StageWorks! Opening Night!! “Sylvia”!
Please join us as our guests for the opening night pre-show reception, performance and cast party
of the romantic comedy “Sylvia” !
If you love dogs… you’ll love this show !
Sylvia
by A. R. Gurney
(Enter your dog in “Sylvia’s Cutest Dog Contest: Stageworks Facebook page!)
Friday June 29th, 7:30pm Pre-Show Wine and Cheese and 8pm curtain!
Stageworks Theatre in The Channel District!
The show runs through July 15th if you are not free this night.
A romantic comedy about a dog and the couple who adopts her. “Sylvia” is a hilarious commentary on mid-life angst, and the role pets play in our lives. When middle-aged, Greg brings stray dog “Sylvia” back to the empty nest he shares with his wife, a romantic triangle ensues! Sylvia is a beautiful, frisky young blonde and yes, she talks, sings Cole Porter and quotes Shakespeare! (Sarah Jessica Parker created the role on Broadway!) For dog lovers this is a must! Bring a photo of YOUR dog to put on our “Sylvia’s friends” wall in the lobby!
You Just Can Not Make this Stuff Up!!!!
The names have been changed to protect the innocent! Kinda – Sort of. LOL
“Funny Water at the SunCoast Resort”
(6)
A SunCoast Resort Memory. There was a fancy Gay Car Club banquet dinner in the second floor convention room. The guests were all served water. After a few sips people started to comment “I’ve heard of lemon in the water before but never garlic. Hum… this must be a southern thing??” Soon some people were saying it was actually very nice change. The truth was there was no water on that floor. The kitchen servers had brought the drinking water over in buckets from the kitchen. The buckets were the same ones pickles came in. Once the servers realized what was going on there was a big laugh in the kitchen. LOL LOL LOL PS Nobody told the group. They still think that we put garlic in our water in the south!!!

“OMG the CD was Signed!!!”
(5)
Several years ago Steve Donahue of G.BAR was telling us that we had to come out on a Sunday Night to hear this new singer. That night she gave a great performance. We remember her over the top costume. Sadly not to many were at her meet & great after. Last year I was going thru a stack of music CD’s on my desk. I opened the cast to her CD and to our astonishment it was signed to us! We had totally forgot it was signed. The person was Lady GaGa!!!! you just can not make this stuff up!!!!

St. Pete Pride Around the Corner
St. Pete Pride 2012 is in full swing. There are ton’s of fun events planned. To see them all visit www.stpetepride.com . The Out on the Street Promenade and Super Inviting Street Festival is scheduled for Saturday, June 30th. The Parade starts at 9AM so plan on being there by 7-8AM. OMG that’s early!! Pancake Breakfast Benefit by Una Voce at MCC King of Peace and other breakfast goodies at Georgie’s Alibi! From a person with a float in many parades… this is also the most over whelming parade of all the parades. It would be a big relief to see barricades put in pace to protect the floats, marching units & viewers. Always an awesome Gold Star event for Tampa Bay and all of Florida. An anticipated record breaking attendees coming from all over the country will be here. It takes a full years planning with lot of time, energy, volunteers and management team to put such an extraordinary Blue Ribbon Festival in place.
With all that being said… did you know Mark & Carrie were at the very first St. Pete Pride organizational meeting with 14 others at Grand Central Station??? Together with Judy B Goode & Paul Thomas, Mark & Carrie hosted the very first St. Pete Pride fundraiser too. We have been in all the Pride Parades in the past & plan on continuing to be in the many future ones too. Happy St. Pete Pride Everybody!!!
Hmmm…. Maybe, Tampa should think about forming a committee for a PRIDE Celebration to Tampa again! (A different time period of course.)
