The new year brings fun and a loss of fur

I forgot to mention that Tuesday was even more crazy. CRYSTAL had some sort of infection, so we had a white and tiny Pilar. Sarah Jenkins rocked it out. But next to Alex, who is an Amazonian in heels, it was high comedy.


So new years was a blast!!! We had a late show at 830 and then hightailed it into the HALL OF NATIONS for champagne and the countdown. There were bands at either end of the hall jamming out up until the 10 SECOND COUNTDOWN and then after. As we were all then heading to another afterparty, I got in a horn blowing contest with some intoxicated woman, and it soon looked like a scene from PLANET EARTH between two geese fighting for breeding ground. She chased me around the HALL OF NATIONS for 20 minutes. First she would blow her horn and then i would blow mine back at her and run behind a pillar. The security guards just laughed. It was also nice to hang with Larry and Nell and the infamous Justin Huff from TELSEY & CO.

Here is a small conundrum that has effected our tour this week as well as the MARGOT FANDANGO.

China, who pays Rufus, has gotten too comfortable. Back when we were in Schenectady i think, or maybe it was Hartford.......anyway, she started exhibiting some odd behavior. We already have a problem because most of the people that deal with the dogs are actually allergic( which is pseudo ironic and our union is the only one that doesn't compensate for dealing with animals---which is another battle for another day). 

But its been such a problem that  "dog trainer to the stars" came in for the end of this week

and as of last night, Nellie has been permanently promoted to HEAD RUFUS. We dont know what will happen with China. SO, with Roxie on all the time now and Nellie-------almost any cast member possible has now been on stage--spare some secondary covers and EMMETTS and CALLAHANS.

All this weekend ALEX has personal days.....so Lauren is on for MARGOT----and it should be a riot. Here is to a 4 show weekend......
