Chicago Theater - simply incredible

This last week I had the pleasure of enjoying two very well executed productions:

The Odd Couple at Raven Theater


This particular show had two men as the main characters (sometimes it is two women)


It was an intense show with lots of laughs and tension. Being sure of myself that this type of amazing theater must be a fluke, I had to attend another one:

Love's Labor's Lost at Oak Park Festival


All I can say is: Ceder City has new Rivals! At first I was skeptical, walking into this beautiful old park seeing a stage that looked somewhat thrown together (though the set pieces were beautiful, the stage itself didn't do the show justice) but I found myself enjoying every minute. Even during the intermission the technicians let me look at their cool lighting board. Rock on chicago! I can't wait to see more.

Rock on, Kelty IN Chicago! I think your new hometown beats Madrid which says a lot! It's full of fascinating culture and you're willing to partake of it's offerings.

Keep picking all the RIPE FRUIT hanging from those Chicago trees. I love reading about your adventures.
