#Diane Healy

[mayasdeluca]

I love Tracie Thoms as Diane and it would make more sense for her to become a series regular over someone like Pat Healy/Dixon since she's actually a firefighter. But aside from that, the purpose of this message was to say if Tracie wasn't cast as Diane, I think they could've cast her as Vic's sister.

I would love for her to be a series regular...more Diane would be wonderful and there's so much they could do with her, especially if they did more Crisis One stuff since that's Vic's thing now. They definitely could be casted as sisters! Just like Lachlan would've been the perfect choice as Mason because he and Danielle look like siblings too haha.

Jokes 9/29/23

The Writers Guild of America and the AMPTP have reached a tentative agree to end the months long strike. The AMPTP made a deal after seeing how fast the country turned on Drew Barrymore for crossing the picket line.

Following the deal with the Writers Guild of America, several late night talk shows have announced their return, much to Jimmy Fallon’s staff’s dismay.

90 year old California Senator, Diane Fienstein passed away today. Thoughts and preys go out to her staffers who will need to find a new old person to puppet around for clout.

This week was the 2nd Republican Presidential debate. You might not have heard about it because it only happened because Fox News had a gap in its programming.

Tomorrow, the United States government is expected to shut down, all because a deal couldn’t be reached between everyone in the house and a handful of delusional republicans.

President Biden joined striking auto workers on the picket lines this week. This is the first time a sitting president has joined an active picket line and hopefully garnered enough goodwill for people to forget about last years rail road workers strike.

After 23 years, police have made an arrest in the murder of rapper, Tupac Shakur. I’m not saying there’s a racially motivated bias, but I’m pretty sure they caught the guy who shot John Lennon that same afternoon.

A judge in New York has found the Trump organization liable of fraud. Former President Trump responded to the ruling by denying he lied about his actual wealth and by telling his supporters the only way he can fight this is through their donations.

Russia announced this week that for the first time, they’ll begin conscripting soldiers from the occupied areas of Ukraine. This is expected to backfire since even the Russians that were conscripted had no interest in fighting against Ukraine either.

Singer, Taylor Swift is reportedly dating the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, Travis Kelce. It just goes to show that if you want to date someone like Taylor Swift all you have to do is win two Super Bowls and be one of the greatest Tight End of all time, or be Matt Healy.

The Santa Rosa Hitchhiker Murders

The Santa Rosa hitchhiker murders were a series of seven or more unsolved murders involving female hitchhikers in Sonoma County and Santa Rosa, California in 1972 and 1973. All victims were found nude in rural areas.

Maureen Louise Sterling, 12-years-old, and Yvonne Lisa Weber, 13-years-old, were school students who disappeared on 4th February 1972. Their bodies were found on 28th December 1972, the cause of death could not be established due to the advanced state of decomposition.

On 4th March 1972, 19-year-old Kim Wendy Allen went missing while hitchhiking. Her body was found the next day. An autopsy confirmed Kim had been bound, raped and strangled. Semen was recovered from the body.

Lori Lee Kursa was a 13-year-old student who was reported missing on 11th November 1972. Lori was a frequent hitchhiker. Her frozen remains were found in a ravine on 14th December 1972. She had died from a broken neck and had not been raped. Authorities suspected Lori was kidnapped or forced into a vehicle and has fell or jumped out, causing her to break her neck and fall into the ravine.

On 15th July 1973, Carolyn Nadine Davis was reported missing. She was known to have been hitchhiking when she went missing. Her body was discovered on 31st July 1973 mere feet away from where earlier victims Maureen and Yvonne were found. A twig figure found near the body was initially used to connect the case to witchcraft however this was discredited later when it was argued to figure had no meaning or connection to the murder.

Theresa Diane Smith Walsh, 23-years-old, was last seen on 22nd December 1973. Her body was found 6 days later, she had been sexually assaulted and strangled to death.

The unidentified body of a young female was found on July 1979 close to where Lori’s body had earlier been found. The victim was never identified.

In 1975, the FBI issued a report stating that 14 unsolved homicides, including the 6 above victims were committed by the same murderer. The crimes remain unsolved and the cases are now cold.

