Enjoyable Excellence: REDO

See, that's what happens when I slap something up just because I haven't posted anything in a while. It turns out like my previous post. Bleah!

Let me try again:

Place: Shakespeare Tavern, Atlanta, GA. Play: "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead". 2nd intermission. I lean across the table toward my husband and say, "In my opinion, 'The Player' is stealing the show." He nods enthusiastically, "I know who my loudest applause will be for." Not that the two leads were bad; they weren't. There were no weak actors in the production, in fact. Hamlet was amusing, the queen quite painfully dressed, but ah, Drew Reeves, I think his name was, was a delight to watch. He far outperformed Richard Dreyfuss' rendering in the movie.

We need to see these plays more often.
