There’s certainly no chance of giving a detailed rundown of all the weeks’ events in the time I’m willing to allot for that purpose. So I shall be brief, and leave the various details to fend for themselves in the wide and stormy sea of memory. Staying at school for most of reading week was not the greatest occurence, but in the end it wasn’t too bad.. quiet, there were warm showers, and Erin’s mom shipped up a bunch of food which I got to enjoy. Rehearsals were pretty fun, I got a small, but appreciable amount of work done, and I filled up a lot of time with an enjoyable redecorating project that yielded what I think were pretty nice results: I went to amazon.com, saved the pictures of the covers of all my well-liked albums, arranged them in rows, printed them out, and gave my room a distinctly musical trim 360+ degrees worth. Looks pretty cool, I gotta say.
Back in London, I was greeted by a surprisingly bearded brother, a lovely free trip to a London Knights game (the first live hockey experience of my life.. i’m a shame to all proper hockey loving Canadians), a Matadors show that was reportedly more filled with violent outbursts than I noticed at the time, some pretty fun gaming at Brian’s, a mouth burning party at Adam’s, and a charming roast beef lunch before getting shipped back to Steeltown.
Now, I feel, is an appropriate time to divulge the release date information of Lysistrata (think, ‘o christmas tree’ for pronunciation purposes), directed by Vince Male:

Times: Thursday, March 4 @ 12:30pm and again at 8:00pm followed by Soldier Dreams
Friday, March 5 following Soldier Dreams which is at 8:00pm
And that’s about it. Whoever you happen to be, consider yourself warmly and cordially invited.
