What a treat it was to perform with such stellar talent (and kind people!) at the Guthrie's 50th Anniversary Fete concert, Behold! So great to see T.R. Knight and Peter Michael Goetz, and to meet and work with Brian D'Arcy James (a truly lovely and down-to-earth soul, besides being a talented performer.) Whoopi Goldberg made a fly-by appearance, and Peter Flynn as our fearless leader/director was an utter delight. (This is the kind of direector that helps performers feel truly joyful and proud to practice our craft.)
Lombardi rehearsals are already underway, and we leave town this Sunday for Alexandria, MN, ready to rock and roll another run of this fantastic play. We welcome Matt Rein to our insanity - he is doing a fantastic job taking over the role of Jim Taylor! I truly love, love, love this amazing cast and crew (fun from start to finish), and I'm looking forward to a festive week at summer camp! (For those who aren't familiar with Theatre L'Homme Dieu, it's worth a look. Pontoons, bonfires, cabins, and s'mores will abound.)
I will finish that run on Sunday, July 14, only to take off July 15 for Florida! Delray Beach should prove to be a fantastic time with Beyond the Rainbow -- I've heard the accommodations are beautiful, we'll be very near the beach, and Arts Garage is an intimate, cabaret-esque space which is exciting to all of us as we bring this very intimate and up-close look at Judy Garland literally into the laps of our audiences there!
I'll sign off with a few pictures of the Gala, as well as our June Rainbow tour -- it's a good summer so far!
