Hope’s Theatre Year 2012: The Best, the Most, the Other…

I know, I know: most people have already shared their “best of 2012″ lists and moved on.  What can I say?  Sometimes I like to linger. Before I talk about the shows that impressed me and/or affected me most in 2012, I’d like to make note of a few other things that were unique to this [...]

2013 Directory of Shows

(Last updated 5-22-13) It’s that time again: time to set up my Directory of Shows Seen for the year. By a quick count, I saw 76.5 live theatre or storytelling shows (85.5 performances) in 26 theatres in 2012.  For comparison: I think I saw 91 live theatre shows in 2011, 120 in 2010, 134 in 2009, and 144 in [...]

Hope’s Theatre Year 2011: The Best, the Most, the Other…

The more performance art I experience, the more I realize how personal that experience is.  I love that it is personal.  I love that it is ephemeral, too.  It is impossible to sustain or even to reproduce exactly, because it is live.  The only way to truly experience a live theatre piece is to be present for [...]

2012 Directory of Shows

(Last updated 1-5-13) It’s that time again: time to set up my Directory of Shows Seen for the year.  By a quick count, I saw 91 live theatre shows in 2011, 120 in 2010, 134 in 2009, and 144 in 2008.  I guess I’m “slowing down,” although I prefer to think of it as becoming more selective [...]

Directory of 2011 Shows

(Last updated:  January 2, 2012. Note: I stopped blogging for a while for a number of reasons beginning in May, 2011 .  I will probably start back up again eventually but in the meantime I continue to see shows for the pleasure of it.  (Of course!) That is why so many shows in this year’s directory are [...]

Theatre News: Hope’s 3+3 Favorite Shows from 2010

I have a love-hate relationship with “best of the year” lists.  I think Americans (and probably many other people) are obsessed to the point of disease over making comparisons. The added problem with a “best of the year” theatre list is that, unlike with a list of books or movies, you usually can not go [...]

Directory of 2010 Shows

(Last updated 3-1-11) Here it is February already, and I am only now posting my 2010 directory of shows I have seen.  Ah, well.  Each year I improve my organizational skills a teeny bit.  In 2009, I didn’t get my directory started until mid-year, and I didn’t even start my 2008 directory until 2009! This [...]

Directory of 2009 Shows

It took me three days to make a directory for the shows I saw in 2008, what with embedding the links and all.  Therefore I am starting my 2009 directory mid-year.  I will update it as I go so that it won’t be a huge job at the end of the year. I am also [...]

Directory of 2008 Shows

Tonight I am indulging my inner librarian, who is often frustrated by the imprecision of the Search box that came with this WordPress theme.  Below is a list of the shows that I saw in 2008, grouped by performance company and then alphabetized by show title, with links to the companies and links to my [...]

Housekeeping

My new business cards for Indy Theatre Habit arrived in the mail today! They look a little different from what I imagined when I filled out the online template, but I am still delighted.  Now I will have something tidy to hand to people who ask me to repeat the name of my blog, rather than tearing [...]
