The interview was set to begin around 7:30, and at 7:00, Gary the producer called me up to do a sound check, and to make sure my phone connection was clear, and we could all hear each other. This went swimmingly, and afterwards, I got to hang up and put my kids to bed. Sidenote: currently, Phillip is insistant on hearing Where the Wild Things Are each night at bedtime, while Joseph refuses to sleep without hearing Goodnight Moon. Hailey doesn't care so long as she's read to.
Around 7:40, the station called me back, and after a few initial sound glitches, the interview started. We ended up talking for over a half hour. Both Tony and Gary were involved, and I was asked about everytthing from my inspiration, to what I liked to read, to my education. It felt more like a conversation than a formal interview. I had a lot of fun doing it. We also did a give away of a couple of copies of The Strings of the Violin over the course of the show.
Next up, tomorrow evening I go into my first rehearsal for Fiddler on the Roof! My return to the stage after two years! I hope I remember how to dance...
