Thank you, Mr Herman for the many, many nights of sheer, unadulterated pleasure in the theatre. There is nothing quite like a Jerry Herman score to get your foot tapping and chase away the doldrums. I do wish Encores! would stage MILK AND HONEY, as I've never seen it on stage and I'm very fond of the score. Hard to believe a 30 year-old could write such poignant songs for a middle-aged couple.

And as someone who's been openly living with HIV for almost 30 years, you are an inspiration, and the living embodiment of your song "I'll Be Here Tomorrow".

Lifting a glass in your honor!
