enjoying the bard....

 We went to Arena Dinner Theater this evening.  The dinner was tasty, especially the cheese cake dessert.  The play was hilarious, and I don't use that term lightly.  "I Hate Hamlet" written by Paul Rudnick and beautifully directed by Chris Murphy was so much fun.  Every actor in it did an amazing job.  I particularly enjoyed Kate Black as Lillian Troy and Todd Frymier as the ghost of John Barrymore.  Lead actor Sean Findley did an exceptional job of playing a young actor torn between playing Hamlet in the park and making millions in a sit-com in Hollywood.  Every silly thing you've ever thought about a Shakespeare play was probably touched on here.  From the opening lines to the staged bows for the curtain call it was great.  Lucky for you it's running for five more performances, March 22, 23, 28 & 29.  I highly recommend it.
