    So Boo Is On-Stage Tonight and Tomorrow

    Frau Sneider in Cabaret

    Since she's been going to acting school since she was about the time she was 10 (she came in second place for the role of Sam Pucket then only know as "main character's tough friend") the director also put her in charge of hair, make-up, AND wardrobe.

    She's a busy little beaver.

    Neat! She is going to be busy.

    Who/What is this for?

    Although, I should note that the leg doesn't necessarily have to be yours, Boo. Far less painful if you're strategic about it.

    So, even though I helped Boo for weeks with her lines and songs they went with an older woman for Frau Sneider. (Who did well.)

    No, Boo got the role of Fraulein Kost, a very different role than the owner of a boarding house.

    Dear ol' Dad, (me) had a whole set of odd emotions seeing his little girl in a long black wig and late 1030's dress, smoking cigarettes, (staged) and slow dancing with uniformed Nazi's!

    (Can I get a *Yikes* of simpathy?)

    On the other hand the woman who played Sally Bowles was a professional grade singer and actor. Named Julia Thollaug according to the handbill. She knocked it out of the park on her opening number and just kept going.

    Cute as a bug's ear too.

    Heh. I remember having to suppress my inner idiot when my SO (at the time) had been playing the role of a street urchin getting roughed up/manhandled/chased off by the store-keep. Not something protective-but-not-overprotective me cared to see even though, intellectually, I knew _he'd_ been in far more danger from her than she from him. (She'd managed to break his nose with the back of her head during rehearsal.)

    I hope that her name isn't actually "Boo," now is it?

    How can one tell if the crowd didn't like the performance, or if they're instead shouting your name in approval?

    Here it's "Big Bad Boo", though it's been more than a year since her last visit.

    Actually the female doctor who lifted Michelle from her mother called her that because as she came clear and was lifted up, Michelle had this look on her face like somebody rudely awakened from a dream with a glass of water and the doctor said, "Aww, sorry Booboo Bear" and Boo stuck ever since.

    Unlike her older sister who was born with a full head of her mother's black hair, Boo being a strawberry blonde was bald for almost a year. Kept threatening the Mrs. that I was going to return Boo to the hospital for an upholstered model. (I got good at dodging thrown objects being married to that woman.)
