Our night at Starlight Mountain Theatre!


Well, Reed and I were going to try and go out of town this weekend on a little trip for our anniversary. Since that didn't happen, I decided that it would be really fun to go to Starlight Mountain Theatre instead, and so last night we did. We went and saw "Crazy For You", and even though I didn't know anything about the play, or that it also happened to be its opening night, it was AWESOME! I was really impressed. They actually had some really cool dance numbers that looked pretty difficult! I also enjoyed the music, because it was music that I knew, but didn't actually know that it came from this play. Overall, I would HIGHLY recommend going to see this play! It is totally worth it. Reed and I would absolutely go and see it again with anyone who wants to have company.
By the way, they announced while we were up there that Starlight Mountain Theatre is actually having some financial difficulties (because of the fires in their area, patrons have been scared to come) and some of their financers are thinking it should be closed, so they decided that if 5 people buy a brick every night(you know, the ones that sit out in the courtyard of the theatre with peoples names on them) then they will make it. So, I'm making a bid. 1 smallish brick costs $100, and Reed says we can't afford to just throw away that kind of money, but he will let me spend $25, so I'm just wondering, does anyone want to go in on a brick? I am dead serious about this. I like Starlight Mountain Theatre that much. Just let me know, k?

I've never seen SMT before but have always wanted to. I really enjoy musicals! With us being unemployed and I also just spent the last of our "charity" budget for the month of July, I hesitate to contribute as much as I would like to. It's a good cause. If you can't solicate the rest of the $100, let me know and we'll go ahead and contribute a little.

Sounds like a good cause. Wish I could help out. Good luck!

I have always wanted to see SMT but haven't yet had the chance. I wish I could donate...have to talk to my DH. I'll let you know. :)

I was not aware there were a lot of fires in the area up there . . . didn't we have spring until about two weeks ago? How did all the fires start so quickly?

I'll go in on a brick! Does that mean all our names can go on it? I don't want SMT to go under. They give me a reason to go to the mountains (without getting all stinky from camping). :)

Actually, Laura, the fires have been in the last 2 years I believe, not just this year. Really, I'm hoping that a couple of people, maybe 3 others besides Reed and myself will contribute $25 and then we can all have our names printed on the brick together. If we get more people, we could get a LARGER brick! :) I like that idea a lot.
