Show time. (gulp)
Tonight opens (and closes) the first show I’ve directed in years. It’s only a little thing, a comedy revue for the 50th anniversary of an organization of which I am quite fond. But tonight, it won’t matter that the show is short and the audience is small (and the cast is big!). I will put myself all the way out there. I will be every bit as filled with excitement and terror as I was in my (slightly) more legit theater days.

Tonight, I need a dose of theater magic, so here is the most inspiring performance I know of. It is here to give me nerve, and to give you pleasure. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you “Glitter and Be Gay” performed by the incomparable, the incandescent, the impossibly flawless Kristin Chenoweth.

Here goes nothin’!!!
