Well, first it was my groovy pad in the WestEnder. Now it's my car's turn, as the Rambler was selected for the Province's "I Love My Car" feature last Friday! Check out this link to see the article. (It's also accessible from the main AdamAbrams.com page.) http://adamabrams.com/index.php/archives/211 So I guess all my possessions have had their 15 minutes of fame now... maybe it's my turn next! 8^) ----- To unsubscribe from this list, visit my homepage: http://www.adamabrams.com.

For those who were there or those who missed it, I've got some photos here of Sunday night's Ovation Awards - the annual celebration of achievement in Musical Theatre in the Lower Mainland. It was a memorable evening of fun, laughter, appreciation and great musical performances too! Here's a gallery of all the photos (63 in all): http://www.flickr.com/photos/cosmocanuck/sets/72157594506097955/ And here's just 15 of my favourite pics: http://www.flickr.com/photos/cosmocanuck/sets/72157594506110625/ Enjoy!

Hey everybody! I'm wondering how many people would be interested in heading down to my West End pad this Monday to watch the return of HEROES. I'm totally hooked on this new show about ordinary people discovering extraordinary abilities - a computer geek from Japan who can bend time, a Texas cheerleader who is seemingly indestructible, a political candidate who can fly, a beat cop who can hear people's thoughts. And then there's the killer who is targeting them all. If you're already a fan like I am, you've been aw ...Continue Reading

Several people have pointed out that the online version of the "My Digs" profile in the WestEnder omitted the photo of my leopard-skin-covered TV referenced in the article. So I put some more views of my groovy pad online (including the TV). These are actually the original photos I took and sent to WE to pitch my place for "My Digs".

My Groovy "Digs" Featured in the WestEnderEach week, the WestEnder's "My Digs" column puts the spotlight on someone's place and what they've done with it. This week, it's my turn! I'd often thought my swingin' pad might might be interesting enough to make it in, so I emailed them a few weeks ago. I was thrilled to hear that they agreed!

A friend of mine, Jhayne Holmes, is attempting something truly amazing - purchasing a defunct former Bollywood movie house on Vancouver's East Side and turning it into a vibrant new art and cultural venue featuring music, performance, fine art, and, yes, movies. The whole plan is here: http://www.foxtongue.com/vision.html Although she's had great success so far, she still needs a lot of help to see it through - and time is running out. She's invested a big chunk of her own money and others have purchased shares, but ...Continue Reading

*We all know the story, but you’ve never seen it like this! * Cranky and selfish Sally Catherine ‘S.C.’ Rooge, yoga-clothing manufacturer, is whisked away on a journey through her past, present and future by a trio of off-kilter ghosts. Sure, that sounds a lot like ‘A Christmas Carol"... but this is 21st Century Kitsilano, and in this quirky, heartfelt and hilarious spoof (the Broadway Chorus’ first-ever show at the Roundhouse Community Centre), S.C. Rooge contends with Fren ...Continue Reading

Hi everyone, My friend Jhayne Holmes continues to forge ahead with her bold plan to purchase the former Raja Theatre on Commercial Drive, and return it to its roots as a hub for local art and performance as the "Heart of the World". (See http://www.foxtongue.com for full details on her bold and inspiring plan!) However, time is running short for her to raise the deposit. Many have pitched in but half the deposit (of $48,000) remains to be raised - and the deposit is due first thing this Friday! To help reac ...Continue Reading
