Burlesque by: Cherry Typhoon, Miss Sugarpuss, Seska Lee, The Lady Josephine, Sucre à la Crème and Penny Romanoff. -   We had rehearsal yesterday for two little comedy sketches featuring Cherry Typhoon as my Japanese cultural teacher.  What fun! My Japanese is awful. I hope I do not insult anyone. I am told that Japanese people are pleased when non-speakers just try to speak Japanese so I am hopeful for a good result. The sketch is quite silly and we are all afraid of cracking up. Its going to be tough! I will performing solo as well as a duo with Miss Sugarpuss.  It was the very first number we first did together back in 2007. She is moving from Montreal for an important theatre gig and I will miss her. I hope I don't cry during the number. I am weeper. Gosh! Crying! Laughing! Boobies! What a show! Not to be missed!
