Just learned that Ollie Johnston passed away nearly 2 weeks ago. My friend Frank had a nice blog tribute to them. Sigh….

Update: 5/5/2008 Even more Iron Man references at Ctrl+Alt+Del and Evil Inc. The Evil Inc one is actually even funnier since Tony Stark/Iron Man was a big proponent of the Super Human registration act in the recent Civil War storyline (so sue me, I read the Wikipedia entry). Update: 4/30/2008 Found another Iron Man comic [...]

A most amusing musical with a 4 person cast, from the guy who brought us the The Marvelous Wonderettes (Roger Bean). Chronicling the madcap mayhem that ensues when three brothers have to double duty their stage hand duties and perform on stage at a USO show when the Andrews Sisters get chicken pox, this is [...]

THEY DID THE BUNNY HOP DURING THE FINAL CHORUS OF DON’T BE THE BUNNY!!!! OMFG!!!! IT FITS PERFECTLY AND IT’S HILARIOUS! This is the fifth production of this musical that I’ve seen (on Broadway, technically off-Broadway; the national tour at OCPAC; PCPA Theatrefest in Solvang; Laguna Beach High School) and I learn something new every [...]

The latest addition to Gideon Defoe’s masterful works continues the exciting and exhilarating romps through Europe with the witlessly brave Pirate Captain and his crew. The trouble starts when the Pirate Captain is mistaken for Karl Marx, but the adventure escalates as the Pirate Captain and his crew scour Paris to try and figure out [...]

A decent production of one of my favorite musicals, my first complaint is with the program. It kind of awkwardly describes whats actually going on in the play. It says that the story has two plot lines: one is an author writing the screenplay of one of his novels and the other is that same [...]

It’s hard to review this book without a) giving away too much of the plot and b) finding enough different words to describe just how enjoyable the book is.
