Saw Cinderella in Long Beach, CA

[dockam]

Made a lil trip down South, cuz I'm a huge Musical Theater nerd😊First stopped at Forest Hills to clean up two gravesites. Great friend and coworker, Bonnie's Dad and Marine G'pa Semper Fi. Rest in Peace Sirs🙏

Did a two miler on LB Campus.

Then saw the Musical:

Almost Broadway level production.

Great set pieces, vivid/colorful costumes, wonderful singing, and awesome choreography in a Gorgeous Venue. They had the Carpenters Awards and other memorabilia on display 💙

Sounds like another awesome weekend adventure Doc. Thanks for sharing your QOL highlights with us. They help to brighten the day.

Love live performances of almost any genre. My youngest daughter was a stage manager so together we have caught a lot of great shows over the years

[dockam in reply to Carlosbach]

You're Welcome, it's part of the new mission to Enliven others with QoLPosts😀

I assume you viewed my Elton John vids

Awesome about Daughter and getting access to stage shows

Fight on

I wish you would adopt me Randy. Karen Carpenter passing was a Princess Diana moment. Suddenly, we all knew what anorexia and etc were. We've Only Just Begun became such a bitter sweet song to me. So many here just beginning their prostate cancer journey. 6 years for me in March, 2023. Even longer for you. I admire you so much, for getting up every day, and saying I've Only Just Begun.

[dockam in reply to monte1111]

LOL sure, but not sharing a bed with you

Mahalo nui loa my Bruddah for the praise, I'm just being me - the Optimistic, Glass almost full, Goofball. As I've said before Life's too short to be a jerk 😀

Yes, each Day we awaken is a new Day that has just begun

Yes, she had such a beautiful, distinctive, euphonic voice. Loved all of their songs, but esp the

Christmas song of theirs: youtu.be/XN4nzZbUnQc(Not working as expected?)

Such a tragedy with anorexia, but we still have all of their songs available on the Web

I'm watching this on my 2nd computer monitor: youtu.be/jCxCl0aGDYo(Not working as expected?)

Me Ke Aloha Pumehana - with warm Love Bruddah

Rainy Days and Cancer don't always get me down, cuz I'm on "Top of the World", but not a "Superstar". I don't even wish it was "Yesterday once more" because "We've only just begun" and "For all we know" someday I'll get "Close to you" and ya know that I'm gonna "Sing" cuz "I won't last a day without you"

"Merry Christmas Darling"

Small theater is so wonderful. A decade or so ago a small group from SoCal came to AZ with Play On. We went at least twice.

[dockam in reply to PabloK]

Yes, I agree!! When I was down in Orange County Ca, I'd see shows at La Mirada performing art center lamiradatheatre.com/

It was my 1st time at the Carpenter's Theater and it's a beautiful venue with awesome acoustics, I scored 2nd row seats - up close and personal. Will prolly go back maybe for An American in Paris, or Sound of Music

One of my dental patients is in "A Christmas Story" up here, so gotta go see her on stage:

Fight on, Theater on,
