Quick update
Last weekend I went to see “Our Dad Is In Atlantis” at the Phoenix Theatre and “The Foreigner” at Carmel Community Players. I enjoyed both very much, although for different reasons.
However, because my day job is keeping me very(!) busy this month, I have not had a chance to write about either of these shows. I will not be able to write about them this weekend, either.
I will not even have time to SEE a show this weekend. (Eeep!!)
So…I will just say quickly that “The Foreigner” closes on Sunday and it is very funny.
“Our Dad” continues through June 8 and some of the performances are in Spanish. I am planning to see one of those performances, too. The story of two young brothers whose mother died and whose father left them behind when he moved to the United States is haunting.
There are several other shows running this weekend that I would like to see, too, but the day job (and my health!) have to come first.
So… “break a leg” to everyone, and I will see you again soon.

Thanks for the blog! This is a good way to keep abreast on upcoming productions and events.
Did you get a chance to see “South Pacific?” I saw it last weekend and enjoyed it, though I am getting increasinly frustrated with the Footlite orchestra drowning out the singers. I couldn’t hear half the show, even from row F! I can only imagine what the elderly folk in front of me picked up.
Anyway, thanks for the hard work!

I did not get a chance to see Footlite’s “South Pacific,” and at this point, I don’t think I will be able to. I would have liked to, though, even though I know what you mean about not being able to hear sometimes.
