Miss one weekend...

Boy, miss one weekend of theater around this town and you'll have a devil of a time catching up. I've been juggling my calendar every which way trying to figure out how to get to see everything and I've finally come to the conclusion that I'm going to have to miss a show. Now it's just a matter of figuring out which one. Part of the issue is that Thursday isn't available because of other family commitments.

I'll also have to wait to see Valparaiso until it's second weekend. Not a big deal normally, except that my husband is in it and I do like to watch him perform--preferably more than once during a run. However, that won't happen this time around. So, those of you who do make it to see Valparaiso at Icarus Falling's new site, Michigan Homegrown Music, will you tell me what you thought of it?

Other shows going on this weekend:

• My name is Rachel Corrie, Sunsets with Shakespeare at Woldumar Barn
• Desperate Hours, Lansing Civic Players at Hannah Community Center
• Doubt, BoarsHead at BoarsHead
• Recent Tragic Events, Michigan State University at the Arena Theatre

There is also a Lansing Symphony Orchestra performance that sounds like it's going to be fantastic.
