a strange night...

 My husband and I went to dinner and a play at Arena Dinner Theatre this evening.  The food was good - meatloaf, mashed potatoes and gravy, green beans, salad and caramel apple cake - real comfort food.  Which worked well with the theme of the play - the last night on earth.  The play "The Last Quiz Night on Earth" takes place in an English pub on the evening that a giant asteroid is on a collision course with earth.  No attempts have been able to deflect it so the end is near.  Four people (the actors did an excellent job) spend their last night in a pub hosting a quiz show.  In one way it was a fun show with the audience involved in answering the quiz questions.  Our table got about half of them right.  On the other hand it was weirdly thought provoking.  I came away wondering what I would want to be doing if I knew it was my last night alive?  Certainly not sitting in a pub.  The play is on for one more weekend.  If you want a really different kind of play, I recommend it.
