Whaaaa?

No posts since January? For shame! What can I say, though? It's been busy over here at City Lights. Dead Man Walking has been going great and getting rave reviews. Therefore, ticket orders have been coming in by the bushel.

Bushel.

And I didn't even know ticket orders could come in the form of bushels! Oh the wondrous things I learn working here at City Lights... But seriously, if you want to make it to DMW, you've only got one last weekend. So get on that ASAP. And believe me, it's a show that you should, nay, a show you need make an effort to make it out to see. It is one of the best pieces of theatre I've seen in a while. Really. Get off your booty and out to see this show.
In other news, we are getting going on picking out our next season. I have been forbade from talking about the upcoming season AT ALL, but I can say that I'm genuinely excited for things to come. Of course, I don't know for sure what's coming up, but after seeing all our options, it's looking like a great group of shows.
Anyways, that's about it from me. Hopefully you'll all hear more from my fellow interns soon, but that remains to be seen... *cough* *cough*

Conundrum.

Wow, has it really been over a month since my last blog post? Sheesh. I need to get on the ball with this. It's funny really. There has been tons of stuff happening that I could write about, but since I've been buisy doing that stuff, I haven't had time to write about it. It's a conundrum, really. Actually, it's more of a predicament, really. I just like saying conundrum. Say it with me kids:
Conundrum.
Now isn't that fun?

Although I could continue jabbering on with no real direction and not really talk about anything actually happening here at citylights by having long, drawn out sentences with no real direction punctuated with short sentences for emphasis, I will not. That would be stupid.

Instead, I will say that ANBC is awesome. I managed to get out and see it the other weekend, and it turned out to be way better than I expected. Keep in mind this is coming from someone who is completely over Christmas in every way. Thumbs up to Lisa-Marie and Michael for their awesome work.

And now, after listing to some lady tell me her life story over the phone and dealing with a posessed Ticket Manager, I shall go deal with the shipment of foodstuffs from Zanatto's that just rolled in. Good gravy.

Opening Weekend!

A clear indication of how busy we have been is the fact that this is the first entry in a week. And it's me again. Hello. I've already been interrupted with pressing Gala tickets.
Disappointing turn out for the pay-what-you-can show last night. Lani suggested today that we market that night to college folks who are poor but still want to see a show. That sounds like a good idea to me.
Opening weekend for Another Night Before Christmas!! Wooo! I checked out a few of the pictures on the website, it looks pretty good. I won't be here this weekend because I'm closing a show at Foothill College (which you should see on Sunday because there's no show at City Lights that day so you have no excuse not to see it), but I will be helping out every other weekend of the run, including debuting as a house manager. All of you lovely people should come see it, and then tell all your friends to come see it. This really isn't your average holiday show.
Okie doke, almost 5'o'clock, time to get outta here! Have a great weekend!
