I received several flyers this weekend. One is called Broadway in
Concert with KISS ME KATE, THE MUSIC MAN, and PORGY AND BESS with the Symphony
Silicon Valley. Season tickets range in price from $99.00 to $213.00. Will
people pay that for a show in concert? Maybe PORGY AND BESS??? They will be
performed in the California Theater. For questions, call 286-2600 X23.

Two flyers announcing THE PRODUCERS. First up is at Stage One which
opens on July 10. The other is at Foothill College and that opens on July 24.
Will anyone be left to see SBMT's production in September? I am sure
there will be lots of comparisons. I have heard lots of good things about SPAMALOT now playing in SF until
July. I hope to get up there to see it. WIZARD OF OZ opens mid July in Santa Cruz. Mindy Pedlar plays Glinda
and Auntie Em. Stage One in Newark is having a special show on Saturday night staring
Seth Rudetsky. Tickets are on Goldstar. Starts at 8:00. He is also doing
a master class on Saturday during the day. Check his website at

Saturday afternoon and Sunday night. Go to www.poptimists.com for complete

I did catch ALADDIN with the Roberta Jones Junior Theater. Very cute
and fun to see the small children experiencing theater for the first time.

Maybe I will do a movie day today and catch up. In the meantime, I will
see you 'On Down the Road!"
