by | September 26, 2011 | 20 Comments
This drama cracks me up; after a whole bunch of names were announced as probable cast members for Me Too, Flower!, each of those actors’ representatives came out hastily to say, No, the deal isn’t final yet, we’re not yet decided, there’s been no contract, wait no wait!

Ah, London…how do I miss thee. Afternoon Broadway shows at Picadilly Circus, window shopping at the coolest shops, the history and culture… Too bad their food never made it to my “like” list.
