Seuss Photos








































I can't believe it, but I think I got the POST-SHOW blues! Everything came together this year. Elsie loved it, which made it an even better experience...

Understudy














If anyone goes down for our upcoming production of Seussical, Elsie can fill in. She knows every song by heart and is my creative collaborator.

Dad, I think you should make the sky pink, and then purple when the Jungle of Nool starts.

OK Elsie, we'll do that with the cyc.

Dad, I think Mayzie should have a 100 foot long tail.

How would it fit on stage?

Dad? You can do anything! You're the director!

The Frozen Tundra















...of Durand Beach!

Look at this Winter Wonderland. There is so much snow and it is so cold that the beach extends out into Lake Ontario about fifty yards. Arctic explorers!
