Remember Kiddies....It isOnly 61 Days Until Halloween.....!!!!


                               Yes good viewers .... Time is rapidly  going By......

                All Hallows Evening will Soon be upon Us again.....Kiddies....!!!!!
 
                                                      Remember to be "Safe"......
 

 

 

                                                   Sam says"Remember the Rules Kiddies"....

Hello Good People .....


                  As we said ... We got to attend a performance of Sweeney Todd last Night.....!!!!
This talented small Performance Troupe gave a great performance.... (as  the  flyer states it was a "Shadowcast Production"...the set consisted of just the minimal amount of props... thus even more acting from these wonderful actors....
         Here is Mr. Todd (Chris Helms) and "the Pie Lady"  (Mona Bailey) singing "Little Priest..."
The small production was held at the community building of the place where this county's "Halloween Corn Maze" is held each year....
as you can see .... a rather "rural"  theater setting... So I was free to move about to view the actors scenes from many different angles
             That is me to the right .... totally engrossed in their performance of the song "Little Priest"
                           During this song ...we found ourself quietly singing along.....
They had the Movie itself showing on a screen while they re-created each of the scenes in the film....
                          Here is the contest against "Pirelli" ( Braiden Hanibal)

                    And here we have Mr. Todd stuffing Pirreli's body into a container...
A very enjoyable night for Stacey Kiddies.... We actually had "Fun"... and that does Not happen very often....and the performers were such wonderful and talented people...!!!
Due to a "last minute" change ...One poor guy  ( Who is also a talented musician) Had to play the part of "Joanna" ( Zak Russell) with the "Judge" ( Nick Sweet).... on a side note ... Due to a couple of the actors not being able to attend ....... the part of the Judge's henchman "the Beetle" was done by a puppet
....!!! You see the Troupe-Leader (Chris Helms ) is an expert at making "Muppet style puppets.... )
And most of Sweeney's "victims" were puppets as well... All in all it was very enjoyable...!!!
The only actual "Blood" was poor Sweeney himself....
The rest of the cast were .... Lucy , the Beggar Lady played by Avalon Rose Hanibal....
                And a Great job she did ...even her "creepy graceful movements"...
                                       Toby.... as played by Kelsey Millett
                                And as Joanna's "True love"....Danny Ruhland....
                                 A Great performance and Great People as well

We Had a Great Time....!!!!

                                  
               This was a smaller production performed by a rather talented "Performance Group"....
                          
                        The Lady who was Miss Lovett,.... was very good and has a nice singing voice.....
 
                                    They even had the collector's Razors and box as props....!!!
                      
                                         And a great performance of the song "My Friends"....!!!

               This is one of the few times that we get to get out of this House and Do Something....
They are supposed to E-Mail us some pictures from this show.... So another post of this great night will be done soon.... Later Kiddies

Hello Kiddies..... a"Special" Treat for Stacey.....

                                    
                    Friends have (at the "last moment" ) invited Stacey to attend a "Play"...!!!!
                      
                                                              Not just "any Play"......
                        
                           Sweeney Todd..... One of my favorite Charters of all time ...!!!!

                         Hope that the actor who portrays "Mr.Todd" is up to the Task....
                        
                  And really looking forward to a "Live" performance  of "Little Priest....!!!!
                                          Later Kiddies.....!!!! ....off to visit Victorian Fleet Street.....

Sorry Kiddies ... Our Days are a Bit Screwed Up....


                                Difficulties in thinking clearly of late......
                         Way too much on our mind lately .... and very little of it "good".....
          
                                        about to have a couple cups of Coffee....
I will tell you good viewers later why we had so much trouble in fixing my coffee.... ( That is why it is 2:00pm before we get any...)

It is Now Wendsday Evening.....


We received an E-Mail from a childhood friend that we have not heard from in 40 years ....!!!!
He too once lived in this miserable little town....


                                                 That at least lifted our spirits.....
 
                         He even sent us a partial "List" of some of his favorite songs.....
                     So we thought that we would post a few of them for your enjoyment.....
 
                                               He also enjoys the Guns-n-Roses remake.....

                                            These are just a few of the Songs that he listed.....
Just wanted to say to you that it was really Great to have heard from you after all these years....
