The Director Sector

I’ve realized that I really suck at the whole review thing, so I’m basically just gonna say that you all need to see  “Maria’s Field” by TUTA.  While the concept of the play isn’t exactly my thing (literally tying space and time together), the rest of the show was phenomenal:  acting, scenery, costumes, etc.  Great stuff.  Tickets aren’t that expensive ($15, I think) and you can grab them the DCA Theater.
Last night I went to see “And They Put Handcuffs On The Flowers” by The Right Brain Project.  It was pretty amazing.  Again, I suck at reviews, so I’ll just leave it at “Amazing.”

Afterward, Bob and I went with the cast to a bar where we proceeded to… okay, I take that back.. where THEY proceeded to drink (and I watched).  The first little bit was a little awkward for me, because I’m not great at social situations like bars.  Partly because I don’t drink.

Anyway, I met a ton of my fellow bloggers and got to see a few people I hadn’t seen in awhile, so all-in-all, it was a great great evening.

This coming weekend I’m going to try and make a performance of Touch, as I’ve heard nothing but rave reviews about the show, from the direction of Jessica Hutchinson to the lights and sound to Dan Granata’s Don-Hall-Bawling-Like-A-Baby inducing performance.  I’m really looking forward to it and to getting back out there and into theatre again.
If any of you readers in Chicago want to meet up for dinner, drinks, shows, or just plain sit around and talk, hit me up.

More thoughts to come soon.
