Kent Cross wrote to tell me…
A TiVo search for Wait for your Laugh doesn't find Sunday's showing because MeTV lists the show as Me-TV Special Presentation: Wait for your Laugh. I found that it is on at 11:00 PM here in San Diego it using the TiVo Guide option.
Thanks, Kent. Very helpful.
I forgot to mention that last Sunday afternoon, I went to see this lady sing…
If there's a better singer than Audra McDonald warbling these days, I'd like to know who that might be. She did one Sunday matinee down at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion accompanied by the LA Opera Orchestra and if they'd been selling tickets for future performances, every single person there might have bought a few on their way out.
The music was great, her voice was great and the in-between-the-showtunes banter was delightful. My favorite moment was when she sang "Summertime…and the Livin' is Easy" without the orchestra and without the microphone. She did this the last time I saw her perform but that was in a much smaller room. To hear that magnificent voice fill the Dorothy Chandler — that's the place they used to telecast the Oscars from — was as thrilling as anything I've ever seen or heard on a stage.
