Theater

We have been season ticket subscribers to PM&L Theater for the last four or five years and before that when our kids were young. In general, the shows have been wonderful and the musicals were fun and lyrical.

The show we went to yesterday was "Sunday in the Park with George", which is a musical. But to us the melodies weren't. It was very boring and the music though performed well was not pleasant. We enjoy more music that is easy to sing and with a fun beat, musicals like The Apple Tree or 1776 or Mamma Mia. The members of the cast did well but it was not my cup of tea! Others might have enjoyed it more than we did, my problem is with the musical itself rather than with the theater. But a big advantage of the theater is that it air conditioned since I am too cheap to air condition our house.

The next show is "Our Town" and I expect it will be well done.
