Oh the joys of unemployment

You would think that since I am currently unemployed, I would have a multitude of things to blog about. Negative. I have tried to keep myself somewhat distracted so that I don't dwell on the fact that I have no job and no income. This is a great way to celebrate my birthday (which is 6 days away by the way).

On Monday night I did see Evil Dead: The Musical. Gotta love working in this industry...you get comp offers constantly! So I had a date with myself and trekked into midtown through the freezing winds and saw a very interesting piece of theatre. It was very comical and I enjoyed the campiness of the piece. BUT, the songs are not catchy and I was (I hate to say it) disappointed with the choreography. Hinton Battle is the choreographer. Most of you know him as the demon in the Once More With Feeling. The musical episode from Buffy The Vampire Slayer. I wanted, well expected, much more out of Battle.

There were some definite stand out performances. Jenna Coker was fantastic. Her comedic timing, singing, dancing, everything was just brilliant. Was totally blown away by her. Long story longer, I mean short, I would totally see this show again, with a large group and I would sit in the "splatter zone". ;)
