Ah, Technology, how you play me for the fool!!!

Yesterday, we were fortunate enough to be given an additional 1/2 hour. (yay!! that's the good news)..... But the half hour from 2:30 to 3:00 was not recorded in the archives therefore it will not be included here. Unfortunately, there were three beautifully sung number in that time slot.. Scott Shipman singing "NYC," Jordan Morgan singing "Maybe," and Sarah Nichols singing "Tomorrow." I'm very very sad and hopeful that the geniuses at KOOP will find the file and we can add it. So this podcast will be missing a half hour.

What we do have is Doryan Rice, June Kontvis, Peter Fuhry, and Trevor Goodman from the Opposable Thumbs Theatre Company and their production of "Feaster"

As well as Scott Shipman, Emily Behm, Jordan Morgan and Sarah Nichols for Zilker Theatre's production of Annie opening July 9th and playing through August 15th at the Zilker Hillside Theatre.

Second, we had Jim Caruso joining by phone. He and Billy Stritch are bringing "Cast Party" back to Austin. They will be at the Long Center on May 20 and 21. (Buy tickets... or else!!)It is a wildly popular weekly soiree that brings a sprinkling of Broadway glitz and urbane wit to the legendary Birdland in New York City every Monday night. It's a cool cabaret night-out enlivened by a hilariously impromptu variety show. Showbiz superstars hit the stage alongside up-and-comers, serving up jaw-dropping music and general razzle-dazzle. Austin Cabaret Theatre (WHO?) will be presenting cast party at the Long Center on May 20, 21.

Finally, two cast members from the Broadway tour of "Chorus Line"; Venny Carranza, the Dance Captain and Heather Duckworth who plays Judy were in studio to talk about the show and life in the theatre and rocket science (not kidding).
