Hey Friends of Mine!

As many of you know, I've been ridiculously busy, going crazy, having aneurysms and whatnot. It's all coming to a head this weekend, and I wanted to let you know the details, shenanigans and what-have-yous.

Ready? GO!

=====Come see "Proof", by David Auburn======

[The story of a troubled young woman who has spent years caring for her brilliant, but unstable father, a famous mathematician. She deals with her father's death, the return of her estranged sister, and the attentions of one of her late father's students, as well as the discovery of a mysterious notebook.]

High-falutin' drama, folks. This is the show I have stage managed, and helped put together.

call 773.442.4274 to make reservations. Preview night is free. Tickets are $8 - $10. cash only.

=====Come see "Bones, Mummies and Tomb Raiders", by Noel Muenzer=====

[A childrens' show, spoofing the amazing "Indiana Jones" movies, in a far less amazing way. Integrating a 60-piece orchestra, audience participation and theater, the Imagination Symphony strives to introduce classical music to children of all ages.]

Just look at what people said about the last show!
"That was kinda cool. I guess." --Marty Harbinger

"I didn't really get it, but there were parts that made me laugh." --Sheila Snootengrouse

"YAAAAAAYYYYAAAYYYYAAAAAAAYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!" --Several Small Children

This is a show I'm acting in, and it is only ONE day. Come see it. It'll be dumb.

I'm the Olive Oyl-sidekick-damsel-in-distress character. Come watch me be a cartoon. It'll be stupid.
Promise.

========= COME TO THE MUSIC BOX!!! =============

This last juicy tidbit of event-goodness involves the kind of fun you can't miss.

Come watch my car get towed away, for the last time EVER. Yes, Jamie. THAT car. I'm done with her. The old girl is being put out to pasture, but what a send-off will we be giving her!

HOW MUCH FUN DOES THIS SOUND LIKE?!?!?! I would loveloveloooove to have you there. This is a really big deal for me, seeing as how most of the funny/tragic stories I tell you have to do with my car. I love her the way some of you love your pets or your mothers. For real.

So, that's the weekend, kids. I hope to see you there (oh, anywhere. take your pick.)

Mad love to you all. ~s.
