Cheryl West-playwright
2007-12-13 22:09:00 I went to see a play the other night written by Chicago native Cheryl West. The play was "Birdie Blue." I have to say that the first 30-45 minutes of the play were a bit less than stellar. But at some point, the drama heightened and West had me in the palm of her hand. The last half of the play was riveting. I think West should tighten some of the chronological transitions, but then again

Although I have changed tremendously over the last eight years, much of the stuff here is pretty valid. And some of this stuff will make you roll your eyes and declare, "Man, that Prince! Some things never change!" I'm always kind of hesitant to dig into my archives because my writing is so much better nowadays and a lot of my beliefs and opinions are very different from when I was younger?but I think many people may find value here despite.] I do not know any 13-year-old girls. Otherwise, I would've easily found someone to go with me to see Joey McIntyre in concert. (Joey is a former member of the '80s boy band New Kids on the Block. He's now 26, he's gone solo, and he's the sexiest man in the universe.) All my friends gave me looks of either confusion and/or concern when I asked them to chaperone me (after ...
