Phillip and I before the show! If you look closely, you can see a big mark on my forehead leftover from wearing a baseball cap all morning. CLASSY, I KNOW.
This afternoon ten of us went to the Kuwait Little Theatre to enjoy the annual pantomime. Cathy booked our tickets nice and early - right after they went on sale - and so we ended up in the second row for the first time ever! Now, you'd think that second row would be close to the "best seats in the house"...........well, SOME OF US encountered one of the following scenarios that made the experience a little less than TOP-NOTCH...
1) I sat behind a really tall woman who brought a pillow to sit on. (YEP, THAT HAPPENED). It also just so happened that this woman had PERFECT POSTURE and I couldn't even count on a wee slouch to enhance my viewing area. (On an optimistic note, she did prove to be a useful when I required a water barrier later in the show).
2) Second row places you in a position that allows panto characters (like a man dressed up as a woman) to interact with you in front of the entire audience. Haha - this "problem" was one faced by Phillip, who was worked into the production and referred to many times throughout the show!
Here she is - SARA! The woman who was crushing on Phillip :)
The majority of our crew believe that Cathy should be the one to book the tickets for the upcoming musical in order to get "V.I.P." seats once again! Phil is unsure of this idea and had his fair share of theatrics today ;) I'm just hoping they put a pillow ban on all individuals who enter the venue!
Haha - all jokes aside, it was a wonderful outing to get us into the holiday spirit!!! (I'm not talking about me here. But some of us weren't already IN that spirit.....)