Ted Bundy was suspected in the murders and some of the victim’s families remain convinced Bundy was the killer. The killings fit his methods and many have suspected that Bundy began killing before his first known murder of Lynda Healy in 1974. Bundy was known to have spent time in a neighbouring county. Credit card records and known whereabouts of Bundy’s have since shown him to be in Washington on some of the dates of the disappearances.

The unapprehended Zodiac Killer was also named a suspect although none of the Zodiac's confirmed kills involved rape which cast doubt on his responsibility for these murders. Kenneth Bianchi and Angelo Buono, the Hillside Stranglers were also suspected of the crimes.

Jagged Live In NYC: A Broadway Reunion Concert - a global livestream of the one-night-only onstage reunion of the Broadway cast - will have a special Encore Airing on Saturday, March 6 at 7:00PM ET.

This encore event will benefit the charitable organizations RAINN, Learn to Cope, GLAAD and Color of Change. Available exclusively on the premium streaming platform Stellar (www.stellartickets.com), worldwide audiences will now have one more chance to experience a night of searing performances from Tony Award nominees Elizabeth Stanley, Celia Rose Gooding, Sean Allan Krill, Derek Klena, Lauren Patten, Kathryn Gallagher, Antonio Cipriano, and more, alongside the Jagged Little Broadway Band. The concert will also be followed by a special live Q&A session with members of the musical's cast.

Tickets to the encore stream of the event are free, with a suggested donation that will directly support the vital work of these charitable organizations: RAINN, the nation's largest anti-sexual violence organization. (rainn.org); Learn to Cope, a non-profit support network offering education and resources for parents and family members coping with a loved one addicted to opiates or other drugs (learn2cope.org); GLAAD, a dynamic media force that tackles tough issues to shape the narrative, provoke dialogue and rewrite the script for LGBTQ acceptance (glaad.org); and Color of Change, the nation's largest online racial justice organization, helping people respond effectively to injustice in the world (colorofchange.org).

On December 13, 2020, the 15-time Tony-nominated Broadway cast of Jagged Little Pill safely reunited on stage at Shubert Studios in New York City, for the first time since the global health crisis caused a suspension of live theater performances in March. Directed by Tony Award winner Diane Paulus, Jagged Live In NYC: A Broadway Reunion Concert delivered an electrifying dose of much-needed collective joy through the Grammy-winning songbook of Alanis Morissette - streaming directly into thousands of living rooms across the world, and becoming one of Stellar's most successful programs to date. In the spirit of the #SaveOurStages movement, the December presentation of the concert event directly supported the nation's vulnerable venues experiencing catastrophic revenue loss during this time of suspension for live arts. Partner performing arts centers and regional theaters across the nation sold concert tickets to their subscribers and single ticket buyers ahead of the general public on-sale, and kept a portion of proceeds from those sales to support their future programming.

Nominated for 15 Tony Awards including Best Musical, Jagged Little Pill is inspired by seven-time Grammy Award winner Alanis Morissette's seminal album of the same name, which recently celebrated its 25th Anniversary. Directed by Tony Award winner Diane Paulus (Waitress, Pippin), Jagged Little Pill features an original story by Academy Award-winning writer Diablo Codya??(Juno, Tully) that takes a fearless look at what it means to be alive in 21st century America.

Starring in Jagged Little Pill as The Healys - a seemingly perfect family, who strives to hide the cracks beneath the surface when a troubling event shakes their community - are Tony nominees Elizabeth Stanley as "Mary Jane," Sean Allan Krill as "Steve", Celia Rose Gooding as "Frankie" and Derek Klena as "Nick"; alongside Tony nominee & Outer Critics Circle Award winner Kathryn Gallagher as "Bella," Tony nominee & Drama Desk Award winner Lauren Patten as "Jo," and Antonio Cipriano as "Phoenix," all of whom reprise their roles on Broadway from the musical's record-breaking, sold-out world premiere at American Repertory Theater. Variety hails the cast as "Triumphant! Not Since Rent has a musical invested so many bravura roles with so much individual life."

Tickets are free, with a suggested donation to partner charities, and are available now at www.stellartickets.com. Ticketholders will be able to stream the show on any computer browser (laptop or desktop), mobile web, the Stellar Android or iOS app, or on TV via the Stellar app on Apple TV, Fire TV, and Roku.

