Double show Sunday

Today I am seeing The Divine Sisters at the SoHo Playhouse with Brian Coffey, good friend and mortal enemy from Stagedoor. Then heading to meet with the ever charming James Parenti about a possible Hamlet project before heading to the invited dress rehearsal of Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson.

I guess that means I should shower....

7:32 Audition Announcement

7:32
a musical
Book and Lyrics by KT Peterson
Music by KT Peterson and Cedric Lyles

7:32 is the passion of the Ashtabula Disaster—the railroad-bridge accident that rattled 1876 America and the scandal that followed surrounding the bridge’s Chief Engineer, Charles Collins. Steeped in the sweat of railroad men (and the women who love them), this soul-soaked ride through folk, bluegrass, and blues stares down the early and gritty world of big business, and the seemingly endless human desire for bigger and better, no matter the cost.

Rehearsals starting October 11th, performances on October 23rd and 24th at The Bridge Theater

Auditions will be held on Saturday September 25 from 4pm-8pm and Sunday September 26 11am-1pm at Shelter Studios. Prepare two contrasting 16 bars- classical and contemporary

Thought a Day

I've been hearing about these "Thought, idea, inspiration, photos, random thing, etc" a day for a year.
That seems like a lot. I'm gonna give it a go. My goal: to write something everyday. This can be lame, awesome, or somewhere in between.

But since I already did one yesterday and that was September 1st I figure I will continue on until I forget.

Today I:
-Went to The Drama League to look at resumes for Internships
-Mailed a box of stuff home
-Watched Master Chef
-Arranged a dinner meeting with the lovely KT for tomorrow evening
-and am now heading to see MEMPHIS with Roger Danforth and the Fall Fellows

Thought: I'm looking forward to seeing MEMPHIS

This time for me!!!!

Is there anything better than watching great legends of stage perform "Roses Turn"? I think not.
Inspiring x100000

Nothing like some musical theatre to accompany my cleaning.


I remember watching the Tony awards in 2003 when Bernadette did this song. I was still in high school, never been to New York, never seen a Broadway show (or any show outside of Michigan for that matter) and I just sat there stunned. For me in that moment there was nothing more amazing than watching her perform that song, I cried.

When I finally made it to NYC I was lucky to see Patti play Rose in the Revival and at Encores. Another inspiring performance.

Anyways, that's all, inspiring women kicking some ass.
