Please Stand By!

You know we're forever complaining about not having enough time in the day to accomplish all we want to, but this time it's really hit a fever pitch! Not only am I smack dab in the middle of a three-week run of "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum" (portraying Captain Miles Gloriosus), but I haven't been able to take off even a moment of work, my 50th birthday occurred this past Saturday and tomorrow I've been enlisted to sing at my annual work convention, at which I always put in overtime hours! So it's beyond nuts.

All this happens to be going on just as we have reached our EIGHTH year in business (so to speak) at Poseidon's Underworld. So it's doubly frustrating that I cannot shake loose any time to prepare a special post to commemorate the occasion. However... I do expect to have quite a bit more time on my hands once this show has closed on August 27th. In fact, I may even be bored for a while, considering how much time it has taken to prepare for.  Please be patient. I'll be back very soon! In the meantime, a couple of pics of your webmaster in action on stage as well as some close-ups taken in a very sunny stairwell which afforded some Hollywood-style lighting!

Gloriosus still telling the world through song just how wonderful he is...

Bemoaning the "death" of his bride (who at this point is a male slave in drag, in order to pull the wool over his eyes!)

Back with more Underworld shenanigans soon!
