Chicago and Dublin Carol
I had a great experience last week, traveling to Chicago to see Dublin Carol. Actually I saw it three times figuring that since I didn't see it in Providence when it was only an hour or so away I owed it to myself to maximize my viewing. What a great show. Steppenwolf was modern and very comfortable for theater watching. Our seats were excellent being in the fifth, fourth and sixth row with wonderful sight lines, We were so close that I could have tossed him my room key if I had really wanted to. The cast was great although Billy was so good to watch in the role of John Plunkett that it was very easy to watch him even when the other actors were speaking. The play could be a very somber one based on the subject but there were many funny moments throughout. The ending was very sad but hopeful that John was about to take a step towards reconciliation with his family and Billy let us feel it all. Chicago was great too. I hope others have as good an experience as I had.
