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?

      It is the fifth reprisal so it clearly has its fans. Considering the caliber of performers they don’t have time for a lengthy prep for an original production so they will do reprisals like this.

      Lea Michelle did not perform though her replacement was so very good.

      Nicolas Christopher blew the roof off the house as he always does and that alone makes it worth the price of admission.

      It is good but I would not make a special trip to NYC to see it. We were going back and forth between Chess or The Outsiders and we made the “safe” bet to see chess based on the three leads. As I said, unfortunately, michelle Did not perform at our show.

      If I could go back three months to the planning phase of the trip I would pick Outsiders.
