Duncan's grandmother asked him to say what his favourite 5 theatre experiences were this year.
After some reflection, he said that for 'musicals, it was Rock of Ages (followed by Wicked and Legally Blonde). For 'plays', his favourite wewas One Man Two Guvnors (followed by Noises Off)
It was a bit tricky coming up with a top 5 list.
First, we needed to figure out how many things he has seen altogether. The list was large, not only because him mother dragged him to so many things, but also because his grandmother and aunt wyona came to visit so frequently during the year, and the two of them are west end junkies.
They, determined to expand his horizons, and expose him to the best that live theatre has to offer, took him along with them on their excursions.
Thus, in addition to his top 5, this year duncan saw the following:
Matilda, Billy Elliot, Wizard of Oz, Singing in the Rain, Sunshine Boys, Betty Blue Eyes, The Railway Children, Britain's Got Bhangra, Cool Hand Luke - The Musical, Evenings on a Farm Near Dikanka (in Russian with surtitles!?), Slave - A Question of Freedom, Comedy of Errors, Shrek, The Lion King, Chicago, Crazy for You, Masterclass, Soul Sister....
Hmmm..... when i type it out, even i have to admit that the list is long... hahaha
How about Les Mis? Didn't Duncan see that gem? Two-four-six-eight-one!

Poor Duncan. Really.
ReplyDeleteNow I understand why he was sick of going to shows.
Can't a boy just stay home and play on the Wii? Really.
His mother and his grandmother and his great-aunt are wicked. I mean really wicked.
Perfect Aunt Mary
