Old School Subway!

Last weekend Seth and I got to ride an old fashioned subway!  On Sundays in December apparently the MTA runs an old fashioned train along part of the F line as part of a nostalgia type thing.  It's also good advertising for the MTA museum.

It was fun to not only see the old subway cars, but get to ride them!  The other funny part was seeing the confused looks of the people who were expecting an F train but got this instead.

Pocatello

Last night Kari and I saw a play at Playwright Horizons called Pocatello.  These were the tickets that Kari and won at the Broadway Flea Market.  This is the first time I've ever seen anything at this theatre and it was a really good play!

It was about this guy who is the general manager of an Olive Garden (though they never really say this is where it takes place) and about living in the small town of Pocatello, Idaho.  It had really interesting characters and seemed to basically just be about human interaction in small town America.

The set was really cool so I took a sneaky picture of it
At Playwright Horizons they also have a silly photo booth that sends you the picture to your email.  So here is me and Kari being silly before the show!



This is a pretty interesting interview with the author if you're interested in knowing more!

On the Town

I hear the one thing about New York is that it's a hellava town!  For Black Friday Kari and Ashley and I were able to get last minute tickets to see On the Town.

Basically....it was really weird!  I've never seen the movie either but the only way I can explain it is that it's like a dance concert where a plot breaks out in the middle.  The dancing was fantastic, but the plot definitely leaves something to be desired.  Oh well!  I'm still glad I saw it :)

Here's a fun video the cast did in actual locations of NYC!
