Did not win a MAT award

The Metropolitan Atlanta Theater Awards ceremony last night was a lot of fun, despite not winning. Got to see a lot of people I had been in other plays with. Still, I am very please to have been nominated. There were, I think, 27 productions reviewed and over 500 people involved with those productions.

Of the two plays that I was in that were judged, Breaking Legs and A Christmas Story, there we 10 nominations and the winners were:

Wally Hinds – Best Set Design for a Play – Breaking Legs

Murray Mann – Best Sound Design for a Play – A Christmas Story

Martha Kennedy – Best Minor Supporting Actress in a Play – Miss Shields – A Christmas Story

People I have been with in other plays who won:

Barbara McFann – Major Supporting Actress in a Play – Mrs. Baker – Come Blow Your Horn at ACT1 Theater.

David Shelton with Rob Roy Hardie and Kelly Lane – Best Sound Design for a Musical – Little Shop of Horrors at Kudzu Playhouse.

  • OK. done with the out of the house errands. Now to finish updates to web redesign. #
  • For what it’s worth, the redesigned acting site is up. The blog will take a while to convert. There are some tweaks to make also, but… #
  • And some IE tweaks. I really do hope IE8 works better than it’s predecessors. #
  • I am not totally happy with the javascript I am using, but it will do for now. #

  • The MAT Awards are less than a month away. Need to rent a tux. I seem to recall from decades back, rentals took a while to arrive. #
  • The Wife wants to wear this: http://tinyurl.com/5hw7pw I suppose my tux needs to be equally goth. #
  • I do not want to write test cases today. Maybe a little trance from di.fm will motivate me. #
  • Good lunch, Markus Schulz on DI.FM and Armin Van Buuren after after that. Work, at the moment, is good. #
  • Yikes. I have crashed mentally. Some would say “so what has changed”. I am out of any Tea that I want to drink. #
  • Over the past few weeks, received sympathy cards on the loss of my cat Einstein. A nice one came from the vet and office who also loved him. #
  • Still miss my Einstein. The Wife is traveling and stopped at a place we stopped at on our last vacation, when we took Einstein with us. #
  • The Wife, and probably me as well, is planning on getting a tattoo of Einstein. I would like to have all my cats tattoo’d. On me not them. #
  • Anyone know of a good tattoo artist who can do animals. Pref Atlanta area. #
