'the little prince' the opera

while waiting in line to buy a ticket for il trovatore at cincinnati opera, last month, i heard the woman in front of me talking about being in 'the little prince' -- turns out, cincinnati chamber opera is doing it, the weekend before christmas

i don't know if they're using the francesca zambello production, for the opera's premier, in houston, in 2003 -- her web-site has pictures

one of the best theatrical experiences i've had was a play of the story that oberlin summer theater festival did, four years ago -- magical -- wonderful

groucho follow-up -- new and old

i attended the great musical '1776,' in pittsburgh, a couple of weeks ago, and, playing the role of james wilson was jeremy czarniak

in his bio, it says he created the one-man show 'groucho: a life in review' -- i'd love to see that -- it says he's doing it in the sullivan theater in north carolina, this spring -- from his web-site, that looks like it's in fayetteville, and it's the only upcoming production i could find of the show -- too bad

anyone wanna go to...carolina? -- 'gone to carolina, in my mind'

okay -- so now, here's...the real groucho -- a few...snippets -- actually, clips -- good-sized...clips

first, groucho, in top form -- as a panelist, on 'what's my line?'

another gem -- this time, he's the mystery guest

another...classic groucho -- here, roasting johnny carson

a few weekends ago, i spent hours, watching clips...from his 'you bet your life' -- loved it -- love it, still

'say the magic word, you win a hundred dollars'

there are scores of videos...from the show, on youtube

here's a clip -- not from 'you bet your life,' but from 'the jack benny show'
