cuss the zoningchange.
The hearingwill take place at7 p.m. Thursday,April3, inCouncilChambers, 8236W. Main St.; theregular CityCouncil meetingwill immediately
follow.The parking lot addition, a
former residence at 11 SunsetDrive directly behind the mar-ket, was discussed at the Feb. 18Planning and Zoning Commis-sion meeting, but residents andsome City Council members areconcerned that not many peoplewho live on the street knew
about that hearing.Property owner Jim New-
man, one of the Parkview Mar-ket’s owners, applied to changetheSunset lot’s zoning fromRes-idential to Highway Commer-cial.

Sunset Drive resident JackieShaw said the heavy snowfalland cars parked in front of thesign meant residents couldn’tsee the sign to advertise thehearing.
“The people I spoke to had noidea what was going on,” saidShaw.
City Council member BarbWeber suggested having anoth-er public hearing so those resi-dents could speak.
“I think we owe it to the resi-dents to hear what they have tosay,” said Weber. “It’s unusual

A total team effort led theCamels to a historical postsea-son run. Campbell County HighSchool’s boys basketball teamadvanced to the 10th Region fi-nal for the first time since 2001.
The Camels (20-8) faced de-fending regional champ Mont-gomery County (29-2) in the re-gional final on March 11. Thismarked the first time since 2001that the Camels advanced to theregional final.
“This is a great opportunityfor theseboys,” headcoachAricRussell said. “They workedhard to get to this point.”
Sophomore center Matt Wil-son pulled down 19 reboundsand scored 16 points in the re-gional semifinalwinoverHarri-son County on March 10. TheCamels advanced thanks totheir defense, rebounding, andfree throw shooting.
“Weareplaying realwell as ateam,” said Russell. “We havepicked up our defensive intensi-ty and really started to reboundwell.”
The Camels dropped threestraight games in mid-Febru-ary, but remained focused ontheir larger goals. DefeatingScott and Bishop Brossart intwo closely contested games toclaim the 37th District titlespring-boarded the Camels intothe regional tournament.
“Throughout the season, wehad our bumps in the road, butwe knewwe could play our bestbasketball in March,” said sen-ior guard Corey Holbrook, who
led the Camels with 19 points inthe semifinal win. “BeatingBrossart was a huge confidenceboost for us.”
Keeping their composurethroughoutadversityhelpedtheCamels to their first 20-win sea-son since 2000-2001.
“We’ve stressed all year thatitdoesn’tmatterwhereyou’reatin thebeginningof the seasonorinthemiddleof theseason,”saidRussell. “It’s where you’re at atthe end. We’re definitely play-ing our best basketball at theright time. March is when youwant to be peaking.”
Wilson and junior De’OndreJackson continue to key the of-fense. Jackson scored 10 of his16points in the fourthquarter ofthe regional semifinal. Thenumber of other key contrib-utors has been amajor factor inCampbell County’s success thisseason. Trent McGovney drewkeycharges late in thegameandcontinues tobeaforceon thede-fensive end.

“Our depth definitely helpsus a lot,” said Holbrook. “Ourbalanced scoring helps us.Teams can’t key on any oneguy.”
Being a part of the first re-gional finalist Camels team inover a decade is not lost on theplayers. Campbell County hadnot advanced this far sincemany of these boys were in pre-school.

