The cover artwork for my two albums is so beautiful (thanks, Ewa) that I just can't keep it to myself (or if I did, it would be a crime, or at least a crying shame!) Hence, a new Zazzle store filled to the brim with gorgeous, cute, practical, pretty and witty items! ~Sip coffee from a colorful Western "Museum Tour" mug while listening to songs from MUSEUM TOUR: The Musical! ~Be the envy of all the gals when you retrieve your lipstick from the pink-rose-and-diamond-ring "More Precious Than Diamonds" cosmetic bag! ~And for those of you who MUST have the latest gadget the very day it comes out, rest assured that there are plenty of skins and covers for whatever item you stood in line for on Black Friday (ha!) As for me, I'll be rockin' it old-school with tees & totes, as well as the afore-mentioned mug and cosmetic bag. But dang, these designs are so pretty that I might buy some electronic device just so I can put a cover on it. They are that good. Please visit www.zazzle.com/pianovoice and see if you agree!

Stephanie Hutchinson: The Start of Something Real – The Secret Rose Theatre to produce an evening of short plays and musicals by Los Angeles-based playwright/composer/lyricist
North Hollywood, CA - One of today’s brightest writers of ten-minute plays and short musicals, Los Angeles-based Stephanie Hutchinson has had a long relationship with the Secret Rose Theatre. A collection of her works, entitled The Start of Something Real, will be presented for two weeks only at the Secret Rose on July 8 through July17, Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00 PM, and Sundays at 2:00 PM. This production will be the first to feature Hutchinson’s work exclusively, and includes six short plays and
two short musicals.
Several plays in the show have been published and produced, including Carwash; or In This Town, You Are What You Drive, which was a finalist in Secret Rose Theatre/Fire Rose Productions’ Ten-Minute Play Competition in 2008. Also included in the show are:
The Stone Cat, Super 8 Versus Bacara Resort and Spa, More Precious Than Diamonds: The Musical, The Truth About the Trash In the Trailer, You Can’t Be Tony!/The Start of Something Real and Museum Tour: The Musical.
Stephanie’s association with the Secret Rose Theatre began in 2007 when her play Model Home was a Semi-Finalist in Fire Rose Productions’ 10-Minute Play Competition.

She wrote the music and lyrics for April in New York (book by Virginia Lynn Emrick) at ANMT (the Academy for New Musical Theatre), which was produced on the Secret Rose stage in 2008. Hutchinson adapted her play, More Precious Than Diamonds into More Precious Than Diamonds: The Musical in 2009, writing book, music and lyrics, as well as being the Musical Director/Pianist for the ten-show run. BroadwayWorld.com gave the show an excellent review.
