Took the standard walk alone, sigh. At 11 joined the AI interest group meeting. Rather inconclusive discussion of a proposed link-up between CH and the Stanford Robotics lab, where they want to study the use of robots in care for the elderly. Our COO Elvira joined the meeting but it isn’t clear to me what Stanford wants or what Elvira will ask for.
Had lunch, took a nap, then went to the auditorium and did the hour of prep work to set up for the evening’s show, Broadway at Channing. The decorating committee had done a great job, show posters all over the place. Lots of other people than me involved in this. Here is a quick shot of the audience, well over a hundred. Mary and Jerry are singing “Only Make Believe” from Showboat.
The show came off well, the audience was happy, lots of compliments afterward. There were multiple technical glitches, but none that stopped the show or were even noticed by the audience, so that was ok. Here’s me and Susan H doing “Supercallifragilistic”. Thanks for Roberta for the picture.
Had half a beer in the lobby and then went back in and spent 30 minutes cleaning up and putting shit away. This one seemed more stressful than prior shows. I’m glad to put it in the rearview mirror.
