Get Local: Benefit Performances of Little Wom...
Published on Wednesday, January 25, 2012 by caryn I vaguely remember attending one of my very first musicals with my mother. I was 8 or 9 and the show was Annie...I was hooked! At the time, I didn't know if I simply enjoyed the theater or actually wanted to be a part of it. One improv class in high school set me straight! Every chance I get I'm at the theater. And, it just so happens that one of my very good... Read More » -

Winter Revival At The Huntington Spa
Published on Monday, January 23, 2012 by caryn How are you doing on those resolutions? For me, it's a constant and conscious effort to make sure I'm taking care of myself through fitness, a healthy diet, improved sleep, and stress management. I have a fitness and nutrition plan and am still working out how I'm going to manage my time so that sleep takes a higher priority. And as far as stress management goes... Read More » -

Published on Friday, December 16, 2011 by caryn In January, Cirque du Soleil's OVO will debut under the big top at the Santa Monica Pier.

Bring It On: The Musical
Published on Monday, December 5, 2011 by caryn One of my favorite memories as a young, single woman were those last minute, impromptu visits to the theater (alone, at that). I've always been drawn to the arts, particularly musical theater, and at that time, dreamed of one day seeing a show on Broadway or in London. I've since seen numerous shows both on Broadway and in London, and while both are renowned for t... Read More » -

Published on Friday, November 11, 2011 by caryn Not only is it the most important meal of the day, it's my favorite meal of the day. Perhaps it's because breakfast is the meal where I see the most diversity. Frittatas, scones, muffins, waffles, granola, fruit...Yum! Up until a few years ago, I didn't know much about gluten intolerance and Celiac disease. Now I can list 10 or more people I know personally w... Read More » -
