Three Shows

We watched three shows last week and enjoyed each one immensely.

Last Thursday we caught the 7pm showing of Dulaang UP's production of Anton Chekov's "The Seagull" with my AP English students, whose ambivalent reviews of the play were all at the same time silly and profound.

And then on Saturday night, I attended my first concert ever, which featured Foster the People. The music was delightful but I enjoyed observing the ecstatic spectators most of all, especially the one I had to my left.

Finally, last Sunday, we watched Seth McFarlane's "Ted," which, for all its frivolity and crudeness, is in truth the best movie I have seen in a while.
