Finding CHEVALIER

As those of you who read this blog regularly know, I'm in the process of individually publishing my 6 non-musical one-person plays, under the collective title of The Hollywood Legends. In fact, two of them, Carole LOMBARD and Spencer TRACY, are already for sale on Amazon and the other four should be up and ready for purchase no later than next week.
I'm also making my 2 musical one-person plays, Al JOLSON and Maurice CHEVALIER, available to potential producers in pdf manuscript format.
Tuesday night, I discovered that the sheet music for CHEVALIER, including many rare out-of-print tines, were not where they were supposed to be. I searched the house high-and-low, but no sheet music.
It's not easy to do a musical play without sheet music.
So yesterday, I went over to our storage place and started digging through boxes of stuff. It took me over an hour...and I screwed up my back...but I did find what I was looking for.
The sheet music was stuck in a book...along with a lot of other papers...in a sealed box that was way in the back of our unit, buried under lots of other boxes.
Ah, the joys of moving....
I took the music over to my mail/printing place and had multiple copies made of it.
As Shakespeare said: "All's well that ends well."
You have a creative day.
Michael
