E-V-E-R-Y-O-N-E rescheduled due to Sandy

Having rehearsed and teched, we were ready to go with E-V-E-R-Y-O-N-E when Sandy hit, knocking out power in Lower Manhattan. NYLA is still without power as of Thursday, so the show has been cancelled for this week. The plan is to reschedule sometime this season.

Everyone from the production is safe and sound, so that is the main thing.
