Sunday saw the end of Smash. And that made me sad. (So sad that I had to watch a few episodes of Broadway or Bust) Why? Because I love musicals. Seriously! I got a thrill when seeing this:
Yes, it's the Tony awards. I'm already planning snacks and beverages.
Then I thought about it. We have a perfectly good community theater here. I should audition. Actually, I saw the audition notice for the summer production of Les Miserables the day before the audition. If I had sheet music, I so would have.
So now I have a mission. I need audition music. What would be a good song, or few songs, for a mezzo soprano?
Well, his morning I saw this:
A pouty puppy. She didn't want me to go back to work.
I didn't want to go back to work either.
