One thing I re-learn constantly is Don’t Make Plans. They never work out. I could offer countless examples. No wait, I can’t. If I offer examples you can probably count them. Once again I indulge in hyperbole.
Tonight we had rehearsal for Fabulous and Fatal, the murder mystery we are presenting as a fundraiser for the Herkimer County Historical Society on Oct. 18. We brought costumes and props, so I PLANNED to take pictures for this blog post. Did I take any picture? Of course not!
In my defense, nobody was completely in costume. A couple of actors tried on a few pieces, but there was no real photo op. Alas. However, we discussed complete costumes, and I believe we will all be, yes, fabulous.
In hopes of making this a better blog post, I will include a couple of pictures of props that previously appeared in this space.
I may not wear pearls, but my lips might be this red.
I rehearsed with this glass in my hand. Full disclosure: I had wine in it. I may very well have wine in it next Friday as well. Judge me if you are so inclined.
There may be moustaches involved, but bow ties are not planned.
This is the other side of that glass. I love this glass. It was a gift to me from the cast of Leading Ladies, the play I directed at Ilion Little Theatre in — goodness, was it 2016?
I see I am over 200 words. Regular readers know I consider that respectable for a blog post.
Fabulous and Fatal will be presented Friday Oct. 18 at 5:30 p.m. at the Travel Lodge in Little Falls, NY. Tickets are $30 for dinner and show, available at Herkimer County Historical Society, 315-866-6413.
