An American In Paris

We had tickets for An American In Paris this afternoon. For the show she wore a white dress with pink polka dots and her pink beret – the same French inspired outfit she wore to Sabrina Fair.

We arrived early at the theater. We had time to take pictures and get snacks before seating began. It was nice to relax in our seats for a little while although, as usual, Marina was impatient for the show to begin.

When the show started, Marina really like it. She said it was “cute.” Much of the storyline was told through dance, which Marina enjoyed. At intermission, she didn’t want to leave our seats. Instead, she laid her head down and rested. When the lights went down for Act Two I nudged her. The way she looked up at me I could tell she had been asleep. She said she felt fine though.

The second act had even more big dance sequences which we enjoyed. I was surprised Marina hadn’t heard any of the Gershwin songs before, but she seemed to like them.

Once the show was over, Marina was ready to go home. She slept a bit in the car on the way home. Fortunately, we had an easy trip back.
