A...Yes, that will be three times for me and Dance. A Hat Trick as they say in hockey! *g*<BR/><BR/>I'll be seated one row behind you in the centre for that visit as well. Might I suggest you keep an eye on the mirror over the mantle. I didn't realize what an important role it plays in the production until we'd move to the right hand side of the theatre. It definitely adds a different perspective.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2345409957048753840.post-3068765446837914222008-09-05T01:39:00.000+01:002008-09-05T01:39:00.000+01:00I will post for sure.

My second viewing will be from the centre of the second row, so I'll be closer to the actors but further from seeing the big picture. It'll be interesting - I'm sure I'll concentrate on different details and perhaps even different actors. Your girlfriends' weekend sounds like a lot of fun - so that will be 3 times for you and Dance. Awesome!Blithe Spirithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08212500567025366169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2345409957048753840.post-26252351104046592312008-09-05T00:49:00.000+01:002008-09-05T00:49:00.000+01:00Loving your blog btw.

I'll be back to comment more as soon as the house renovations finish. *grin*<BR/><BR/>I'll share a secret with you, I've seen After the Dance twice already. I'm a student of the era and I'm absolutely fascinated by the play and the way it changes from performance to performance. So much so that I and a group of female friends (who are flying in from around the world just to see Patrick Galligan) are booked to go to the closings of both Dance and The Stepmother. <BR/><BR/>You'll have to post and let me know about your second viewing. I found the play very different the second time around. Perhaps you will to.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2345409957048753840.post-1831375717309875022008-09-04T15:31:00.000+01:002008-09-04T15:31:00.000+01:00Thanks slb44 - I'm definately going to try and see...Thanks slb44 - I'm definately going to try and see it. I was hoping to catch it when I went back to the Shaw to see one of their limited perfomances of Follies, but it was on at the same time - so since I hated to miss a matinee, I'm going to see After the Dance again! Well, I really did love it.Blithe Spirithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08212500567025366169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2345409957048753840.post-31790666708753278882008-09-04T15:20:00.000+01:002008-09-04T15:20:00.000+01:00Just discovered your blog via a regular google sea...Just discovered your blog via a regular google search of my personal interests which seem to coincide with yours in several areas. So I thought I'd stop by and say hello!<BR/><BR/>If you enjoyed Patrick Galligan in After the Dance you could go far from wrong by also seeing The Stepmother. Not only is the play a wonderful platform for women's rights and solidarity, PG has a lovely part in it and it resonates beautifully with his role in AtD and Journey's End.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2345409957048753840.post-86443626727730946822008-09-04T13:20:00.000+01:002008-09-04T13:20:00.000+01:00Hi Nancy,Thanks so much for your nice comments. Ah...Hi Nancy,<BR/>Thanks so much for your nice comments. Ah, I wish I owned the shoes but alas no. I found the photo while browsing the net looking for an example of Edwardian shoes I thought the "fictional" Julia Hedges might wear. But I'm keeping my eyes peeled...we just have to wait until Edwardian fashion comes back into style!Blithe Spirithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08212500567025366169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2345409957048753840.post-64313553223583970062008-09-03T22:39:00.000+01:002008-09-03T22:39:00.000+01:00I absolutely _adore_ the shoes.

I would love (and covet) them even more if I knew that you actually owned them. :-) <BR/><BR/> This visit was prompted by clicking on your highlighted name in the the 'Comments' section of Stuck-in-a-Book - where I became fixated on the shoes. I love finding other neat sites that way - from the various bookish blogs. <BR/><BR/> To close, I want to say I also love your idea of a bookstore. <BR/> Nancy (blogless, I'm afraid)Nancy B T MAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03398481054863651154noreply@blogger.com
