The Muny season opened last week with My Fair Lady. Our season began the same way that last season ended…with a rain-shortened performance. They were about 3/4th of the way through the first act when it started raining. There was about an 45 minute delay and the actors started to come back out on stage when it started raining again so there was another 15 minute delay. The performance started again and about 15 minutes later, it started raining. By this time, it was about 10:30pm and they weren’t even finished with the first act. We decided to head home and, as it turns out, they ended up cancelling the rest of the performance.
Due to all of the rain we’ve been havnig this month, we decided that the grass would probably be too wet for a picnic so we ate dinner at Bottleworks before the show. When it’s either too wet or hot to have a picnic, we usually eat at either Bottleworks or Six Row as both are relatively close to The Muny. Well, Six Row closed earlier this month in anticipation of moving to a new location. Sounds strange to me. Why would you close before the new location is up and running? I sure hope they do open again as it was one of our favorite microbreweries.
Next week, Hairspray.
