Still here....

Hey,
Well, I haven't been on any trips to speak of lately and to share with you. But....I have been busy, that's for sure.
As you may know, I am stage manager for a production of "NUNSENSE" here in Costa Rica, being produced by The Little Theater Group. It is alot of fun and alot of work, too. I have learned so much about doing this type of work. I often wondered what it would have been like to go into theatre instead of the Navy.....well, the time in the military certainly paid off and I really don't have any complaints about how things have turned out.
Anyway, we did go to a very interesting production of "FAUST" by the Costa Rica Opera Company. While it was beautifully staged, it was very hard to follow the scenes being played on stage and the story being sung. While I am not sure I "liked" it, it was so very artsy-fartsy it was hard not to, at least, appreciate it.
Then there are our weekly and bi-weekly get-togethers. We love to gather at someone's house, cook, have wine, and usually watch a movie.....Sunday night at Ray's it was "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane". Great old movie with Bette Davis and Joan Crawford that still holds up today, especially on the "suspense and creepy (distrubing)" aspects of this type of movie. I highly recommend it.
Well, that about catchs you up. Hopefully, I will have some great stuff to blog about as the show progresses and we have Opening Night!
See ya later!
