The past couple weeks have been pretty interesting. I was in NY/NJ all of last week for the birth of my nephew, James Brown. He is perfection in a bundle and I can pretty much guarantee that he will be doted upon by everyone.
I spent the last week catching up on work, and tomorrow, I'll be leaving for Mexico City for the next five days.
During this time I've managed to catch Romeo and Juliet in Central Park, Spring Awakening on Broadway, and Iphigénie en Tauride by Gluck at the SF Opera. I'm not sure how Spring Awakening swept the Tony awards this year, but if this was the best musical of '07, then everything else must have sucked. The story just did not appeal to me, although the music was decent. As for Iphigénie en Tauride, I was amazed at the production. I'm normally not a fan of modern interpretations, but this completely worked for me. It had me mesmerized from the start with its amazing opening.
