Safe and sound in Pittsburgh!
It is here where myself and a few of my friends will recuperate before we head out to New York to meet the other group of people. I’m so excited because I only get to see these people like once or twice a year, two of my friends I haven’t seen in a long time; one of them its been 4 or 5 years and the other its been about 3. So this is a big deal for me, not only do I get to see people I adore but I get to share what I love doing most with them: the theatre. We’re cramming 4 shows in 4 days, normally we can cram more than that in but we need to save some for the summer ;]
The list is as follows:
- By the Way, Meet Vera Stark (Friday night)
- Wonderland (Saturday Matinee)
- Anything Goes (Saturday Night)
- The People in the Picture (Sunday Matinee)
I’m really excited because three of these shows are brand new, original musicals. Wonderland is actually a new interpretation of Through the Looking Glass so technically its not “new” but the music is composed by Frank Wildhorne, one of my favorite composers, and its so fresh and original that I think it could be considered new. Anything Goes is a revival of the original 1930s musical, I’ve never seen it and I love Cole Porter and Sutton Foster so I know I’ll adore it. I’ll be posting reviews and such when I get a chance.
I’m so happy to be here, you guys don’t know how wonderful this trip is for me. Its necessary element for me to maintain my sanity and happiness.
