Our local university is known for it’s historical music program, and they put on a production of the opera Alcina by Handel. It was sublime, and a treat to see a baroque opera performed in a smaller theater.

Do you ever go to see live theater? What was the last thing that you went to? Or, alternatively, what was your favorite?

    We usually prefer plays to musicals but Cabaret is one of my favs. We got to see it with Orville Peck as Emcee. So good!

      It’s a beautiful show and really timely. Orville Peck can really sing. Was he wearing his fringe facemask as the Emcee?

        It was so good. Huge applause with a line about silence equaling agreement. No mask- just his regular face.

          It’s a hugely impactful play and the Emcee shows huge changes in it. We had so many audible gasps at the end of the gorilla number