The Worst Kind of After School Special

The hand on the playbill is choking all life out of Jagged Little Pill

There’s a lot going on in this musical so trying to figure out where to start with this is going to be as messy as this show.

You know what? We’ll start with what I liked. Get those small bits and pieces out of the way.

Alanis Morrissette is an absolutely incredible singer/songwriter and has written albums worth of amazing music that is highly specific to her life and yet feels highly specific to our own. Her songs are infused with a beautiful brand of theatricality that made me surprised she hasn’t lent them to the medium before now. That being said, of course the songs in the show are great. They’re from Jagged Little Pill! The orchestrations as well were super solid. I really trust Tom Kitt with these kinds of things, especially after the master orchestration he did with American Idiot. 

Lauren Patten is just as good as everyone says she is. While I had some issues with her character (will discuss this later) I loved seeing Patten get a chance to shine. I really enjoyed her performance in last year’s Days of Rage and thought she was even better in this. Her performance felt so full and rich and completely vulnerable. Of course her rendition of “You Oughta Know” is completely awesome, and the way she started off the song completely calm and composed while already belting out the notes was really lovely to see.

There was only one characters I really truly loved and that was Mary Jane Healy, as played spectacularly by Elizabeth Stanley. Everything MJ did was far more interesting than literally anything else on that stage. Her story was interesting, fresh and unique. It felt the most honest of the plot lines by far. I was so interested in everything that happened to her and her husband Steve (an underutilized Sean Allan Krill) and yet the show quickly glossed by all of their most uncomfortable moments in favor the far less interesting high school aged characters. Stanley was truly incredible and I loved every second she was onstage. Her “Smiling” and “Unforgiven” were truly the highlights of the show.

Occasionally there was some interesting staging, one of them being this cool spinning in chairs moment during “Ironic,” which should have involved main characters Frankie and Phoenix but was instead used with an unnamed teacher character who was in exactly one (1) scene. The spinning swing set for “Head Over Feet” was also cute, if not a little precarious. I was worried Antonio Cipriano was going to topple off of it the whole time. (Side Note: He’s listed on the website as Ensemble but he definitely had a named character) The staging of “Smiling” was super cool and was the one moment in the show where I thought Diane Paulus was going to do something really incredible. I don’t want to spoil it, but it’s a really cool moment. 

Alas.

Diane Paulus really can’t stage new musicals. All of her revivals are divine but there’s something about new material that just doesn’t work quite right. She throws a lot at the wall, and only some of it sticks. It felt very haphazardly directed, with a bunch of different stylistic things happening that didn’t go together. She had time to see what worked/didn’t at the out of town tryout and still chose not to make the show cohesive, which is disappointing. 

However, my biggest problem with the show is the show itself. It’s messy, introduces a million different plots and characters and resolves very little. Because of this, characters were paper thin and I didn’t feel like I knew any of them besides one or two little facts. This led to me honestly not caring that much about 90% of those characters.

The primary example of this is the brother character played by Derek Klena. His name is Nick, but I had to look that up to make sure because for the life of me I had no idea who his character was. I knew he was Derek Klena, so whenever he was on stage my brain went “Oh there’s Derek Klena.” He’s perfectly fine in the show, but not only is he barely in it, he has absolutely nothing to do. I don’t really know much about his character besides “Harvard” and he very, very easily could have been taken out. Nothing about the plot would have changed. Actually, this would have given us a better opportunity to dive deeper into the other characters, who, even though we still didn’t know, affected the plot in a more prominent way. 

Jo is an interesting character in that she’s one of the best performances in the show and has some of the best lines, but altogether only affects one plot point and is forced into doing so. Let me explain. “You Oughta Know” is the third best moment in the show, but it is entirely dependent on Jo previously breaking and entering into Frankie’s house, finding something out she shouldn’t have, and then ending up in NYC because the plot said she had to. The song should’ve been moved up to either the beginning of Act Two or the very end of Act One, because as of now it kind of comes out of nowhere. Anyways, I feel like if Lauren Patten wasn’t as good as she is, Jo would’ve ended up on the cutting room floor somewhere. 

