Oh, please don't forget my show! I'm in the MITGSP scenes night, which is happening Jan. 28-30. I'm singing "The Ape and the Lady", which I hear you did in a production of "Princess Ida". (Do you have a recording? I'd love to hear your interpretation.)

Unfortunately, I don't yet know the venue, and I'm not sure if MITGSP does either.

People can imitate me if they want. Actually, I'd find it amusing.

Often imitated, never duplicated. :-)
