1327 West

I went to see a collection of short plays called 1327 West: Six Modern Cityscapes With Prologue.

I thought it was uneven, but there were flashes of clever writing, and a lot of vibrant performances. I especially liked Karolyn Ake for her stage presence, or, perhaps, for the way she seemed to be utterly absorbed in whatever she was playing. I think my favorite piece was actually the prologue, which opened with an all-too-heartfelt debate on how the work "pumpkin" is properly pronounced.

And... only ten dollars to get in.

I feel
ten dollars really
was a steal.
