We spent too much time in Memorial Auditorium.
We flung ketchup packets onto the ceiling in Kriner Diner.
Diffy's fries were the only cure for hangovers.

Home Fur the Holidays
Christmas at the Hartford Stage is always a special time. We take a whole afternoon just to decorate the costume shop. Our 'mink deer' are those little furry creatures that your grandmother may have worn strung around her neck. They sport ball fringe harnesses and gold pipecleaner antlers. I like to think that dressing them up and putting them on display is 'recycling'. They're already dead, we might as well get some more use out of them. And yes, Santa is a puffer fish. I'm not sure why, but we had one, so we stuck him in the shoebox sleigh. And yes, Rudolph's nose does light up. Watch out Macy's!!!!
From CHristmas Past-
Last year the we did a Minktivity: Mary, Joseph and the 3 Wise Minks.
Ahhhahhhhahhha, THOSE ARE FANTASTIC!!!!! I love the sleigh. I love the creche. Oohh, my sides....Ahhhahahhah. I'm going to show everyone at work. THey will love them too. I'm going to go look at them some more...
Wasn't it just yesterday that Connie pantsed, or rather 'shortsed' Ross in Kriner Diner? So where did all these grey hairs come from and why is there a minivan in my garage?
We may eat better now. We certainly drink better beer. Who notices receding hairlines and proceeding stomachs. We are still Masquers. Everytime we converge again, sometimes not seeing each other for years, all those mortage payments and incompetent bosses slip away.
We remember watching the sun come up over The Wall. We discuss the McMansioning of America. The past makes us who we are, but we don't need to live in it.
