Big hearts and hugs to Madeline Michel who’s in NYC and may need a seven second delay! Madeline is my AMAZING BFF and the AMAZING Theater Director from Monticello High School in Charlottesville, Virginia. This weekend Madeline will receive the 2019 Excellence in Theatre Education Award!

Madeline Michel Awarded Tony Awards’ Excellence In Theatre Education Award
OMIGOD!
Madeline has also been the inspiration behind the cartoon character of Allison in Reply All comic and Reply All Lite cartoon for almost ten years now! There’s no seven second delay in cartooning. Just editors. And rewrites.
Thankfully, I always get great material from Ms. Michel and her character just looks like the type to need a seven second delay without actually getting me into trouble with newspapers.
Good luck! Lots of hugs from Baltimore, Potomac and Washington, DC!!
