The Dream of the Marionettes'
So I did something that I don't usually do. I took myself out. It was nice. I treated myself to a night of theatre. My friend Katrina (pictured above) is in a burlesque musical at Cite des Art called The Dream of the Marionettes. The show is about a group of marionette puppets who come to life and take control over their puppet master.
It was a good show. It was good to be back at Cite. And it was even better to see Theatre in Acadiana blooming. The show was completly sold out. I got there and Cite was packed. I had to be placed on a waiting list and was lucky to even see the show.
Now the people behind the show had it going on. They took over Cite. In the lobby there were belly dancers, the greeters were in costume, there was a tarot card reader. I did want to get my tarot card read, but I didn't get a chance to...I'm also fearful of what might be said. Maybe one day, if the oppurtunity presents itself again. Also there were many stops during the show, as part of the show where they collected money. Part of one of the songs, the girls start selling candy, literally. That's one hell of a way to make some cash. There was even a merchandise stand where you could buy postcards of the cast. I mean, The Dream of the Marionettes were on their grand hustle.
Be on the lookout for my friend Katrina's play. She will premeire her own original play at Cite des Art in June of 2010.
