Carrie

Marina has been interested in the Stephen King story Carrie for a few months now. I tried to get her to read the book this summer and while she was interested in it, she never did. So when I heard a local theater company was presenting the show I thought Marina would enjoy it.

The theater is a long drive from home. It was rush hourwhen we left, so the drive took longer than planned. We were able to find parking near the theater. As it turned out, much of the cast of Pippin, which we saw a week ago, were also attending the performance. Marina wanted popcorn munch on during the show. She ate a lot of it.

We both enjoyed the show. The cast was talented and followed the original story fairly well. The fire effects at the end were pretty cool as well. As we were leaving we saw many of the cast members in the lobby. We spoke with several of them and took photos before starting out journey home.
