Les Grenouilles Adorables

Yes, I speak French.

For those that don't, the title translates to, "the adorable frogs," which is part of the lyrics of a song in Stephen Sondheim's musical, "The Frogs," which will be opening on Thursday, June 19th, and running the 20th and 21st, as well as the 26th-28th at JPAC in Janesville. Why would I include this? Well, as I've alluded to rehearsals a couple of times in this blog, it's the production that I am currently working on.

I can't help but marvel at how a propos it is for it to be playing at JPAC (which is situated next to the Rock River which as I've mentioned is currently in flood stage) at this particular time. How ironic! Not only is the content a political satire that is based off of Aristophenes' Greek comedy relevent to everything going on in today's world, but also that it would be about a river, and frogs, etc. It's quite funny, and promises to be an interesting production for anyone who cares to come see it. I have been working a lot getting the cast vocally ready for the show, which is why I have been so preoccupied lately.

I have no idea what I'll do after the show's run is over, but I'm sure it will include adding more to this corner of the world wide web, as well as more interesting media.

If any of you visitors out there get the opportunity, come see it! We'd love to have you!

Now....off to rehearsal!
