A Night at the 'Oprah'...

Some of my Boston friends had already seen "Phantom of the Oprah" and had told me that I just HAD to see it for myself.  They were right!  It is only playing for one more week so if you want to split your sides laughing and see great acting and singing, get over to Machine and see this show while you still have a chance.

There is nothing I can say to add to the accolades already bestowed upon Varla Jean Merman.  She is an incredible talent with an incredible voice.  All the cast is just wonderful!  And kudos to Ryan Landry who wrote the book and lyrics and plays Madame Cunte (that is pronounced Koon-tay, please!). 

Oprah had several celebrity guests in the show and The Countess was so thrilled to be introduced to Liza.....


My beautiful young friend, Johanne, came with me and we got t-shirts!!


Also in our party are Barry and Paul....


After the show we went to the Encore Lounge, a wonderful piano bar in the theater district.  Barry is a world famous pianist and one of his friends was playing the piano at the lounge last night.  With a little encouragement Barry took a turn at the piano and sang a couple of songs....



Barry is opening at the Beachfire Bar & Grille in Ogunquitt, Maine, next Saturday.

Thanks to Johanne, Barry, and Paul for a fun night out on the town in Boston!