I had this problem with a lot of the characters, actually, just about all of them. Everyone was extremely half-baked. 

First of all, there’s The Frankie Problem. Frankie is an activist and adopted and bisexual. That’s all we know about her. Does she like anything? What cause specifically motivates her? She’s an activist in the most generic term. Helen Shaw from Vulture wrote something really good about Frankie’s character, which, to sum it up, basically said Frankie is super self-important and annoying but she’s not supposed to be. We’re supposed to love Frankie, but I really didn’t like her at all. Also, nothing she does makes sense. She picks a fight with literally everyone over every single thing. Likewise, SPOILER, she cheats on her girlfriend/friend/it’s-complicated-because-it’s-never-explained relationship with Jo and fights with her mother MJ and just runs away to New York and makes a situation about a character named Bella allllll about her because she can. I wanted to know what Frankie cared about. You can say “activism!” but what specifically. Most activists have a very specific cause they especially champion, but I didn’t know what that was for Frankie. She seemingly cared about everything, but she mostly cared about herself.

This leads to the The Frankie and Phoenix Problem. This is also SPOILERS but Frankie falls very in love with Phoenix very fast and as soon as she sleeps with him for the first time she tells him she loves him, and, then, when he can’t say it back, she says this whole self-important thing about being impossible to love. However! Right before he was telling her how he was busy because he was trying to help with his sick sister! We also know extraordinarily little about Phoenix, and he kind of comes out of nowhere, so it’s tough to root for him when we’ve already had “Hand in my Pocket” to establish the Frankie and Jo connection.

On the plus side, Celia Rose Gooding, who plays Frankie, is wonderful and I look forward to seeing what she does in the future. 

I really don’t know how to approach Bella’s character, because the show clearly didn’t either. This is a big spoiler, but she is raped at a party and one of the many plots of the show is about this. However, she isn’t really in the show all that much. We have no idea who she is. She’s friends with Nick, but not very. She eerily appears in the light sometimes around MJ and she has one scene with MJ, but how much they try to tie these two characters doesn’t work. I wish Bella was a character we knew more. I almost wish she was Jo, or even Frankie. If we look at the characters as tiers, with MJ and Frankie being Tier 1, Jo, Nick and Steve being Tier 2, she would be on Tier 3, along with Andrew (???) and Phoenix. She is The Girl Who Was Raped, which was actually kind of offensive. 

As for the rape scene itself, they do show it in flashback. That is something you should know going into the show. It was not handled well. Also, the person who raped her (I think his name was Andrew??) is in the show for exactly two minutes. I actually thought a different character had raped her because we have no idea who anyone is. 

So that’s all my story qualms. 

The show utilizes this dance chorus that is absolutely obnoxious and distracting and takes away from literally every scene. They come in out of nowhere and make every single song (literally!!) a big song and dance production number, which greatly took away from the story. Every time I saw them start to dance into the scene I internally was like “wait no! stay away!” 

I mean it when I say

every

single

song

was a huge production number. And we didn’t need it! It actually took away from the emotional impact they were supposed to have! Likewise, there was only one solo in the entire show! Every single other song was shared between multiple characters. I think they did this because they had too many characters and had to give everyone something to do but every time it happened, the main character singing it lost some of their needed emotional impact. 

If I had my way, I would cut the ensemble in half and only use them in half the songs. The dancing was far too much and it made the story messy and it made the stage far too busy. It wasn’t even that good either. There were some nice moments, but overall it didn’t work. It was distracting and dare I say it bad. 

At the end of the day, the show was “woke” for the sake of being woke. It wanted so badly to say something that it ended up saying nothing. To be honest, the amount of “wokeness” felt performative and not genuine in the slightest. It felt like an after school special in the worst kind of way. The teens weren’t people but caricatures of teenagers. 

