For a birthday surprise, Holly took me to see Hello Dolly in the unexpected March snow storm. I thought Jennifer Lewis did a great job in this. Pat Cashman was OK. You can typically expect a few mishaps on opening night. I felt it made it all that more entertaining. The costumes had the most amazing colors. Traditional, period detail, but modern colors and fabric choices. I loved it! The sets were very cool too. One thing Holly and I love doing together is attending the performing arts. I'm pretty excited for the 2009-2010 5th Ave Theatre season. South Pacific is coming to Seattle, and we've never seen that. Also, Irving Berlin's White Christmas is coming back to Seattle this December. WE LOVED THAT IN 2006! We will be seeing that show again this holiday season. Thanks for the nice birthday experience honey.

It was a good evening out! I loved the costumes as well, the vivid colors were so beautiful against the dark backdrops. That said, it wasn't my favorite musical by far...but better than 7B's for 7B's.
I love the theatre! We saw South Pacific a few years ago. It was great! Except for the couple that brought their garlic infused leftovers into the theater...we always seem to sit near stinky people when we go to plays...
Hey birthday boy! I look at your blog but don't comment much... sorry! It is sooo cool and you guys are way more tech savvy than myself!!! I love reading when I can!
Oh Kristin, that is so gross! I feel like I attract the stinkies on the bus, but that is for a short 40 min, I can't imagine a whole play. Yikes!
