I just had an interesting phone conversation with Chic Silber who it turns out, designed the props for the Broadway production of "Dracula" that Barbara and I saw, including the radio that played "Dream Lover". |

Several years ago I arrive at the Meadowlands in New Jersey to visit Hashi Dubsky who was managing a major indoor show at the time. My family and I pull on the lot and I get the message to see Hashi immediately.
Seems that while unloading a big road box the theatre lighting was dropped/fallen and 50+ lamps were smashed.
Needing to get the trusses/lights into the air I was dispatched to the theatre district to meet Chic who had an account at the local wholesaler for these specialized lamps.
Since I grew up in NYC I can get all over the place without any trouble.
I couldn't take the motor home into the city so I was given a car, into NYC, hi to Chic and back in 90 minutes.
A few years ago I saw Chic at Showfolks and we talked about that hectic day; the show he was moving in was indeed WICKED. The show is the "pre-story" to the Wizard of Oz and portrays the relationship of the Good Witch and tbe Bad Witch.
