We're Back!

Acting is....What's the word we're looking for here, Mr. Vicidomini?....oh, that's right, DOING!  And now that the auditions for the Broadway Knights Theatre Academy are over, it's time to for all good Jedi Knights and Padawan Learners to get their character on.

One has to wonder what Miss Allison Erskine would have made of newcomer, Seth Johnson, coming into Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood, and leaving with the Wolfman's girl.  And wasn't it great to see Mr. Benjamin Erskine's reprise of Saturday Night Fever's Tony Manero- at least until BKTA's new technical advisor, Mrs. Jamie Chamberland, ruined the dance party by cutting off the music.  Sure, she said she was learning the system, but isn't it just as likely that seeing her co-teacher, looking like a survivor from Survivor, dancing like Robin Williams channeling Nathan Lane channeling Will Farrell channeling John Travolta was more than she could bear.

After the first day of instruction, Yoda says, "A good year we will have, if one lesson the Knights and Learners will grasp: Do.  Or do not.  There is no try."  N'est pas, Mr. Vicidomini?
