Lidia @ Marry Harry

July 30, 2013

A big thank you to all who came to see Marry Harry last week.  We had a great time and learned so much from our amazing cast and audiences.  We’re so proud of Jillian Louis who won a NYMF Award for Outstanding Individual Performance as Sherri.  And the icing on the biscotti was Lidia Bastianich – the Queen of Italian Cuisine (pictured below with us and our cast) – who attended the show on Saturday night and gave us a thumbs up on her blog today.  Cheers – Michael and Dan
