all the world's a stage
A lot of interesting revivals are coming to Broadway this season. Matthew Broderick and Sara Jessica Parker are bringing back Plaza Suite. Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster will appear in The Music Man -- Drew is dying to see that one, it's his favorite musical (though the cost of the tickets is insane).
And then, there's West Side Story. I've seen the movie a dozen times, I saw the Broadway revival in the 1980's, and yes, that was me in the back row of the chorus in our high school production...
The producers are promising us a show "unlike anything America has seen before".
We have our tickets and will be seeing the show in April.
And anyone who doubts the relevance or authenticity of West Side Story need only pick up a copy of a local newspaper ...
Earlier this week there was a brawl at a Long Island strip mall involving young men, still in high school, apparently over a girl...And when it was over, one young man was dead, and another was in the hospital with serious injuries to his arm and head.
Drew teaches in the high school where the deceased had been a student. Fun times....

I have recently become a fan of Sutton Foster. That would be quite the show.
