Break-a-leg in Winona, Oxford, and other things

All of us here want to wish Judy, Kit, Lisa, and the cast and crew of Bus Stop best of luck on the show...our thoughts are with you as you open! Break-a-leg!

Tim Markus spent four days with us. He just got off of stage managing a tour of the opera, Porgy and Bess in Germany! He got to see 7 shows while here and I believe he beat JC's record of number of London shows seen....!!!! He and I went to see the musical, Zorro which was fantastic...the music was by the Gypsy Kings. It was very humorous, great choreography and a lot of fun! Better than I thought. He ended his trip by seeing War Horse at the National which we will be seeing Nov. 20th...waiting in line at 8am paid off!

We went to Oxford today. Had great weather! Classes are going well. I am enjoying teaching 22 British students at Rose Bruford College where our students take acting class with Tony James which they are really enjoying. We are seeing Kenneth Branagh in Ivanov tomorrow afternoon and Monday Someone to Watch Over Me at the fringe theatre, Baron's Court right down the street from the student flats! Also venturing into Camden Town tomorrow morning to look for props and costumes pieces. Rehearsals are going well at the Drill Hall....

Will post more pictures and videos (Shannon and Danielle punting in Oxford!!!!) Boy can those girls navagate a boat!!!! hahahaha

Again break-a-leg Bus Stop cast and crew and Brother William congratulations!!!!
