It appears that the Gold Dust Orphans shall make one last run at Boston’s notorious Ramrod Performing Arts Theatre later this year.
While details about the holiday musical are slim, a website has been set up for ticket sales to see, Christmas on Uranus. The holiday musical will open on Friday, November 29th and will run through Sunday, December 22nd. Stay tuned for more details later this fall.
Christmas on Uranus
Ramrod Performing Arts Theatre
November 29 – December 22, 2019
Even though Boston Pride ended more than a week ago, I am still enjoying the vibe and all the fun we had. This week I decided to feature DJ Dan Slater who was the special guest DJ for the Back Bay Block Party. The weather and music cooperated and made it a fantastic day.
This Australian DJ who now lives in the US did a great job in part because it was so much fun watching him enjoy the music dancing either solo or on occasion with some block party revelers who would catch his eye. You can get a feel for the music he produces and plays on his SoundCloud page: danielsl8r.
As you can imagine, Daniel’s IG account is filled with promos for upcoming parties and his travels like this photo below from his account.
Follow them on Instagram here, instagram.com/danielsl8r.

Keeping with the theme of Pride this month, I wanted to share this beautiful photo. Hopefully the caption I’ve shared below inspires you to offer up a caption or two of your own.
