Vingt Regards:XIX. No Word from M. C—

My mouth is still full from a weekend of gluttony, which included an early dinner and late drinks on Friday—with just enough time to slot in the first act of The Rake's Progress (video) on opening night. What a welcome relief to see a creative, simple, witty, beautiful, insightful production that avoided both the staid and the silly (at least in Act I). Hopefully they'll fix Baba's beard glue by the time I go back for Act II.

Bloggers were out in force: the Tattler, Out West and sfmike have already weighed in, and I expect we'll hear from SFist Ced and Reverberate Patrick presently.

[Confidential to pjwv: Last-minute change of plans; I looked around at intermission but Your Rakishness was nowhere to be found...]
