. The show is only suitable for adults because............how do I put this delicately? OK, you are all my friends so I can tell you. I am having collagen implanted in my bladder because of a diabetes/neuropathy problem. Yes, this does constitute actual plastic surgery and I will be elevated to a Jewish American Princess in staure. However, I don't intend to show anyone. My Urogynecologist will have the best view in the house. But heck, after all that money he spent on Med school, he certainly deserves it. I am not planning on an return engagement , but if I have to at a later date I will. We all know the show must go on. It will hopefully be a a day surgery and I will recuperate at home with lots of chicken soup.

stop exciting me, yenta!

I'm guessing the event is sold out

It is SRO.

WOW! I think that is one of the nicest things that DP has EVER written!

Yenta, please keep us posted.

Here is wishing you a cute doctor, and handsome nurse, and a quick return home!

DollyPop does have a very nice and caring side to him. Especially after he has had a few drinks. When I am feeling better I will have to give him my speech on the Perils of Alcohol. Sad, terribly sad.

[AbbaRabbit]

break a leg (not literally of cource)

[Dollypop]

Posted: 4/18/06 at 7:01pm

You should have me present my Perils of Alcohol talk BEFORE your surgery. It's 6 hour slong and will certainly put you to sleep.

Seriously, can you give your rabbi (or someone else) Abba's e-mail address and then she can post it here.

My prayers are with you.

Thanks, DollyPop. I may very well be online by Friday as I have decided not to stay in the hospital unless I am not stable. Better off to have day surgery and recuperate at home.

[Dollypop]

Posted: 4/18/06 at 9:01pm

"I am not stable"

I'm not touching that line with a 10 foot pole (or Russian).

In keeping with the theme, I say, "Break a leg, Yenta!"

Seriously, I hope all goes amazingly well.

In boca al lupo!!

Yenta-
I won't even try and be witty after all of Craig's posts, darn him...
Just want you to know I'm wishing you the best and look forward to seeing the 'all is well' post.
