I started this blog with one daughter, kept it up with the other, to spend time together doing something we enjoyed.
However, things change and people evolve. My daughters are older, busier, and not as interested in writing.
From now on this blog will be mostly mom with occasional contributions from my daughters and maybe even my husband.
Nothing else will change. We'll still focus on sharing fun places to go, fun things to do, and more, and we would  still love to hear your views too

More Theater Monday - Love in Idleness

We received complimentary tickets to Love in Idleness for review purposes. Any and all opinions expressed here are our own 


What: Love in Idleness 

Where: The Actor's Temple Theatre 
            339 W. 47th St.
            New York, NY

When: This event took place from November 21 - November 24, 2024

Love in Idleness is a modern musicalization of A Midsummer Night's Dream. In this version, A scientist invents a drug to make his husband fall back in love with him but things go awry when a couple of characters ingest it by mistake causing several mismatched pairs. A right-wing group hoping to get a hold of the drug to convert gay people makes the show extremely timely and gives it a little bit of gravitas. That particular plotline notwithstanding, the show is mostly harmless fun. The standout performers in the production were the quintet of actors who made up the contemporary Greek chorus moving the story along through song and dance. They were a particular delight.


And that's our view. 

Tune in tomorrow for Tips for Tuesday.