Team effort leads tohistorical CamelPOSTSEASONBy Adam [email protected]
See CAMELS, Page A6
NEWPORT — The NewportCentral Catholic High Schoolgirlsbasketball teamwasunde-feated in the 2013 portion oftheir 2013-14 schedule.
But the Thoroughbreds be-cameabetterteamin2014aftertheir firstgameof thenewyearturned the excitement of a newcalendar into the thudofa45-40loss to rival Highlands Jan. 3.
HeadcoachGeorgeStoll im-plored his team to learn fromthat game, ordering them towatch film of the loss withoutcoaches present, then writingdown what they learned.
Those lessons ultimatelypaid off March 9, when theThoroughbreds beat NotreDame 48-46 in overtime to winthe Ninth Region champion-ship. NCC (29-4) played Butlerin the first round of the Sweet16 March 12 after Recorderprint deadlines.
NCC trailed by10 points andeight points in its first twowinsin the regional, then trailedNo-tre Dame by six points in thefirst period Sunday. NCC onlyled the Pandas briefly, once, inregulation.
“We faced adversity thewhole year,” Stoll said.“(Against Highlands), we didnot face adversity well as ateam. Ever since then, no mat-ter how far we’re down, wekeep on playing and we keepgrindingitout.Weplayedawful(against Highlands). We wereundefeated and we went inthinking we should win and wedidn’t come ready to play. Welearned from it.”
NCC, which earlier avengedtheHighlands defeat with a 55-
45win in the 36thDistrict final,pulled out a last-second tri-umph over the Pandas. JuniorguardMichaelaWarescoredona driving layup in the final sec-onds to break a 46-all tie. Theplayers and coaches erupted injubilation around Ware at mid-court.
Itwastheexactsamesetandplay-call Stoll andWare used ina two-point win over HolyCross in the All “A” regionalsemifinals Jan. 17. Ware alsoscored at the rim in that gameto win the contest. Sunday, shecurled around a high ball-screen from Alexus Mayesthen rolled to the basket, withscoring options on each side of
her if she needed to pass.“Itwas thesameexactplay,”
Ware said. “Having the samefeeling helped, but it wasnerve-wracking. I was hopingto get to the free-throw line andat least make one. If I wasn’topen, I couldkick it out tomakea three. I was a little nervous,but I just focused on finishing.”
It is NCC’s first title since2011. Ware had 13 points, andwas an all-tourney selectionwith Mayes, who had seven.Senior center Nikki Kiernanposted 20 points and was tour-nament most valuable player.
“I’m very happy that theyounger girls get this experi-ence,” Kiernan said. “I got toexperience this as a freshman.It’s an unbelievable feeling. It’sa feeling I can’t even explain.It’s awesome.”
Kiernan was the other mainoption on the winning basket.
“I didn’t even know thegame was over, to be honest,”she said. “I went running backon defense, and then I saw thered around the backboard.”
Kiernan, third in NCC histo-ry in scoring and with morethan 1,000 rebounds, will lookfor a strong close to her career.
“Nikki’s MVP for a reason,”Stoll said. “Our team rolls withher, andMichaelamakes us go.She doesn’t need to score be-causeshedoessomanythings.”

