Marquee outside the Studio
Well the day had a pretty interesting start. Tim and I bought tickets for A Disappearing Number at the Barbican Theatre (Mark Skrade eat you heart out). He and I could not get tickets last year. Fortunately, they brought the play back this year because of its popularity. The day also began with someone jumping in front of the tube train at Earls Court which closed down the District Line for most of the day(it is the line we take to go to Wimbledon). Again, fortunately by the time the students were heading to the theatre the line opened up again with some delays.
The show went very well. We were all pretty psyched and it was good to have one show under our belt. The only glitch was the disco music in the bar downstairs kicked in at 10pm and our show runs until 10:15 or so. So Jonathan ran down stairs and had them turn the music down. However, I kind of like Radium Girls go Disco!!! Mike Charron and his daughter Kelsey arrive today as did Peter's mother and grandmother. Brother William arrives tomorrow.
Here are some photos from last night and the final dress....
