Well, It Is About Time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                               No one can say I don't inform my girls the minute I hear something!  For weeks, one cry on here has been--what is Jessie Mueller's next project going to be?  Well, I have found out.

                                               Jessie is at the helm of a production that could make her the major star she deserves, and has the talent, to become. She will be portraying songwriter Carole King in "Beautiful--The Carole King Musical!!!!!!!"  It begins previews November 21, at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre.

                                                 Just think--Jessie's voice wrapping itself around such classics as "You've Got A Friend," "It's Too Late," and my personal favorite, "So Far Away." You know I was singing them all, back in 1971, darlings, when I got my copy of the King masterwork, "Tapestry."

                                                  Will Jessie be doing needlepoint on stage, as Carole was, on the cover of "Tapestry?????"  Only time will tell!

                                                      And November 21 is just three days after my birthday!  So, guess what is going to be my birthday show, and what performer I will celebrate it with??????????  You better believe it!!!!!!!!!!

                                                        Will Jessie be TONY nominated for this???????  We shall see!!!!!!!!!

                                                          A nomination would be great!  But she should WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                                          And then do "Funny Girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
