We Got Mortified!
"Last night George and I went to the Mortified show in NY. We had the BEST time! We laughed until our sides ached. If you live near any of the cities currently producing Mortified shows catch one. (It's not a show for kids.) The audience last night was mainly 20-30 somethings. The couple next to us were married with three kids and having a date night. They loved it just like we did. I mean, we were all adolescents, right? And we all had those moments in our lives.
How I wish I'd kept my teen diaries with my secret code words so if my mother ever got her hands on it she wouldn't have a clue what I was writing about. (Ha!) I even kept a series of rubber bands wrapped around it (it had no lock and key -- it was one of those freebies sent out by insurance companies at Christmas time -- but it did have a hard cover) so I would be able to tell if my mother read it. I'm sure she did though she never admitted it. If you've saved your diaries, poems, songs, stories -- you, too, have a chance to get mortified.
Here are some of the performers who shared their adolescent angst with us last night. Yes, there were also guys in the show but they didn't make it into this pix. Thanks everyone! Thanks, too, to David N. who started the whole thing and invited us to be his guests. Dave, we'll meet up one of these days!

PS Meg, you'd love it!"
Mortified LOVES YOU TOO, JUDY! (and George!) I'll post more when I come down off of this cloud.
Love,
Anne

Such a great night!!! And you did such a fantastic job hosting Miss Anne.
It was hysterical and Anne was a fantastic M.C. Great job as I will now applaud in my office so people will think I'm strange... again.
Very cool, Anne!
I'm going to make it one of these days. I'm glad it went well.
Rock on Anne!
Holy crap! Congrats!
Nice work!
No way! Sweeeet!

if you ever get a chance to bend old judy's ear, ask her this:
"why did margret actually hope & pray to get her period? what girl in her right mind wants to deal with that mess???"
seriously, i've been wondering about that since 1980 when i read the damn book.
You're going to go places, young lady.
Warmest congrats. I hope that the phenomenon continues to grow.

Yo - this was a total coup, by the way.
