Coot saw my profile pic on Facebook...My amazing daughter could have had a career as a makeup artist...she made me into one of the CATS   Without any directions or anything...when she was in high school and wanted to talk, I'd sit on a chair, and she'd pull out her makeup kit, and after a couple hours of conversation, there would be no telling what I'd look like!  rofl...

Ok...new album  "Jen's Detritus"

Ha!  Thanks for sharing, Jen, those pics are gorgeous!  Kitty's going to be jealous!   

It was funny when she did that, I looked in the mirror and realized how easy it would be to get into that character (were one dancing CATS)...you look and feel like one!!!

Year before last I was in Godspell...singing, dancing...I was in HEAVEN!

I got to see Godspell on Broadway!   I was just blown away!    

 

I also got to tour the area where the Oberammergau Passion Play is done every 10 years in celebration of God protecting those citizens from the Plague....   I wasn't there to see the actual Play (only happens on the years ending in "0").  I did get to see photographs of past players, the costumes, and read the script.....  

 

I joined a little Theater Group back in the late 70's.  My first play was as Mrs Stevenson in "Sorry Wrong Number."  I was terrified on Opening Night thinking I would forget all those lines - and be trapped on stage in full spotlight, crying.....  As it turned out, the lights came up, and I went "into character" and just pretended it was just another rehersal......  Hooray!  All plays after that were smaller roles, and much more "fun" to do!   My younger son, however, is the real thespian in our family.  He got standing ovations every night from his portrayal as "Radar" in M*A*S*H.   I only had a tiny bit-part as Hawkeye's shrink, but it was so much fun to share play-acting with my son (when we'd played so much together when he was a kid....) 

What I loved about it was the relationship between Jesus and the disciples and real grassroots movements about love and equality.  It WAS written in the love era, no?

 

The fun part about that show was the audience interaction...we dance and sang in amongst the crowd...the story is basically the telling of parables...in one parable, the cast breaks out into impromptu singing of "Jesus Loves Me" and we were supposed to just do whatever struck us.  One night, there were 2 little kids, maybe 5 and 3 right in the front row...I was doing the sign language and singing, and the little girl and boy caught my eye...they stood up close to me and started trying to do it too...I knelt down and it was like there was just the three of us there for a while...THAT'S the fun of doing stuff like that.
