a brief detour from the travelog

More about my trip tomorrow but now let me tell you about the play I sawn this evening. "A Mighty Fortress" was presented in honor of the 500th anniversary of Martin Luther nailing his 95 thesis on the church door and effectively starting the reformation. It was well done, dffectively a one-man show except for the prologue, the acting was good and the message was powerful.  As a lapsed Lutheran, it brought back memories of many things I remember from religion classes during my 9 years (K-8) of Lutheran school. His "I cannot and will not recant." speech was particularly effective. This play was produced by 'all for One productions' and staged at the Auer center. The only thing I didn't enjoy were the audience chairs, molded plastic, which I found very uncomfortable. Evidently they were molded with someone elses body in mind.
