Yea for Shannon! Yea for boys!


It was Shannon's birthday on the 29th, So Jane and I busted out the yummy dessert The ricotta cookies with fruit topping were a big hit! And I think we did Shannon proud, ending the night with a round of happy birthday.
Tiffany really is singing and raising her mallet jovially, not about to take out Laura, so she can go on as Alais, really.

And what birthday would be complete without a little topless man dance. Ah theatre. Chris is pretty hot too.


No really, you are adorable Chris. I have been lucky to work one other show with Chris. He is a really amazing actor. In this show, he plays an extreme middle child syndrome prince. Never enough love and always plotting his revenge for it.



It can be very exhausting. he he. We have a few attractive boys in this cast.

Michael Fagan has a male model thing going on, perfect for our French Prince. Although sometimes he looks more like a muppet. he he. As I have gotten to know him, I can't believe how silly and funny he is. It's great riding the train with him. Oh and great book reccomendations!Then there is Rob. That's always how he introduces himself. Largely, I think, because his last name is Belushi. Yes of those Belushi's. His dad is Jim. He is very funny in a boy kind of way (lots of poop). I like him better like this. Asleep. He is awfully attached to his phone...
Oh don't worry kid, I do like you a lot when you are being a normal chill person. I've just never been into boy humor. Can't stand those movies y'all love. And he is a cutie.

Never underestimate the power of being cute, I always say. I guess he's recently lost some weight. Not sure he really knows how good looking he is. Oh well. I'm not going to tell him.
Oh and he's great as the pouty youngest son John. The charecters did exist in history. John is Little John, who was king during the time of Robin Hood, who is probably just a ledgend.
This deer in the foreground is Lea Coco. Great name huh? He is dating one of my favorite actresses, Audrey. He's the one that commissioned the sweater for his girl. She loved it by the way.
He plays the eldest son, the warrior/poet. That would be Richard the Lionheart, who was fighting the crusades while his brother, John stole his throne. And he's gay, in the show. Great on stage kiss between him and Michael Fagan.
Lea is very earthy and likes to cook, so he is always looking for advise on the subject. So we always have something to talk about. He also reads a lot. And watches good movies, so I have enjoys reccomendations from him too.

It's so nice when we have a cast that is so pleasant and interesting. Sure they are young and once in a group descend into poop jokes, but if you can just get them alone...I've had some good conversations with these guys. I'm glad I have gotten to do this show with them. Thanks guys.
