Wonderette field trip in NYC

What do you get when you have four innocent Wonderettes waiting for a ride home in the Big Big City???
Some classic pictures....enjoy

Missy...taking it all in

Oh Taxi!!!

Any one want a weenie??

Nobody makes 'em like they do in NYC!

Forever the pin-up....waiting for Spider Man!

Missy maintains her high standards!

Clang Clang Clang!!

 

"wake me when the car comes"

"I don't get it"

THE BEST THING- we had a blast!!

THE WORST THING- It is FAR too cold to be hailing a cab in a prom dress!!

"Eventful" Times

As the time keeps ticking away....we have taken part in many events. We sang late at night at a super fun Gay bar called Splash, we did a live Radio Show at the visitors center in Times Square, we sang at the Metropolitan Room, we did a Theatre Mania event at one of the largest Street Fairs- and the list keeps growing.

Last week we were invited to the Gay Life Expo. This is a huge event, and we were very proud to be asked. It was also the first time we were out and about in the City in costume. Look for an additional Blog with some more shots.

(look how cute the costumes are with the rainbow)

Two times now we have been interviewed on Sirius Radio. Most recently it was the Diana Cage show at 11:30 after a performance...she was a hoot and we stayed well past our scheduled hour. (it didn't hurt that they provided cocktails)

On November 11 our CD was officially released. I may have mentioned before that it was my very first one.... so it's pretty special.

On the evening of our release- every audience member received a free copy of the CD and we signed copies after the show.

This give away is I suppose the closest I'll get to an Oprah give away in my little world....it was cool!

They did a spread about our release and our signing on Broadway .com

So much more to report....I'll have to do it in increments. 

For now.....you can get our CD on Amazon or even on ITunes

THE BEST THING.....Steven will be here tomorrow for Thanksgiving week

THE WORST THING.... Steven will only be here a week.....I shall savor every moment!!

The Beauty in the midst of The Beast

It was Monday....The day before the "Big Election" and I had an audition (uneventful).

I found myself with four hours to kill. I could either train it back to Queens (45 min. each way) or find something to explore.

So....I went to Central Park.

No matter how many times you've heard that Central Park is beautiful..... no words can describe it...on MANY levels.

From the changing colors on all the trees to the myriad of different languages you hear on the paths....this is an oasis to experience when the City starts becoming cold and dirty.... and it was a cleanse I really needed.

In the past, I've never been someone who did "alone time very well"- I'm starting to embrace it more and more and also figuring out that the stronger I am on my own....the stronger I will be for others

I'm still so grateful for this experience....but I get so overwhelmed with the mystery of what is to come. Something that everyone who chooses the entertainment industry will always have hanging over their heads.

Some of my favorite views were from the quiet beauty of the Park looking out toward the Big City. Without getting too "deep" I think that analogy is what I want to cling to. Spending my life within the beautiful park with a clean clear view of the Big City.

I don't think that analogy is for everyone....I think some want to go through life in the middle of the noise.

whichever you choose....I think it's important to have the clarity to really think about it.

All the leaves are changing colors and so am I.....

My day in the Park was so peaceful and beautiful. It really helped me to remember to savor EVERY moment that comes my way. 

I took about four pictures for passing strangers who were strolling the park together and wanted to be in the same shot.

 It made me really excited that Steve will be here again soon.

I watched a bunch of 6 year olds play ball and I missed my nieces and nephews.... but at the same time feel so thankful to have such amazing family support for this whole chapter of my life.

My "view FROM the park " is pretty awesome right now. 

Keep tuning in....LOTS to share.

THE BEST THING- Finally appreciating "the changing of the leaves"

THE WORST THING- All my warm boots make me trip and fall exiting the subway....not good.
