Evenin', all...
I'm back from my LION KING experience. I must say that while it is the most visually stunning thing I've ever seen on a stage, I wasn't moved by it. The actors were trying - really they were - but I think the combination of 40-pound headdresses and 9 years of the same overblown kiddie show, they were just going through the motions. Still, you can't help but gasp when you see all those "animals" onstage. Or when the strange Chippendale hyenas do their dance special. I didn't quite get why those five were shirtless, sexy hyenas, but it certainly perked up a select portion of the audience.
After the movie, I decided that I did not wish to return to the apartment and the drivel, so I got myself a ticket to see "Cry_Wolf," which I had figured out in the first 10 minutes. Still, it was a fun, mindless on-campus horror flick, so that was fun.
Now I'm home. I've been catching up on the notes and I'm terribly curious to check out the Emmy winners list now that I've read all of your comments. I already know who won Best Actress in a Comedy (thanks to AOL), so now it's time to read the rest...
Oh! DR Jose: Olivia Newton-John, October 11, Nokia Theatre. The tickets are $44.50. Still interested?? I am!!
