REVIEW #2 OF THE DROWSY CHAPERONE…..…Guess what folks? Bob and I went to see this show at The Waterfront Playhouse again last Thurs. night….and it was even more stupendous than it was the first time we saw it on opening night! We sat in the very last row in the theater, and it was a sight to behold! I tell you….if you do not see this show, and you miss it, it really would be a crying shame! It has to go on record as being one of the all time greatest shows ever presented on the Waterfront Stage, and in fact, in all of Key West EVER!!!! It really is pure magic… the perfect cast who sing and dance their way right into your hearts! The set, by genius, Michael Boyer is sensational! It will amaze and delight you, as the stage has a whole life of its own in this show! When you see it…and you better!!!…you will know exactly what I mean! The shining stars in this show are all First Rate!!

The creative team includes, Michael Boyer, set design…Michael Fauss, musical director…lighting by Kim Handson, props & costumes, by Carmen Rodriguez, and stage manager, Trish Manley. The costumes are gorgeous and were rented from Maine State Music Theater…..Leigh Hooten and Carmen and Ruth Cahoon have been making sure these fab period costumes look dazzling and they ARE spectacular!!!!

THE ARIES PERSONALITY…MARCH 21 THROUGH APRIL 20

It is hard to ignore the Arien….they have so much personality and vitality, making them the sort of people who like to be noticed! They hate taking back seat in life and will do anything to prevent it! They are natural leaders, not followers. The last thing any Arien wants to do is carry out other people’s orders or be at their beck and call. They loathe being just one of the crowd, and this attitude doesn’t change as they get older. They have to be in control of situations and do not like it one bit when it is the other way around. Life is very black & white for Ariens, with no grey area. They are very idealistic, and always have high expectations that things will turn out well. They have a burning desire to achieve…have an infectious enthusiasm and an adventurous spirit. An Arien without a goal is a sad sight, as they are lost without anything to aim for. They are easy to lose their tempers but it is all over in a flash. One minute they may be shouting their heads off and the next they have forgotten all about it. They do have a problem with bluntness…they like to tell it like it is and this sometimes leads to hurt feelings when they go too far and do not realize the impact of their words. They are outspoken….and if they curb that it would take so much fun out of things! In love, they dream of fairytale romances…they love the thrill of the chase, often finding it the most exciting part of a relationship….often cooling off when they get what they want. Their generous spirit and warm personality make them wonderful friends and delightful lovers. Sex is very important to them and they enjoy a very physical relationship with their partners. They have the utmost faith and trust in people. They fall in love easily and invest everything in their lover. Their hearts are shattered whn that partner fails to live up to their expectations. They have a tendency to put loved ones on a pedestal, thinking they can do no wrong. All is great while they are on that pedestal but the moment they turn out to be human, the Arien is crushed and let down and in lots of pain. However, Ariens do not learn from their mistakes and often repeat them over and over again! The best signs for an Aries are Capricorn, Gemini, and Scorpio. In careers, the Arien cannot be tied down as they are free spirits. They must have a job with room to breathe. They hate having a job which requires them to account for their every action. They will become bored and frustrated in these situations. They prefer being self-employed because most Ariens have a low opinion of their higher ups. Their competitive nature makes them natural freelancers…they love coming up with new ideas. Jobs like engineering, mechanics, the armed services, and sports appeal to Ariens They are better at dreaming up ideas than in following them. They cannot live without money…love spending it and are suckers for impulse buys. They love spending on cars, special bikes, and are attracted to speed and danger. They are also very generous and spend lots of money on friends and loved ones. Saving money is not as interesting to an Arien as spending it. They live for today and not to morrow!

WE LOVE OUR ARIEN FRIENDS AND FAMILY MEMBERS!!!!

Please read the lists below and take time to add their names to your datebooks so you can reach out to them on their special days!!!
