A belated birthday
And a survey about the lack of ability to donate blood in the city
Quick one today. I went to the penultimate performance of Sexy Laundry at Theatre Northwest yesterday (one show has been added due to a missed performance last week, so you have a chance to see it if you were meaning to). I’m not sure I’ve ever been at a theatre performance with quite as enthusiastic an audience as last night, with lots of hooting, hollering and words of affirmation from the crowd.

We saw Sexy Laundry on the weekend! Great play.
I think it’s standard procedure for the crowd to crank it to 11 for the final show and USUALLY there’s a bit of pranking between actors and crew that the crowd doesn’t always see. I think these shows are the ones that the real theater buffs enjoy turning out for!
