Teacher brag moment: Today I had 3 of my students compete in the Chicago Chapter National Association of Teachers of Singing competition and each of them took 1st place! So very proud of them and all of our @depaulsom students that took part.
I just found these pictures of seeing @karenmziemba in Bullets Over Broadway back in 2014. Loved finding the picture of Valerie Perri holding Mr Woofles the dog and the back of Marin Mazzie’s head. RIP.
Got to go backstage with @liselindstromsoprano to visit Karen after the show. Meeting these Broadway legends will always be a very fond memory. ❤️
If they can manufacture a war and use religion to justify it, they will do the same for the rape, abuse and child trafficking of children. This country needs to wake up and see that the GOP is willing to burn this country to the ground to shield wealthy men and to make millions while our members of service are murdered. This is EVIL.
Hi, this is SOPHIE. I want you to know It’s my Christoph Dad’s birthday today and Scotty Daddy wanted me to tell you to say HBD to him. I think HBD means “having big dreams” since I’m an expert napper, but it could also mean Happy Birthday I’m told. 😻 Happy Birthday @cinthecityofficial !
