Going to the Theater

One of the things Wolfling and I have in common is an affection for live theater -- and she has a surprising interest in Shakespeare.

Next Wednesday we're going to a matinee performance of Othello at the Intiman. I don't think she knows the story, so we'll probably watch the Lawrence Fishburn / Kenneth Branagh movie first.

October 4th, we're going to see Wicked!
I wasn't sure I could justify the tickets, due to my unemployment, but the more I saw the signs, the more I wanted to go -- and Wolfling really wanted to go as well. My mom and aunt will be joining us.

I keep forgetting that Wolfling really does enjoy theater, and our region has a lot of opportunities for play-going. We need to spend more time doing that together.

Both shows sound like a LOT of fun. I too find it difficult to make time for live theatre, much as I enjoy it.

You so need to go see Wicked if you ever have the chance!

It's terrible: one of the reasons I moved to The Big City in the first place was to take advantage of things like lots of theaters. But do I ever go?? No. . .
