Greetings!
Well...my apologies for being so negletful of the blog!! I've been in Auburn, NY for a month and it has been go-go-GO! We started rehearsals September 30th, opened on October 13th and will be closing next Sturday, September 30th. Talk about a whirlwind... but it's been incredibly exciting!!
For those of you I haven't kept informed, I'm currently at the Merry-Go-Round Playhouse in Auburn NY performing in CHURCH BASEMENT LADIES 2: A SECOND HELPING. Yes...it's the sequal to the CBL I've been doing for the past year. And it's been an incredible run. My cast is pretty wonderful (check them all out: http://www.merry-go-round.com/productions/index.php?production_id=16). The theater is beyond words and I'm SO greatful to have had the chance to work here. It really is Broadway in the Fingerlakes! If you're anywhere nearby in the next week, please come check it out. I'm really proud of this production. A TV spot ran this past week with clips from the show (most of which I'm in). It'll give you a feel for what the show's all about... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zpFpghuvPg
I've also had a few minutes to breathe and relax...and in that time I've had visits from Marija Reiff, my parents, a surprise visit form my boyfriend Cody (!!) and good quality time with my Cortland family Ingrid Fox and Don & Carol Reed. I also took today to go tour around the Cayuga Lake wine country. Absolutely incredible. Stunningly beautiful, and some good wine to boot: Cayuga Ridge Estate, Goose Watch Winery, Hosmer Winery & Knapp Winery. http://www.cayugawinetrail.com/ Very much worth the visit!! I only wish I'd had time for more. I've also been exploring some of the areas restaurants, and if you're ever in Auburn/Skneateles I would I highly recommend:
Daut's Resaturant (especially the multi-cheese mac & cheese) -- http://www.dautsrest.com/
Moro's Table (incredible!!) -- http://www.morostable.com/
Mandana Inn in Skaneateles -- no website, but plenty of on-line reviews
Auburn Dinerant -- http://maps.google.com/maps/place?client=safari&rls=en&oe=UTF-8&um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=dinerant+auburn+ny&fb=1&gl=us&hq=dinerant&hnear=Auburn,+NY&cid=16973337523072277442
And I hear very high recommendations for Doug's Fish Fry, Blue Water Grill and Sherwood Inn -- all in Skaneateles.
Well on that note...we have one week left to go! Who knows, I might get to some more of these restaurants. I might hit up another couple of wineries. I might just relax with Jessica and watch some tv on Hulu. No matter what, it's been an incredible month that I've felt very furtunate to have. Check out the new photo albums.
Enjoy!
