With an event tonight that might need the head-mounted microphones, I suddenly remembered that the little reel of surgical tape, which we use to secure an over-the-ear mic to a performer’s cheek, had disappeared from the AV desk in the auditorium. So I set out to get a replacement, walking to CVS, and when they didn’t have exactly what I wanted, I took a Lyft to Midtown to look in the Walgreens there. While I was there I checked out the new coffee shop that has opened across the street from a very well-established coffee shop. It’s ok.
The event was a play, a one-hour condensed version of Little Women, performed by the G.I.F.T. group of teens. They have been here twice before (day 4.217 and 4.245) with other shows. They are always energetic, talented, and likeable. The director of this show (and the prior one), Rose, is an amazing leader, with complete control over her troupe of a dozen teens. I was startled to learn that she is only 17, too. Seventeen going on 35, as they say. Anyway I just had to set the auditorium sound system up and hand everything to Rose and her team to run the show.
