theatre news...

--First a foremost, a HUGE Congrats! to DB alum Norbert Leo Butz, who has earned a Tony nomination for his role in "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels"! (Norbert co-stars with John Lithgow, who was also nominated for a Tony.)
--Ewan McGregor is set to make his West End musical debut as Sky Masterson in "Guys and Dolls". Along with him is Tony Award winning Jane Krakowski as Miss Adelaide. Having heard McGregor sing in "Moulin Rouge", Sky should fit him well.
--Another Congrats! to Christina Applegate (yes, some know her as 'Kelly Bundy') who has also earned a Tony nomination for her role in "Sweet Charity". (Who knew 'Kelly Bundy' would grow up to be a Broadway star? Awesome.)

Now for local...
--Benefit concert for Bob Mulch (and to raise money for the Cancer Society) was held May 14 (?), 2005. Here's what was to be said about it (I missed it as I was on my honeymoon): "It went very well. There were some wonderful songs, a few were tear jerkers, some funny. The tributes were very touching and light-hearted....You know Bob, he really keeps on chugging! He's even still working! I don't know how much was raised for the Cancer Society, but I think they did well..."
--Will get around to posting some community theatre shows as soon as I find out dates, times, and locations!
