Last day of the sold-out Charles Shultz “Charlie Brown Christmas” stage adaption at Taproot Theatre. I need to stop seeing kid-friendly shows. Nice how the schroeder character accompanied the musical (or play?).
Watched the stage play adaptation of Willa Cather’s “My Antonia” at Book-It Repertory Theatre. Lots of cast doubling. Entertaining to hear different immigrant & Americana accents but wonder if they were pronounced correctly.
Watched the coming-of-age LGBT play “Beautiful Thing” (basis for the movie) at Slate Theater. Delighted that it was entirely in cockney accent! Not too thrilled that it was mostly dialogue & no action.
Drove to Siberia to watch the Tony Awards-winning, Anton Chekhov-inspired play Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike. Voodoo prophetess and douchey hot actor were a hoot. I could do without the bizzare climatic anti-millennial monologue though.
Watched the Obie Awards-winning play “The Conduct of Life.” Dialogue was bizzare & I’m sure I missed the symbolism. An usher was available to escort out attendees who couldn’t handle the graphic sexual/verbal/physical abuse scenes!
