On Saturday, Josh and I were treated to a local production of CATS. (It was a dinner theater, so we had strange, white, congealed chicken included as an entree). I had several friends in the cast, and I am KICKING myself for not bringing my camera, because the costumes were phenomanal. Of course, I had a lot invested in their outfits, because the store helped buy their jazz shoes and their shiny, lycra, unitards. Highlights of the show (involving my friends of course):
1. Darren jumped up on a gigantic cardboard tin can and gyrated his hips in true Elvis fashion.
2. Katie played the innocent “White Cat,” and spent some very convincing time cleaning herself and making friends with Grizabella, the old, rejected kitty.
3. Angela rocked her costume, proving that if you have legs that go on forever you can truly own the unitard. She also did some very convincing kitty cat eye twitching.
4. Arlee tap danced, inspiring Darren and I to find a way to insert a random tap number in my upcoming show.
The above folks mentioned will be in my featured “L” Project and I am thrilled. Now I have to buckle down and actually create a show…which I’m avoiding right now by blogging. Damn.
