THE CHILDREN ARE GETTING OLDER

Today (Friday) I went to the theatre for a fix-up rehearsal from the understudy runthrough. I was surprised that there wasn't much to fix. It's almost like we're a completely different cast and were having too much fun on-stage today. We get one more rehearsal next week. And of course - the show has been extended until the 21st of August!! Go catch it while you can!!!

At night I went to see the San Carlos Children's Theatre production of You Can't Take It With You. It was a very cute production though a bit on the long side. It was great to see some of the kids who were in Oliver! with me last year (It was my first show in over three years!) - how much they grow in a year's time.

Even though at first the play seems like a perfect production for kids to do - I found it to be quite racy at times - for little kids, but then I am always appalled by what some of these children's theatre companies get away with - kids doing shows like Jesus Christ Superstar, Side Show, Kiss of the Spider Woman, & Urinetown!!

But who am I to judge - I quote the great Stevie Nicks: "The children are getting older, and I'm getting older too."
SO?!
