We took a little trip into Austin last night to visit one of our beloved treasures -- the Zachary Scott Theatre.  The Drowsy Chaperone, billed as a musical within a comedy, played to a full house and one of Dripping Springs' talents -- Amy Nichols -- was a lead.  I can't say enough good things about the show.  The costumes, music and dancing were all superb.  Chaperone is directed by Nick Demos who just one a 2010 Tony as producer of Broadway's Memphis.  Don't miss it!  The play runs through August 29th.  For more information about cool things happening in and around Dripping Springs, Texas, please visit http://www.drippingspringslife.com/.
