This musical phenomenon comes to Theatr Clwyd for the first time thanks to Tip Top Productions.

 

Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber based on Old Possum’s Book Of Practical Cats by T.S. Eliot. “Prologue – Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats” additional material written by Trevor Nunn and Richard Stilgoe; ”Memory” additional material written by Trevor Nunn.

 

The Jellicle Cats come out to play on one special night of the year—the night of the Jellicle Ball. One by one they tell their stories to Old Deuteronomy, their wise and benevolent leader, who must choose one of the Cats to ascend to The Heaviside Layer and be reborn into a whole new Jellicle life. Among the candidates are the aging theatre cat, Gus; the rocker, Rum Tum Tugger; and the once-glamorous Grizabella, now but a faded memory of her former self.

 

Boasting a score that includes Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats, Mr. Mistoffelees and Memory, this compelling fable takes audiences to a fantastical world that can only exist in the theatre. Cats has been performed worldwide and translated into over 20 languages. The original West End production ran for 21 years and the original Broadway production ran for 18 years

Yay, I've got something NEW from 2022!

 

As described a little more in a new (4/22/22) Update posted in my Flickr profile (at flickr.com/people/99244229@N04/), I recently had my first opportunity to be fully en femme since before the pandemic. I'm now rolling out pics from this day, April 7, 2022, when I tried out a couple ensembles never before modeled. It was so great to finally re-engage myself as Grace again!

 

This is a snapshot taken from a short video I made, and you can find the youtube video posted at youtu.be/8etdIkT_phI.

 

As usual, I really enjoy coordinating attractive/sexy/cute outfits, and this one features:

* an Orsuncer "ombre platinum blonde" 26"-long wavy wig with bangs and black roots, from amazon;

* Steve Madden black "Quinne" quilted-leather zip-up platform ultra-high-heel ankle booties, from DSW (an old purchase, but I'd never taken pics in them til now);

* a Forever 21 black/cream gingham-print (grayish-appearing) woven miniskirt, unlined so I wore a black silk miniskirt slip underneath, which to my later embarrassment was visible a little in the back below my skirt's hem line (sorry for my faux pas!);

* an Ambiance Apparel black v-neck lace-up-back ribbed-knit rayon-blend sweater, from Forever 21;

* a BeltIsCool silver/clear patent leather-trimmed transparent jelly clear-PVC 2"-wide waist belt, from amazon;

* WeLoveColors black fishnet tights;

* a black/silver floral-print neck scarf, from Macys;

* a Betseyville black quilted-leather silver-hardware handbag, from JC Penney;

* Kiss imPRESS press-on french-tip fingernails, from Walmart;

* a silver/clear rhinestone-embellished lariat-design layered necklace with Y-front chain, from Forever 21; and

* silver/black bracelets, watch, rings & hoop earrings.

Green heron, getting a closer look.

Of all the abundant flowers in the Allan Gardens conservatory in Toronto, this pink tipped plant produced the most interesting photo.

White-tipped Dove was another Texas specialty I wanted to find on my research trips there over the last couple months.

Little Tern

The Little Tern is mainly white with a dark crown, pale grey back and upperwings. The eye is dark brown. When breeding, the bill is yellow, the crown black with a short, pointed white brow and the black eye-line reaches the bill. In non-breeding plumage, the crown is mottled with white and the bill blackish. The wing tips are two-toned grey to black on the outer primaries (flight feathers).

I spotted this Orange Tip butterfly on the drive at Yeldall Manor and had to chase round after it for a few minutes before it decided to rest for a moment... Near Hare Hatch, Berkshire, UK.

A first for me. A lovely Buff-tip moth resting on a thistle.

A few miles from my Morning Glory Chinle site, along the same cliffs, I found another location where a blue layer meets brown and red. It's not as scenic as the former but still intriguing.

 

Because it is near a railroad line, I call it the Railroad Blues.

So named because of the male's bright orange tips to his forewings. The males are a common sight in spring, flying along hedgerows and damp meadows in search of the more reclusive female which lacks the orange and is often mistaken for one of the other 'White' butterflies. The undersides are mottled green and white and create a superb camouflage when settled on flowerheads such as Cow Parsley and Garlic Mustard Alliaria petiolata. The male is able to hide his orange tips by tucking the forewings behind the hindwings at rest. On close examination of the mottling, the green colour can be seen to be made up of a mixture of black and yellow scales. The butterfly is found across Europe, and eastwards into temperate Asia as far as Japan.
