It is so hot here in Austin that one can hardly think. There is a chance of some rain here at the end of the week, so fingers are crossed.
My Temple is doing a benefit for Jewish War Veterans in late November, and I've agreed to direct a couple of short scenes from MR. ROBERTS for it. It's one of my all time favorite comedies.
I'll definitely do the scene where The Captain first encounters Ensign Pulver. I think it's the funniest scene in the play. Not quite sure what the other scene will be yet.
I was supposed to do a radio interview yesterday to promote the new book, DRACULA MEETS JACK THE RIPPER & Other Revisionist Histories, but the guy called at the last minute and postponed it until Friday morning...which is fine.
Not much else happening as we head into the Labor Day weekend.
You have a creative day.
