todayiamadaisyLive my life for me, f-list! I have to go to Brisbane in a few weeks. The meeting I'm there for starts at 8am, so I'll be there the night before and, depending on what time I get there, I may have time to see a show. Won't that be exciting? It looks like these are my choices:
1. Mother Courage and her Children: That's not a production likely to come to the City by the Sea and it's likely to be interesting and thought-provoking. On the other hand, I'm going to spend all the following day talking about accounting, so if I see this, the whole trip is going to be something of a downer.
2. The Bolshoi Ballet performing Le Corsaire: Again, unlikely to visit my part of the world, and this one is unlikely to be depressing. On the other hand, I find myself getting very cross during ballets due to the way they expect the audience to applaud after every little solo or whatever. Don't milk it, ballet dancers. Actors don't expect us to clap after every soliloquy. Hmph.
Anyway, what do you think?
