Marg and I attended the closing of "Hard Days Knight: Music of the Beatles" last night. It was, as expected, a great show. They had a sell-out crowd so Marg's table was in the back row. Paying customers get the premier tables. Still, it wasn't too bad being so far back. At one point, I wished I'd brought my binoculars to see the facial expressions of the cast (written with tongue in cheek).
The music was the best part of the show. One actor (Sir Lancelot) sang two exceptionally great solos. Now, that show is off to Alberta and a new cast is rehearsing for the opening this coming Friday of the next Winnipeg show, featuring the songs of Buddy Holly, considered the pioneer of early rock and roll. I'm looking forward to attending that with Marg (hopefully at a better table).
What fun and joy to attend regular musicals. The kids gave us tickets to Huey Lewis and The News playing at Casino Rama in July. Once again we can be with a bunch of past their prime old foggies like we are!
