My boss will be there, as my firm has a table. He was trying to get me an extra ticket.

She's in very good company so we'll just have to wait and see.

Her catagory is Outstanding Lead Actress, Non-Resident Production and she's up against Kendra, Vanessa Redgrave, Keala Settle, and Amy Ziff.

She's the reason I'm interested in the awards this year but there are a lot of other catagories to watch and follow. Am I to understand that these are the equivalent to the DC Tony's? I'm actually not too familiar with these awards.

I'm thrilled that IAMOW won. Brilliance, to say the absolute least.

Timote ~ I never got to see IAMOW but a few weeks ago we had Rip Taylor on the show I was working on. He was passing out those pearl necklaces with the show's name on it. He told me he put some money behind that show and was really proud of it! He is a huge theater fan... showed me a picture of him and Liza that he kept in his purse (yes, he has a purse). Was making plans to see Dame Edna here... so adorable!

Congradulations to Signature's Urinetown! It almost won all the
awards in musical categories. Well, well deserved!

I specially congradulate to Joe Calarco (director),Stephen F. Schmidt(Officer Lockstock),Will Gartshore (Bobby Strong ) and Erin Driscoll (Hope Gladwell).

Also congradulate to Patrick Page for his outstanding performance as Iago in Shakespear Theatre's Othello.

God, I feel so lucky to catch these two shows.

So proud of Stephanie! She deserved it! Truly!

What is your dream role? My dream role would be to be myself. To be performing at the Hollywood Bowl and to have an audience there just to see me, as Stephanie. They are there because they like what I do as a singer, an artist and a person (the last being the most important). I enjoy escaping and portraying other characters, but to be accepted and wanted as yourself... that's amazing! --Stephanie J. Block Just one of the many reasons I admire and respect Stephanie!!
