We went to see Billy Elliott the Musical this afternoon and it was FANTASTIC! We were amazed by the young man who starred in the play. What talent! It is easy to see why this show won so many awards. This is not the first time I've enjoyed a play from the Broadway Lights Series here in Charlotte. These are quality plays with quality performers, most who enjoy a long resume of successes.
Tonight we went to an Upstate NY Club dinner and dance. Peter pretends to be from Plattsburgh so they can participate in this club. (For some reason, Joan and he enjoy the people in this group more than those in the Tri-State Club......go figure!) Anyway, Peter's aunt & uncle lived in Plattsburgh for many years and he visited enough to remember some facts and he fudged his way through some conversations......it was a hoot to listen to him tell bold-faced lies! We had a delicious and plentiful meal and J&P got up to dance a few times. A nice couple sat on my other side and they were very sociable, especially the husband, Patrick. Actually, everyone was very nice and several people stopped by to say hello.
We toasted with a red beverage and had to recite a poem about Red Cat.....funny stuff! There was a trivia contest but our table didn't fare too well.
