Charles Dickens “A Christmas Carol” play at SecondStory Repertory. Strong primary actors especially Scrooge. Pleasantly surprised w/ the live music & singing. But not a fan of the cliche sentimentality & cuteness common w/ many stage renditions of this classic. #xmas #humbug
“Frost / Nixon” at SecondStory Repertory w/ dad. Interesting dramatic portrayal of a potentially dry topic. Timely play considering the impeachment inquiry against the current president. #Watergate #Nixon #politics #scandal #impeach
Stephen Sondheim’s “Assassins” at SecondStory Repertory. Rich talented voices. But no plot. Not sure what message this musical was trying to convey. Maybe pro gun control? #murder
Steel Magnolias at SecondStory Repertory. Good actresses & dialogue. But the script desperately needed better plot progression & more scene changes. Surprised that this play inspired 3 screen adaptations. #DrinkYourJuiceShelby #diabetes
Watched “Reefer Madness: The Musical.” Blown away by the talent of these community performers (and I’ve seen a professional production of this musical). Most everybody looked so fit when scantily clad! One of the best SecondStory Repertory shows I’ve seen. #marijuana #weed #MaryJane
