I finally realized that I’m at a point in life where I can afford season tickets to something, so I bought a package to the new Guthrie Theater. I figured it would be a shame not to take advantage of such a great venue that’s so close to home. When I toured the new theater during last summer’s open house, the accessibility seemed generally good and I’m looking forward to seeing actual productions there. My first play is Lost in Yonkers, which seemed like an oddly traditional choice for the opening season of the new theater, but then again, I suppose one could say the same for The Merchant of Venice.
There’s a tangerine sky outside my window at the moment. it seems to have chased away the gray sheets of clouds that were lurking about earlier. Somehow, it’s a fitting denouement to my hectic week.
I hope you enjoy whatever you choose to see.
I love broadway. I usually go to the local playhouses.(off-off-broadway, it’s alot cheaper)
Me and my 2 cousins do “girl’s night out” . I make dinner , then we go see a musical.
I highly recommend any of the following:
Ragtime (my all-time favorite)
Beauty and the Beast
Miss Siagon
Annie
Jeckyll and Hyde (one of my favorites)
Meet Me In St. Louis
Me and My Gal
Cats (awesome visuals. Andrew Llyodd Webber must have been tugging on the peace pipe, worshipping the Gonja God when he wrote that.)
A Chorus Line
Phantom of the Opera
The Sound of Music
Oliver
The Lion King . I was suppose to go see it on 9/12/01 A broadway matinee show.
The day before that 9/11/01 happened (that’s a day I’ll never forget as long as I live.) and the lights on broadway dimmed for 3 whole days.