Perhaps itwas anomenfor the Bishop Brossartgirls’ basketball teamwhen the bus itwas takingeast to Mason County forits 10th Region tourna-ment game headed southtoward Harrison Countyinstead for about 15 min-utes before anyone no-ticed they were going inthe wrong direction.
Once Brossart foundits way to the correct ven-ue, it never found itselfheading in the right direc-tion in its quarterfinalagainst Mason County asthe Mustangs shot just24.3percentfromthefieldand committed 20 turn-overs in a 42-27 loss inMa-son County Fieldhouse.
“We never got on thebus the right way and wenever came off the rightway,” said Brossart headcoach Josh Feldmann.“The credit goes toMasonCounty, though.”
Brossart (22-7), whichbeat Mason County in itssecond game of the regu-lar seasononDec. 4, 50-38,never led and fell behind14-2 a little less than twominutes into the secondquarter. The Mustangsmadejustoneof their firstnine shots from the fieldand had turned the ballover nine times by thatpointagainstMasonCoun-ty’s 1-2-2 three-quarter-court press. Brossartpulledwithin twopoints at18-16 early in the thirdquarter. The Mustangshad a couple of opportuni-ties to tie after that butdidn’t make a field goalthe rest of the third quar-ter and trailed 25-18 head-ing to the fourth quarter.
Senior Sarah Futscher,a first teamall-regionpickin the 10th, had eightpoints. Morgan Verstscored eight and AbbyStadtmiller seven.
“They did a good of fil-tering us out when we got
into the frontcourt to thesideline,” Feldmann said.“When they did that theythen covered Sarah(Futscher) and made itdifficult to reverse theball to get in our sets. Weshot too fast. It’s some-thing we talked about fortwo days in practice thatwe can’t shoot fast againstthe press, we have to takeadvantage of our size.”
Feldmann on his sen-iors (Futscher, Stadtmill-er,Verst,KaylaYoungandMadison Eisenman), whowon90gamesoverthelastfour seasons and three All‘A’ Classic 10th Region ti-tles: “They’ve done somany things, butwedidn’tget that last (win). That’ssomething that’s going tostay with me for a longtime, but they’re evenbet-ter people than they arebasketball players. Thesekids have made look a lotsmarter than I am the lastfouryears that’s for sure.”
Brossart seniors gettough ending in regionalGannett News Service
NEWPORT — With fiveseniors departing includ-ing two starters, the New-port Central CatholicHigh School boys basket-ball teams plans to makeanother run at the NinthRegion championshipnext year.
The end of this year’srunto thetitlewasstilldif-ficult to swallow, but headcoach Ron Dawn wasphilosophical about it.
“It’s not (easy), butthere’s only one team inthestatethatgoesasfarasthey want to go,” Dawnsaid. “Everybody exceptone team ends up a loser.It’s tough.We didn’t reachour goal, but there are twogood teamsplaying (in theregional finals), andoneofthem isn’t going to reachtheir goal.”
NewCath lost 51-43 toCovington Catholic in thesemifinals March 9 at theBank of Kentucky Center.NCCfinished29-4andsuf-fered its first loss to aNinth Region foe. A regu-lar season game betweenthe two rivals was can-celed at halftime becauseof slippery conditions onCov Cath’s floor, and theteams weren’t able to re-schedule it.
With anticipation highfor the all-or-nothing re-
match, the teams deliv-ered tough, physical play,staying within a posses-sion or two until Bo Schuhscored on a fast-breakbucketwith threeminutestogo toputCovCathup41-35.
NCC went 5-of-16 fromthe foul line for the gameand missed several lay-ups,most of themcontest-ed by long-armed Coloneldefenders.
“We had easy shots in-side, the free throws hurt
us,”Dawnsaid.“Wehadsomany opportunities. Bothteams did a good job de-fensively, didn’t give toomany easy shots to eitherteam. That was the big-gest part of it. We didn’texecute quite as well aswe usually do running oursets to get better shots.”
Senior Tanner Moeveshit four 3-pointers andwas the lone double-digitscorer for the Thorough-breds with 15 points. Ju-nior Zach Pangallo hadeight. Post players JakeSchulte, Drew McDonaldandBenWeyer,all6-foot-6and up, combined for 16points and 19 rebounds.
Two starting seniorswereMoeves and Schulte,who will play for DivisionI South Carolina Upstateand return to the Bank ofKentucky Center a yearfrom now to face AtlanticSun Conference partnerNorthern Kentucky Uni-versity in league play. Re-serves Mac Franzen, JoshVerkamp and Tyler Rawealso depart.
NCC will return two ofthetopguards inNorthernKentucky in Pangallo andGrant Moeves, 6-6 wingplayer Weyer, and the re-gion’s top center in Mc-Donald.
“We’ll be right thereagain next year,” Dawnsaid. “We’ll be as good asanybody in the regionagain next year.”

WHO’S ON THE BALLOT
An answer to Ted Smith: Getyour facts first, then you candistort ‘em as much as youplease.
This is the best response to aletter in theRecorderonFeb.27.Tea party candidates don’t un-dermine Republican candi-dates: They win. So far as theparties go, the tea party is thelife of the party. The statisticsshow that the Independent par-ty is now the largest registeredparty, at over 40 percent. TheRepublican party is not one oftwo major parties. It is one oftwominority parties, Democratand Republican.
You have to havemicroscop-ic vision to tell any differencebetween these two minorityparties; something pointed outby Will Rogers at the time ofHerbertHoover.Most Indepen-dent voters changed over frombeing Republican. That was be-cause the party was so anxiousto “win” that it courted thefringeat theexpenseof its core,which has a very different vi-sion for America. That visionhas not yet been fully articulat-ed, but I can tell you that it isvery different from the crony-ism so dear to the establish-ment. Ronald Reagan warned
us about biggovernmentriding ourbacks.
The Repub-licans controlthe house, butyou wouldn’tknow it. In theSenate they donot even offereffective oppo-sition. The onlyexception
seems tobeSen.RandPaul,whois almost a one-man show. Thetea party is here, and it’s not go-ing togoaway.The teapartyhasmanaged to connectwithAmer-icans at all levels. Everyone hasa right to be heard, and tomaketheir concerns known.
I suggest we send some newpeople to Washington. Mr.Smith is mistaken to think it is“wacko” to send a bad man in-stead of a good one because hewon’t be minority leader thefirst day.Nothingcanbedone tomagically solve the problemsWashington has created; weneed less government, notmore. Washington has been do-ing too much. What it can do iscontinue to create problems formore and more people, wreck
the economy, and sell it to theChinese for inflating dollars.
The business of MIT is par-ticularly laughable.Fraudalert:McConnell claims thatMr. Bev-in said he graduated from MITon his resume. (That was Mas-sie.)Don’t peoplehavemore im-portant things to receive no-tices about than that? Well, itdidn’t happen, folks. The al-leged resume has never sur-faced. Mr. Bevin does not sendresumes; he accepts them. Heowns 10 companies. CallMcConnell’s office and ask tosee a copy of the resume;chances are they’ll get the guyswho foundObama’s birth certif-icate to fake one for you.
Matt Bevin is not a careerpolitician. He talks from theheart. He answers questionsfrom the floor, and doesn’t skirtthe difficult ones. He doesn’thave any magic, just practicalsuggestions about knotty prob-lems. You have some facts;you’re on your own now if youwant to distort them.
James Duvall is a member of theNorthern Kentucky Boone CountyTeaparty, and is an elected conserva-tion supervisor for Boone County. Helives in Big Bone.

