Cooper: Diane, last night I dreamed I was eating a large, tasteless gumdrop, and awoke to discover I was chewing on one of my foam disposable earplugs. Perhaps I should consider moderating my nighttime coffee consumption.

11/04/2006: "Theater"


Today I went to my first rehearsal for "The Nutcracker". Yep, just like last year. I believe it was the 7th week of rehearsals. Of course, as I'm not doing any of that serious dancing (like, ballet) I wasn't needed for all the earlier rehearsals. They did slip me into a tiny bit of dancing, like 2 or 3 times my tiny bit last year. But still, it's like the kind of dancing I've had to do in musicals, not the kind the "dancers" do in "The Nutcracker" -- in this case, tap, modern, and ballet. I'm going to be Godfather Drosselmeyer again. 2 years in a row. I guess that makes it a tradition. For me and for the Round Lake Area Park District Dance Studio & Community Theater.

In the meantime, "All In The Timing" opens this Friday at the Jack Benny Center, so I should probably concentrate on those lines. That will be show #17. And thanks to "The Nutcracker" I have once again managed to fit in 6 shows in the calendar year.
