So what has The Countess been up to this past week?
The Countess has been staying in her treehouse out in the beautiful Berkshires for the past week. If it would just stop raining, we could enjoy the deck !!
Tony Awards night was spent at the Rumpy's Tavern party where I was awarded the Best Actress Tony for my role in "She's Running as Fast as She Can, While She Can!".
Ben, my bartender friend from Firefly, came in to see Ayla, who had come back from San Francisco to visit for a few days...
Justina, who had just arrived from London, came in with Darcie and Carlos....
The best part of the night came when Tony Lee Thomas and Jess Hume came in and gave us a free concert. Terrific!!
Always a party at Rumpy's Tavern !!
This past weekend found me at Michaels of Stockbridge for Karaoke night with some of my BTF pals.
Rolfe performed "Big Girls" and Sunshine and The Countess were his backup dancers!
Jason was visiting for the weekend from New York City and gave a dedication to The Countess when he sang his signature song "Total Eclipse of the Heart".
Lots of friends stopped in....even the fabulous actress Keira Naughton after her performance in Faith Healer at the Berkshire Theatre Festival that night.
C.J. Wilson joined the party after rehearsals for "The Einstein Project" which will be playing at BTF starting on June 30th. C.J. and Keira were both in "The Book Club Play" last year.
Saturday night was spent attending a performance of The Royal Berkshire Improv Troupe. They were hysterically funny, entertaining, and just so inventive with bringing audience suggestions to life in their skits. You can check them out in their blog.
Our party filled two tables at Dottie's Coffee Lounge in Pittsfield.
We all went for drinks at Jae's Spice with the Troupe after their performance. In spite of a torrential rain storm that hit the area just as we were leaving Dottie's, it was a fun, fun night.
Next weekend is opening night for "Broadway by the Year" at the Berkshire Theatre Festival! Get your tickets and join The Countess for another fabulous night at the theater.
