The Witches of Eastwick start their flight at Signature Theatre. Tonight is their first preview, and I am sending them good and positive energy and thoughts. My Matty is in the show, as well as many local favorites such as Erin Driscoll, Tom Simpson, Amy McWilliams, Sherri Edelen and many others.
The musical version is much closer to John Updike's book, from what I hear (meaning darker). I did LOVE the film growing up, and it is a film that I frequently watch to this very day, so I can't wait to go and see it soon.
More later when I do!

SUMMER CAMP
Just because you spend your afternoons in meetings and have a 401K doesn't mean you can no longer go to camp in the summers like you used to as a child. Beginning this Thursday, The Hirshhorn Museum kicks off its summer "camp" series. But instead of canoeing and nature hikes, this camp is a film festival of campy B-movies. The 1958 "Queen of Outer Space," starring Zsa Zsa Gabor as a scientist, is the first film in the weekly cycle, followed the next week by 1958's "Attack of the 50 Foot Woman" and culminating June 28 with the definitive 1968 campy sci-fi flick "Barbarella," starring Jane Fonda as a swinging intergalactic adventuress. The movies are free and begin at 8 p.m. each Thursday in the museum's Ring Auditorium. For more information, visit http://hirshhorn.si.edu/programs/films.asp.
And see yesterday's ARTS section in the NYTimes about "The Blob" and horror movies that go straight to DVD.
