Mary Burruss's review of Barksdale's "Spelling Bee" made me more intent than ever to sneak out sometime next week to see the show. I love "unpredictable fun," especially in a theater production. What I'm not enjoying is the unpredictability of theater reviews. I'm never sure when a review is going to come out anymore. With the T-D, I know something will show up within a few days of opening night (usually..). With other media outlets it can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks. Or one never shows up at all. Kinda frustrating.
Anyway, this weekend is all about Theatre IV's "Christmas Carol" for me, though I hope to see AART's "Black Nativity" as well. Have you finished YOUR holiday shopping yet?

Glad to hear that you find it frustrating. For those of us waiting for the all-important publicity, it ranges from aggravating to crippling.
That came across as more bitchy than I had intended. I intended it to read as a "Hell yeah. It sucks for both of us."
Well Andrew, at least you signed your name to your "bitchy" comment, didn't go anonymous!
I hope you can catch Bus Stop too Dave! A fun, funny and sweet slice of Americana!
A bunch of my students went to see "Bus Stop" last week and loved it.