I really wanted to like Jagged Little Pill. I love writer Diablo Cody and I love Alanis Morrissette. This should have been amazing, but instead it fell flat. A show that should have been filled with life felt like a well structured after school television special. And All I Really Want(ed) was something with more grit

Songs Inspired. It's Not Living if it's Not With You // 1975

Where do songs come from? And where do they go when we're not watching them? Although there's really no telling what can inspire a song into this world from nothing, one girl (I) takes on the responsibility that literally nobody asked her (me) to do- analyze your favorite songs for possible influences (and we'll all learn a little bit about ourselves on the journey there... cue the Full House sentimental underscore.)

To get this out off the bat- it's not shocking that synth-friendly soft rock band the 1975 has an overall tone of 1980s Miami workout video prompting you to jog in place with some bopping bass licks and metallic guitar; this is their overarching aesthetic. With them, you gotta learn to look past the 90s paper cup design outer layer, because this is a band with some authentic lyrical and melodic prowess that digs down to a deeper, more soulful level than they would have you think at first glance.     When this particular song kicks off with its airy guitar licks, it's easy to assume that this bop could take a turn for "My girlfriend doesn't like the vodka I stole for her... eternal cute and mild angst!!" But to this reviewer's surprise, the 1975 put out a piece with richer layers than that (a fine baklava of sorts.) This is true of the entire album A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships- "If I Believe You" will kick you in the neck if you're expecting another "Chocolate." Anyways, guard your loins, and let's get back to "It's Not Living-"     As many who follow the 1975 know, this track is frontman Matt Healy's perspective on his feelings toward Heroin. Not that you would have to avidly follow the band to wrap your mind around the intent here; the song lyrics make the underlying subject transparent- "Got a 20-stone monkey that I just can't beat" pretty much tips any wayfaring listener off.    

With it's upbeat ode to a drug-lationship- at first take of this song originally struck me as a darker nod back to McCartney's screamingly happy love song to weed "Got to Get You Into My Life."  The thing is; while maybe initial inspiration could have come from "Got to Get You.." and while both songs do have in common (other than their long titles) is that they've written a song in a tone usually reserved for romance or sexual feelings toward a drug- the relationships with the drugs are foils, and so are the tones of the love songs themselves.    

"Got to Get You Into My Life" is courting, the yearning and excitement of new romance, while looking forward to a new life together. "It's Not Living" has all of the yearning with none of the courting or excitement, and significantly seems to be dragging it's narrator back in time while they weakly plead to move on. And when it's put like that- the second layer of this song reveals that there are two deep influences at play here.    

Generally, although the signature pastel cloud is on top of everything sonically; looking at the lyrics alone reveals a sardonic twist on classic 50s pop love songs (I need you! I want you! Can't live without you!) with the repeating and saccharine sweet hook "It's not living if it's not with you" and campy lead-ins "It's true that! All I do is sit and think about you!"    

Meanwhile, the song rather shockingly kicks off with a third person story structure ("Danny ran into some complications") which inspires thoughts back to the power ballad story songs of the 80s (This is a story... of Jack and Diane...) Although upon some retrospective rationalization; I, too, would prefer to write something so raw as if it were someone else's story (This same tactic is also how Bundy finally admitted to murdering all those people, food for thought.)    

And in the vein of this, it's worth noting that this track is not a parody of the old school pop love songs nor is it a parody of the 80s epic story songs, it's a genuine rib out of each, absolutely nailing the understated but screamingly yearning lyrics of the oom-bop classics with lines "distract my brain from the terrible news/ it's not living if it's not with you" (Seriously, sit with that one for a few seconds and tell me you don't feel a pang in your stomach) in a fully executed spin from the prior verse's longer form storytelling

“And Danny says we're living in a simulation/ But he works in a petrol station (Selling petrol)/ He says it all began with his operation/ And I know you think you're sly but you need some imagination.”

Surprisingly, neither tactic seems campy or hack; because the thing about music is no matter the genre sincerity comes through. And they nailed it here. Underneath all of the millennial glossing is the yearning, burning, humanity that brings great music into this world. Which, again, is true of not only this song but much of this album where underneath the shimmering production are true blue soul tracks that has the thirteen year old in me screaming for acoustic covers of this whole package (...Youtubers in music school with cameras on your pianos, where you at??) Is this one of my new favorite songs? New favorite album? When did this happen? Why am I lightly jogging in place and holding this 90s paper cup? And that's how they get you.
