Memphis



The show we saw tonight...

I can't remember the last time I saw a musical. It must have been on a school trip or something. But they've always been enjoyable. Nothing beats a live show.

Overall, this was a good show. Perhaps it's because I haven't watched one in so long. For some reason, it seems like there was A LOT of singing in this one and very little dialogue. I guess because it's a musical about music. Good performance and lots of amazing singers/performers.

But actually, what I find more amusing is my office's choice of entertainment. Today it was "Memphis", a musical about white vs black people in the 1950s. Two years ago, it was the musical "My Mother's Lesbian Jewish Wiccan Wedding". No need to explain that. Both rather controversial. Evidently, I work with some pretty tolerant and open-minded people!
