Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead
Hamlet
Love's Labor's Lost
As You Like It
Othello-Othello himself was silly, a ubiquitous TV actor; Iago was amazing.
Little Eyolf-The older woman from the sitcom Wings was the Rat Lady.
Andromache
The Importance of Being Earnest
The Tempest-A park production, ended five minutes early by a quite sublime actual tempest. A blue heron posed nearby picturesquely as the clouds gathered.
The Tempest-At the Globe, with Vanessa Redgrave as Prospero, projecting poorly; also Caliban ate and threw fish heads.
Much Ado About Nothing
Oliver!
The Rise and Rise of Daniel Rocket-Blech.
Godspell
Camelot
To Kill a Mockingbird
Iolanthe (I think?)
Some kind of Pirates of Penzance/HMS Pinafore amalgam.
Also various school sketch thingies over the years.
Attended readings by Maya Angelou and Gloria Naylor; Lilith Fair, concerts by Sarah Mclachlan and Luscious Jackson, various performances by friends' bands or local artists; and been dragged to all kinds of damn ballet things, including a Mark Morris one set to a Handel oratorio based on Milton's l'Allegro & Il Penseroso: and an 18C sequel, by some anonym, called Il Moderato. Too funny.
Couldn't handle the Louvre line. Did the Tates; the Washington and NYC museums multiple times.
Never been to an opera.
