Sign up today to audition for Magic Moments annual production, Another Night at Nick’s

It is 15 years after the big Birthday Bash at Nick’s Bar and Grill and it is ranked in the top five in town. The bar has been remodeled with some disagreement, the staff has had some turnover, and a famous Blogger is interviewing Nick and Doreen on the bar’s success. A random musician shows up, sits in with the band and plays “Piano Man”. Several patrons video this and it goes viral and morphs into “Billy Joel is at Nick’s!” Let the mayhem begin!

Some of the locals are back, such as Mormons, the Pirates, and the Pinball Wizard. Also dropping in are the Mob, the Billy Joel Fan Club, and MacGregor with his Irish Step Dancers. Leon still inhabits his spot at the bar. Songs include “Beat It’, “Marry You”, “The Rainy Day We Met”, “Living On A Prayer”, “Stay”, “American Land”, Piano Man”, and “I’m Gonna Be 500 Miles”. There are some “beer” songs as well. Lots of opportunities for character parts and solos.

Sign up today to audition for Magic Moments annual production, A Midwinter Night’s Dream.

We are trying something new this year. Instead of a story developed from songs we like, we have decided to do: “A Midwinter Night’s Dream” – the musical. Based on Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”, we are placing the show at Mardi Gras in New Orleans in the present day. It will take place both in N.O. with the Rex Krewe and in the swamps and bayous of Louisiana. Since it is loosely based on Shakespeare’s funniest play, there are many roles and complications. A fun time will be had by all. We will be needing a Mardi Gras King and Queen, a King and Queen of the Swamp people, some bewitched couples, a group of ne’er do well actors, some lost children, a magical trickster (named Puck of course!), several Krewes (it is Mardi Gras after all), and, of course, Amos Moses among many others.

Hope to see you there!!

For the first time in 38 years, there is no first day rehearsal for Magic Moments. This is kind of a sad day, filled with a sense of loss, or maybe nostalgia, or anger at the universe, or many other emotions.

But, it could also be a time for reflection, a time to deepen our friendships in other ways thru our MM associations. We can bring renewed energy, renewed commitment, renewed passion for what we love. We have the chance to find new ideas, songs, dances, new ways of doing what we love. We can use all of this to reinforce the idea that all of us are one and the same regardless of our various and different attribute, talents etc. and show the world that this is not just an idea but is a livable reality.

I miss you all and look forward to many more years of “United we stand, united we fall, let’s make this show the best of all! Give ‘em hell!!”

Break-a-leg,
KQ
