I’m back in rehearsals, in fact tech and dress rehearsals begin tonight for Over the River and Through the Woods! It’s by the same playwright, Joe DiPietro, who wrote I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change. (Both shows have been Off-Broadway hits!!!) Above is an advance press photo: not the real thing (costumes, hair, the table, & set) taken, maybe, the second day of rehearsals?! So the show and characters look a little different. But when you have press and web deadlines you have to do with what you have!
Very fun show. Really heartwarming and hilarious. We alternate between big laughs and grabbing kleenex. Hmm. A concessions item: little packs of kleenex? Or $1.00 a tissue?
As a member of a very large, extended, three generations of family at every Christmas gathering — the play is a beautiful tribute to the love that crosses the generations, and the blessings we receive from our elders. Likewise, what blessings the elders receive from the from the younger ones’ energy and dreams. Really good stuff.
I’m outta here — to rehearsal…
