I had rehearsal for the show that I am directing tonight, and I was waiting and waiting for one actor to show up, you remember the one that was so rude last time? So, I called my machine, and he had called and quit the show! I for one was thrilled spitless. I don't have to work with that jerk, who's name is

Nathan Gottlieb

Yay!

Here are the last few Paris Then stories:

In the scene I'm in, Rebecca and Roz have a little exchange, and then Jodie enters. Well, at the matinee on Saturday, Rebecca and Roz have their little exchange, and then Jodie did NOT enter. So we all kind of sat there. Rebecca kind of says "Ah, what a nice aperitif", but that's all she can think of to say and everyone just sat there some more and then, at long last, Jodie entered. Rebecca's line "Fitzgerald, I'm so glad to see you!" was extremely heartfelt!

I said afterwards that I had missed my chance to add my soliloquy...

The other week, when the diva actor in our cast was changing his entire performance after having hysterics the day before when another actor reportedly changed his scene a LEETLE bit, I leaned across the table and whispered to Gregg "Am I imagining this, or is he changing everything?", and Gregg whispered back, in character as James Joyce, "Well, Nora, how about a dance?"

Okay, this is the LAST Paris Then anecdote, I swear. We always had snacks downstairs, and one day someone brought Double Stuff Oreos. I hate the Oreo cookie part, but I LOVE the lard and sugar; the Stuff. I think that they should just put it in a jar and sell it and people would just eat it with spoons right out of the jar.

Buy Stuff!
