Wow! Our benefit was a smashing success. Seriously, this isn’t some ‘the glass is half full’ press spin. We were filled to to gills with well over 100 people. People who said they were coming aactually showed up! All loving, laughing, drinking and not so much eating…but they absolutely loved the show. Kudos to the ensemble for giving it their all in an assortment of complex dramatic roles: Mike and Linda Rogo, Nomi from Showgirls, Joan Crawford and the doomed Jennifer North. BC Kalz in a Vegas showgirl outfit sans makeup. Priceless. He was STILL pretty without the makeup.

Miss Andra Velis Simon was wonderful on the piano, Jodi was indispensable, Hugh, Victoria and Chris had a great silent auction and our raffle whores, Tina and Chad sold way above their quota. I also was able to live out my rock star dreams in The Joans. Myself and Jennifer were Joan Crawford. Ed Jones was Carol Ann and Taylor, Aaron and Larry provided the sounds. It was really fun but I was as nervous as hell. It went over pretty damn well. I think we raised oodles of dough. Chris and I can now stay in a four star hotel in Puerto Vallarta and swim with the the dolphins! Benefit gratitude list coming shortly.
