Thank you for sharing! I am hoping there will be some new photos on Nathan's website soon, as well as an updated schedule for the rest of the year. ... of ......
Thanks! Is anyone else going to be seeing this, besides me (and Ken from TX, of course)? I leave tomorrow and am seeing the performances on 5/3 and 5/5. ...

Did anyone else read Nathan's post regarding the made for tv opera about the Apollo 11 mission? It sounds fascinating. Does anyone have any more information...
I did read the post about the Apollo mission. All I know about it is what Mr. Gunn has told us. I'll keep my eyes out and perhaps do some Internet searching. I...

Ken, Thanks so much for the excellent write-up. I wish I'd thought of the Pillsbury biscuit comparison -- it did look exactly like that! I now wish I'd read...
