Anyone going to be taking in this production of Humperdinck's "Hansel and Gretel" at their local movie theater?

The show begins at 1 EST today.

I can't go today, but I do hope to go see Macbeth next weekend.

Considering I did H&G last year with LA, I don't have plans to see this.

I looked at the future schedule for the Met live broadcasts and I can't go to ANY of them except La Boheme in April. But it's all the way in April. I reserved tickets already though haha

It's actually rather expensive - $20 or so! I'm waiting for La Boheme.

So, that was the Drowsy Chaperone. Oh, I love it so much. I know it's not a perfect show...but it does what a musical is supposed to do. It takes you to another world, and it gives you a little tune to carry with you in your head for when you're feeling blue. Ya know?

The price isn't actually all that bad when you consider that the cheapest seats at the Met--which are $15 on weekdays and $42 on weekends--are in the Family Circle, five levels above the orchestra, whereas $22 for the transmission practically puts you on the stage.

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body
