READ THE GREAT STORY IN THE CT POST (Thursday, August 18, 2011)

In Hamlet they meld Shakespeare’s famous language with modern musical artists, such as Queen, Death Cab for Cutie, Jeff Buckley, Evanescence, Celine Dion, and Johnny Cash.

Threads of a Spider Web, a world premiere written by LWT’s own Director of Education, and with original music by Carol Taubl, explores the interwoven lives of strangers as they consider love, loss, acceptance, and the question of what might have been.

The company is comprised of Danielle Bonanno (Ellington), Jessica Coppola (North Haven), Chelsea Dacey (Wallingford), Nina Dicker (Old Saybrook), Bowen Kirwood (Orange), Jane Logan (Branford), Anthony Rockford (New Haven), Ryan Ronan (West Haven), Marisa Sullivan (Wallingford), Jack Taubl (New Haven), James Taubl (New Haven), Jeremiah Taubl (New Haven), Sam Taubl (New Haven), Kira Topalian (Milford), Erik Van Eck (Ivoryton), and Dawn Williams (Trumbull).

Mommy Camp

Sometimes in life things run smoothly and everything’s peachy.  And then, sometimes, it’s just not.  Might you guess in which category I fall this month?  Yes, month.

See, I’m a planner.  A do-er.  I like to think it’s one of my best qualities…but know that it can also be my worst enemy, particularly when things just aren’t going my way.  Welcome to my August.  I’ll spare you the details (a phrase I’m using way too often lately), but to make a long story short: I had other plans for August.  But instead, I’ve found us living in a constant state of Plan B.

Welcome to Mommy Camp.  Mommy Camp is me with two kids, all day, everyday and no real plans.  It’s me thinking on my feet.  It’s me wondering what today’s road block will be, because I’m telling you, they just keep coming.  It’s me pulling my Mommy-self up by my bootstraps every morning and repeating the Mommy Camp mantra, “Remember, they’re yours to keep forever, so be nice.”  :)  Thought I’d share some things I’ve pieced together after nearly 2 weeks of full-on Mommy Camp.  Some days it’s felt like a really bad episode of Survivor and other days it’s felt like what Summer is supposed to feel like!
