A friend hits the big time...

[Laura is Ken's sister-in-law, and every time she and her hubby Landro are in town, the drop over for tea. YAY Laura!]

New 'Thoroughly Modern Millie' star overcomes sour sound system:

Borrowing a story line from a classic backstage musical, chorus member Laura Schutter replaced pregnant star Darcie Roberts in "Thoroughly Modern Millie" at Bass Concert Hall on Tuesday — belting, shimmying and charming her way into our collective hearts.

Playing the pert country girl turned 1920s flapper — turned gold digger turned sweet romancer — Schutter was almost sabotaged by excruciatingly modulated amplification, which made her full voice sound shrill, while turning other performances virtually unintelligible.
