Spur of the moment thing, I got two tickets for tomorrow (Sunday 6/20) evening’s performance of [_Musical of Musicals_](http://www.walnutstreettheatre.org/season/musical.php), a satire/pastiche/homage to, yes, musicals. I also don’t know a single person IRL who both a) would enjoy this and b) is around this weekend. I don’t mind going alone, but hey, I’ve got an extra (free!) ticket.

If you’d like to join me, post here, or shoot me a PM or email.

I just wanted to say that a friend of mine choreographed that production. Wish I could go; enjoy!

Bueller? Anyone?

(Who’da thunk the fact that it’s Father’s Day would be a problem for so many people?)

Sorry, wasn’t keeping an eye on this thread.

Yes, it sure is – just sent you a PM.

Yay! Glad someone can use it.

**Schrodinger’s Platypus** did, in fact, join me, and a delightful time was had by all. Er, both.

What a fun show! Enjoyed it tremendously, really glad I went. Your choreographer friend did a great job – he or she really captured all the different styles. (As did the performers and the people who wrote it.)

Oh, you wanted musical-lovers! I thought you wanted musical lovers, so I didn’t bother.
