bethlakshmiSo, I've been performing my head off with the Babydolls. My house looks like a Burlesque dancer has totally lost her mind. I have pasties on the coffee table, glitter in the hallway, and costumes in all phases of construction draped here, there and everywhere. :)
Meantime, work has been very fun. They denied my Agile attempts - mostly because "we've never done THAT before" but also because when the customer signed the contract, we implied a non-Agile process. And it's a radical enough change to be something the customer should get to choose. I'm still pondering ways to insert some Agile techniques into our world - like test driven development. But mostly I'm hanging on for the ride. There is so much to do and never enough time to do it. I have my feet in both worlds - management and technical. But I rather like that.
But... that's not what I wanted to tell you about. I wanted to let you know that all our energy for our longer runs of Out for Blood are now focused into one killer night of Halloween Spirit!
There is an e-Postcard for the show at http://www.bostonbabydolls.net/images/oct07-forweb.jpg

CIRKESTRA joins The Boston Babydolls for a show that will scare your pants off (or our pants off anyway)!
The creaking calliope, the mournful wail of the black accordion, and the shriek of the haunted violin — it must be CIRKESTRA!. If you've never had the pleasure of hearing this group that "swings like a drunken carnie" (7 Days) you're in for a special Halloween treat.
And there are treats galore at this super spooky edition of The Dollhouse. Come in costume and save $2.00 on your admission — plus everyone gets a burlesque goodie bag. This won't rot your teeth, kids!
Doors open at 8 p.m. Get there early for the best seats. Cirkestra goes on at 8:30 p.m., the boo-tiful ghouls of the Boston Babydolls rise from the grave at 9:30 p.m.
