I have really enjoyed attending the theatre over this past year. That may not sound like a lot to most people but to me it is monumental. I have seen five shows of the last year: two tours, two university productions and one local production. All of them were fun. The quality varied but the experiences were all sublime. And it has been a good way to reconnect with friends. Each performance was accompanied by special people in my life. That means a lot.
I am hoping to see more theatre this coming year. Given that I've seen more shows now than I have in the last 20 years my track record is definitely improving! UNCG is doing The Lightning Thief, a Percy Jackson musical in April and that might be a fun show even though I know nothing about it. It's always fun to see a show that I have no clue what to expect. A coworker of mine wants to see that so we may try to go together. And then in May there's the tour of To Kill a Mockingbird. Bill and Heidi gave me tickets for Christmas and I'm excited to see that one.
I just really have enjoyed reigniting this passion in my life. Doing something that I love does me better than I thought possible. And supporting the arts is always important, especially in this day and age. So, here's to more shows, more friends and more special experiences!
