2/18/11 ENTHUSIASM!

A VERY BLUSTERY MORNING

STAGE NORTH THEATER IN WASHBURN
Friday, 8:30 AM.  19 degrees, wind gale force at times, variable but mostly from the W. We had to lean hard into the wind to make progress walking this morning. It is snowing lightly and there is considerable fog over the channel. The sky is mostly clear and the barometer predicts partly cloudy skies. 
    We went to see “Annie” at Stage North in Washburn last night to celebrate Joan’s birthday.  It was an amazingly good production, complete with pit orchestra.  The children were particularly entertaining, and there were a number of quite good adult character actors and singers.  Little Annie sang her heart out, and was always in key. Stage North is a small modern theater, with seating for about 150.  It has a nice bar and lounge area.  The tickets were inexpensive, as it is all or mostly volunteer community theater.  Whatever might be lacking in professionalism is more than made up for by enthusiasm.