With sponsorship from Dr.Kendall Hansen and Interven-tion Pain Specialists of Crest-view Hills, Turfway Park hasadded the Hansen StarterHandicap to its lineup onHorseshoe Casino CincinnatiSpiral Stakes day, Saturday,March 22.
The 6 1⁄2-furlong HansenStarter Handicap carries a$50,000 purse and iswritten forhorses four years old and upthat started for a claiming riceof $50,000 or less in theyear be-fore this year’s Spiral Stakes.
Nominationsclose March13.
The race isnamed forHansen’seponymoushomebred2011 Breed-ers’ Cup Juve-
nile winner and Eclipse Awardchampion2-year-old –Hansen–now standing in South Korea.The nearly white colt won hisdebut by more than 13 lengthsat Turfway and then romped
again in theBluegrassCatKen-tucky Cup Juvenile by nearly14 lengths, also at Turfway. Inhis next start Hansen set thepace and then gamely held offeventual Belmont Stakes win-ner Union Rags to win theBreeders’ Cup Juvenile by ahead, clinching the champion-ship.
“One of the best traditions inhorse racing is to name a raceafter a special horse. Hansen’suniquely pure white color, hisattractive face, and his domi-nant running style attracted
fans around the world,” saidHansen. “Naming a race atTurfway after Hansen is a per-fect fit, since he won his firsttwo races there in such jaw-dropping fashion. Turfway hasalso been my home track formyracingoperationof30yearsand it’s where I had my bestsuccess when I handicappedfor a living in 1980 and ’81. It’sanhonor tobeable toaddsucharace to the great Spiral day tra-dition. It’s also fun for me thisyear because Hansen’s half-brother Gunderson has won
both his races at Turfway andlikely will run in the race.”
“Dr. Hansen’s sponsorshipaffords us the opportunity notonly to add another stake to oursignaturedayof racingbut alsoto attract high level claiminghorses, which recently havebeen underrepresented in ourprogram,” said Director ofRacing Tyler Picklesimer. “Ad-ditionally, it’s refreshing to seea local businessman and Thor-oughbred owner take an activerole to help strengthen our rac-ing product.”

