I’m excited to say that I’ve been invited to be one of the 2012 MetroStar Challenge contestants! More information and crossed fingers to come, but for now please mark **Monday, July 16th** on your calendars – that’s when I sing one song as an “audition” to pass into the weekly challenge portion (July 30th – August 20th). And AUDIENCE VOTES […]
In the past few years, I noticed each Summer solstice there occurs a Yoga day in Times Square – I think I read about it in one of the first TimeOut New Yorks I bought. I found this year I was able to participate on Wednesday, June 20th. It was a great afternoon, hot but in the shade, in the […]
This past Saturday, the 16th, I was invited by one of the Producers of Broadway’s Godspell to come see the show before it closed. I must admit, I felt guilty for not having seen it yet, as one of my friends from the original Los Angeles production of bare, Wallace Smith (he played Matt, I understudied Nadia and was in […]
A friend of mine, after reading my blog entries of all the Broadway shows I saw this past month, challenged me to take a look at these shows and self-cast myself in them.

I watched the Tony Awards last Sunday night at a friend’s place on West 73rd.

I’m a huge fan of the American Museum of Natural History. I am a proud member and I love all the programs and exhibits (both new and old) the museum […]
Sunday, June 3rd, was all about gluttony. Three feasts were had, two for the taste buds and one for…well…the 12 year old in all (or some) of us. We all started out with a celebration at the famous Waldorf-Astoria Peacock room, where one can purchase eating and gorging rights to their infamous Sunday buffet. We were celebrating both my husband’s […]
Saturday the 2nd we were still getting over a chocolate hangover from the Sardi’s dessert the night before, but my husband and I were excited to meet up with the in-laws and friends for lunch at Maison, and then to see “Evita” on Broadway! Maison is a French bistro-breakfast-lunch restaurant which invokes “the coastal flavors of Brittany“…whatever that means. The […]
