Alicia - The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Blogger

I regret my minimal posts of late (and my minimal comments). I am knee-deep in Damn Yankee waters and am about to move into waist-high waters. We pretty much have a 4-hour rehearsal, 5 times a week until the show opens on June 22nd. Unfortunately, with a set number of hours in the day, something's gotta give and the luxury of blogging is one of them.

The show promises to be a lot of fun but it certainly makes me long for my college days, when the hours not spoken for by rehearsal were spent in a classroom. And I think that might have amounted to 5 or 6 hours a day. Oh, yeah, I was 12 years younger, too. My husband is one of the ballplayers and he has spent several nights dancing, quite rigorously... so I can't complain too much! I'd probably keel over and die...

Needless to say, the spare moments are few and far between... But I'm still here and the film projects are simmering on the back burner. If only every day were 30 hours long, right?

If any of you are in the area and would like to see a quality production of Damn Yankees, please do come by. Musicals at Richter is set beneath the stars in a lovely, New England setting that was actually referenced erroneously in "The Baby Shower" episode of Seinfeld. For further information and tickets, go to the Musicals At Richter site. You can dine locally or bring a bottle of wine and a picnic to enjoy on the lawn. And, if you're lucky, you might see me there, too!

Here is a picture of our hapless, albeit determined Washington Senators (minus a couple unable to attend photo call):

PLAY BALL!