“Lexington hadfallen, Frank-fort had fallen,
and the rumor was thatthey were marching onto Newport, Covington,and Cincinnati,” the mansaid.
On the last Thursdaynight in February, everyseat in the meeting roomat the Erlanger branchof the Kenton CountyPublic Library was tak-en, every eye fixed onthe man describingNorthern Kentucky’srole in the Civil War.
It was James A. Ram-age, a history professorat Northern KentuckyUniversity.
The Civil War mu-seum in Fort Wright isnamed after Ramage. In2004, he led the commit-tee to save BatteryHooper, one of the keygun emplacements pro-tecting Cincinnati dur-ing the conflict.
“There are five bat-teries extant today,” hesaid, pointing to a mapon the screen. “They areBattery Combs and Bat-tery Bates in DevouPark, and Battery Hoop-er, which is where wehave our museum, Bat-tery Holt in Wilder, andBattery Shaler in Ever-green Cemetery.”
Battery Hooper rep-resents a time, in Sep-tember of 1862, when thecommunity came togeth-er in a crisis and workedto erect an eight-miledefensive line fromLudlow to Fort Thomas.
“Gen. Lew Wallacewas assigned to com-mand the defense ofNorthern Kentucky andCincinnati,” Ramagesaid. Many years after
the war, Wallace wouldwrite the best-sellingnovel “Ben-Hur.”
“Under the watch-word ‘Citizens for labor,soldiers for battle,’ Wal-lace required everyadult male to fight orwork,” Ramage said.
To help with this ef-fort, Wallace formed theBlack Brigade, markingone of the first timesthat the Union Army useAfrican Americans.
But in order to movemen and supplies intoNorthern Kentucky, abridge was needed asthe suspension bridgewas not yet finished.
So Wallace met withthree local contractorsand asked them to builda pontoon bridge, a tem-porary structure sup-ported by boats. Thecontractors had nevereven seen one but prom-ised that they could do itin 48 hours. “We’ll getcoal barges off the Lick-ing River” they said.
They finished thebridge over the OhioRiver in 30 hours, thenbuilt another one overthe Licking. All the prep-arations were completedin just five days.
Soon Confederatesoldiers marched intoNorthern Kentucky.When they reached Flor-ence, crowds shouted“Hooray for Jeff Davis!”referring to the Confed-erate president. At thetime Boone County waspro-Confederate, whileCampbell and Kentoncounties were pro-Union.
Wallace had pulledtogether a force of22,000 Union troops and50,000 militia. The 8,000
Confederate soldierswho marched into FortMitchell decided thatWallace’s men, and thedefenses they had con-structed, were too muchfor them. There was noattack, and after twotense days they with-drew.
“Gen. Wallace’s can-non at Fort Mitchell, andthe batteries, 15 of them,never fired a shot. Butnow they fired a cele-bration,” Ramage ex-plained.
To end his talk, he
shared this from Wal-lace’s victory proclama-tion:
“In coming timestrangers viewing theworks on the hills ofNewport and Covingtonwill ask, ‘Who built theseentrenchments?’ Youcan answer ‘We builtthem.’ If they ask, ‘Whoguarded them?’ You canreply ‘We helped in thou-sands.’ If they inquirethe result, your answerwill be ‘The enemy cameand looked at them, andstole away in the night.’”

TAKE IN A FISH FRY
Boy, did I learn mylesson this week. Re-member last columnwhen I spoke about sledriding for the “last” timethis year? Well, we all
knowwhat’shappenedsince then:Moresnow andmoreopportuni-ties to sledride. But Ido thinkwe’returning
the corner toward springbecause St. Patrick’sDay is coming and thatmeans getting the gar-den ready for plantingpotatoes (hopefully!).But regardless of Moth-er Nature cooperating ornot, we’ll celebrate withsome corned beef andcabbage and a cup ofthis warming potatosoup.
Creamy or chunkypotato soup
You can eliminate thebacon and use vegetablebroth if you like. In thatcase, add a bit of butterto the pan to take theplace of the bacon fat.Also, if you don’t likegarlic, just leave it out.
1⁄2 pound bacon, cutup, sautéed and setaside, leaving a coupletablespoons fat in pan.
2 cups onion, choppedAnywhere from1 to 3
teaspoons minced garlic3-4 pounds baking
potatoes, chunked up,peeled or not
6-8 cups chicken orvegetable broth or asneeded
Cream or half-and-
half (optional)Salt and pepper to
tasteGarnish: fresh pars-
ley, sour cream, bacon,shredded cheese (option-al)
Cook onion in baconfat until golden. Addgarlic and cook a minute.Add potatoes and 6 cupsbroth and bring to a boil.Reduce heat and simmeruntil potatoes are tender.Puree soup as desired,either leaving it chunkyor creamy. Addmorebroth if needed. Stir inas much cream as youlike.
Tip from Rita’skitchen
Instant cream soupthickener: Add potatoflakes if necessary afteryou puree soup, but becareful, you won’t needmuch if at all, and theythicken it pretty quickly.
Guinness floatI am not a beer drink-
er, but my ohmy, I likethis. Maybe it’s the cof-fee ice cream or maybeit’s the frosted mug ormaybe, just maybe, it’sthe beer itself!
First you have to frostthe mug. Run waterinside and out, pour outexcess and immediatelyput in freezer to frost up.Then put scoops of icecream into the mug –and really your favoriteis just fine here. Vanillatotally works as well ascoffee. Put 2-3 scoops inand pour the Guinnessover. I think it’s the bit-terness of the beer alongwith the sweetness ofthe ice cream that getsme. And if you don’t likeGuinness, I suppose you
could use a stout orwhatever full-flavoredbeer you have on hand.Some folks like to swirlin some chocolate syrupon the ice cream beforethey pour in the beer.
Famous restauranthot artichoke andspinach dip clone
Go to taste on this,adding more, or less ofthe seasonings. A shakeof red pepper flakes inhere would give it a bitof a kick. Thanks to thereader who wanted toremain anonymous butwho said “this is betterthan any that I’ve had atrestaurants.”
1 8 oz. package creamcheese, softened
1⁄4 cup each: mayon-naise and Parmesancheese
1 large clove garlic,minced or more to taste
3⁄4 teaspoon dry basil114 oz. can artichoke
hearts packed in brine,drained and coarsely
chopped10 oz. frozen chopped
spinach, thawed, verywell drained
11⁄2 to 2 cups mozzarel-la cheese, shredded
Parmesan for garnish(optional)
Preheat oven to 350degrees. Blend creamcheese, mayo, Parmesan,garlic and basil. Addartichokes and spinach.Bake in sprayed casse-role for 15-20 minutes.Top with mozzarella andcook about 20 minutes oruntil cheese is goldenand bubbly. Serve withcrackers or crudités. Ifdesired, sprinkle withmore Parmesan.

