Country Folk Go To Town

The husband and I went to a play last night. Actually, a musical.

A friend from work got a part in the Little Shop of Horrors at the local civic theatre. We couldn't pass up a chance to go root him on so the husband, another coworker and myself went to watch.

The husband said I didn't tell him it was a musical. He was a little skeptical. A little culture wasn't gonna hurt him.

The pictures aren't very good. I had to be covert. Photography was prohibited. Did they really think that was going to stop ME from taking pictures. Please! The husband said I'm an outlaw!

That's my friend, Joe, on the left with his hand puppet. Oh, I'm gonna give him all kinds of grief about that hand puppet!

They did a great job. We enjoyed it. Well, the husband described it as "different" but I'll take that as it was okay. The funniest moment came after the musical. As you leave, the actors are lined up for you to congratulate them and talk. The very first lady looked at the husband and said "Bet you would rather be huntin' then here, huh!" I busted out laughing. She had him pegged!

I love this play. I was fortunate enough to see it at the Golden Gate Theater in San Fran.
I can't believe you got your hubby to go. I would have to kill mine and drag him. Even if we knew somebody in the dang thing.

I'd bet the hubby cleaned up real pretty but he still wore his hat, wranglers and shit-kickers, huh? Can take the boy outta the country..not the country outta the boy! I roped my hubby into seeing a operita (Camelot)once and he tilted his head back and went to sleep!

I think the husband's camo cap that he wore the whole night might have given him away as to where he would be most comfortable.....and Joe said that the reason they prohibit photography is because of the flash.....they don't really care if photos are taken if there is no flash....but most people are not smart enough to understand "no flash photography" so they ban it all...

Oh what fun!! I have been able to drag my husband to some shows, but not many. He would enjoy the PBR a lot more than a musical!! LOL
