Shopping for Shakespeare

Just got back from the Costume and Prop Sale at the Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey. Lots of cool stuff, as I promised. We got some masks, a parasol, some $5 T-shirts and a few other knick knacks. Mrs. Willie loves knick knacks. Lots of fun waiting on line as well as we met up with some fellow old timers, reminiscing about seeing bands in the 70s and the 80s at places like the Main Event and Zaffy's. Anybody else remember the Good Rats? "Rat City in Blue?" "Tasty?"

Takes a fella back. Back to the days when the George Street Playhouse was still on George Street, and the seats at the Shakespeare Theatre were folding desks.

Still plenty of stuff, so if you read this in a timely manner, get over there the same way.

Busy weekend on the boards as we saw "Frankie and Johnny at the Clair de Lune" last night at the Womens Theater Company in Parsippany. Incredible rain storm on the way home.

In about an hour, we're off to Princeton for a matinee of "Tartuffe." Whew.

As Greg Schiano is so fond of saying, "you just gotta keep choppin'."