by Bettina Love in cele-bration of Women’s His-tory Month at 12:30 p.m.Friday, March 21, in theNKU Votruba StudentUnion Ballroom.
Love is an assistantprofessor in the Depart-
ment of Educational The-ory & Practice at theUni-versity of Georgia. Herresearch focuses on theways in which urbanyouth negotiate hip hopmusic and culture toform social, cultural, and
political identities.Acon-tinuing thread of herscholarship involves ex-ploring new ways ofthinking about urbaneducation and culturallyrelevant pedagogical ap-proaches forurban learn-
ers.Specifically, she is in-
terested in transformingurban classroomsthrough the use of non-traditional educationalcurricula (e.g., hip hoppedagogy, media litera-
cy, hip hop feminism, andpopular culture). Build-ing on that theme, Lovealso has a passion forstudying the school expe-riences of queer youth,along with race andequality in education.

“ A ... My NameIs Alice” is a musi-cal that had a longrun at the VillageGate Off Broad-way. It is a collec-tion of songs andscenes that high-light women’s par-adoxes, beauty,strengthandheart.It is a celebrationof how far womanhave come whilerecognizing thatthey still have away to go in theirnational and inter-national pursuit ofequality. This re-vue created by awide variety ofcomedy writers,lyricists and com-posers offers a ka-leidoscope of con-temporarywomen.The 20 songs por-tray friends, ri-vals, sisters andeven members ofanallwomen’s bas-ketball team.
Inaddition todi-recting the show,Danieley, is one ofthe newest faculty
members in thede-partment havingcome to NKU atthe beginning ofthe 2013-2014 aca-demic year. Shemakes her debutwith this produc-tion and alreadyseems right athome.
“I am very ex-cited for my NKUdirectorial debut,”she said. “I amthrilled to workwith such a talent-ed group of youngladies, a creativedesign team, and ahard workingcrew. I have heardof NKU’s reputa-tion as the best
theater depart-ment in the stateand it ismyhope tohelp keep that leg-acy alive for a longtime to come.”
In the midst ofmoving from St.Louis, being anAc-tor’s Equity mem-ber, teachingclass-es and directing“Alice,” Danieleystill found the timeto reach out to thelocal Women’s Cri-sis Center to set upa special benefitperformance inthe center’s honor.Tickets proceedsfrom the matineeperfromance at 3p.m. Saturday,

Senior KaylaPecchioni seems tobe having a blastworking on “Al-ice.”
“It’s all aboutpride in being awoman no matterhow quirky or dif-ferent you are andI can definitely re-late to that,” Pec-chioni said. “I lovethe opening song,‘All Girl Band,’ themost. It’s a greatway to make astatement aboutthe show: fun, laidback and a goodtime. The mostchallenging aspectof theshowisprob-ably trying not tolaugh during thenumbers. So manyof the scenes andsongsare laughoutloud hilarious andthe jokes never getold.”
