I saw Clarence Brown Theatre’s production of Guys and Dolls last night, and it made for a very pleasant evening. I particularly enjoyed the Hot Box scenes, as I thought the dancers were fabulous! If you’re in the Knoxville area, you have until April 27th to see the play. You can order [...]
Night at Clarence Brown Theatre
I saw a production of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol at Clarence Brown Theatre last night. I had seen the play there two years ago, but this was an entirely different adaptation. As you know, I’m quite the theatre geek. I see plays all the time, and it is rare to find [...]
Lonely Theatre Dude
Last night I saw the Clarence Brown Theatre’s production of Major Barbara by George Bernard Shaw. It’s the story of a Salvation Army Major and her father, who is a self-made millionaire through the sale of war munitions. At the heart of the play is a conflict between religion and money - namely, which one can save a man’s [...]
Happy Thought for 8/1/07
Anyone who reads my blog on a regular basis knows just how much I love the theatre. I’m especially excited this year, because I have season subscriptions to both Clarence Brown Theatre and Oak Ridge Playhouse.
I have two plays coming up this month - Honky Tonk Angels and A Few Good Men. I can’t wait!
It’s [...]

Weekly “link love” posts seem to be pretty popular around the blogosphere. Several of my friends, including Mike from Ordinary Folk, do weekly posts linking you to some of the cool things they have found over the previous week. Since I read a lot of blogs and find lots of cool things on [...]
Weekend Wrap-Up
It has been quite an eventful weekend.
Friday was my 35th birthday. I spent the evening at Oak Ridge Playhouse for their first play of the season - The Pajama Game. The musical comedy revolved around a love affair between the Sleep-Tite Pajama Factory’s new superintendent and the leader of the grievance committee. [...]

My good friend Barry is the Music Director for Erin Presbyterian’s production of Seussical, which runs from June 28 - July 1. Loving the theatre as I do (and loving Barry too!), I just can’t pass up the opportunity to see this musical! I’ll be attending the show on June 30th at 7:30 PM.
All you [...]

One of my biggest loves in life is theatre. I just renewed my season subscription to The Clarence Brown Theatre, and I am anxiously awaiting the first play. Here’s the lineup for the 2007-2008 season.
Honky Tonk Angels (Ted Swindley) - Three women following their dreams board a Greyhound bus bound for Nashville, trading in their [...]
Odds and Ends
I got back to Knoxville late Thursday night. Words cannot express how happy I am to be back home.
I’ve gotten so far behind on my school projects that I’ve spent most of this weekend playing catch up. Just a few more weeks until the semester ends! I have no idea what made [...]
