I've never been to Wicked.
My daughter just got invited to go with a friend to this summer's production of Broadway Across America's Wicked! Her friend will be celebrating her sweet 16th birthday and wanted to do something special. When I mentioned that Wicked is coming to town, that seemed to be just right. Now my daughter will join her friend and a couple of other girls to see just what happened before Dorothy got to OZ.

star cinema grill
I've never been to the Star Cinema Grill.
This is a special movie theater with a special menu. It is like a movie theater only you have tables built into your seat. You can order from a special menu that includes appetizers, entrees, sides, snacks and desserts. You can push a light to call your waiter any time. No children under five are allowed in the theater and no children or teens are allowed without a parent. They show new releases and tonight they even showed a local NFL football game on the big screen!

theater gutting
I've never been to a theater gutting.
But today I was saddened to see one in process. I went to visit the theater where my family has performed over the last six years. It is located at a community college and has been a place for many community members of all ages to perform. But due to lots of damage from Hurricane Ike, the theater is having to be gutted. It was sad to drive up and see the whole costume shop laid out in the lawn, bagged to be thrown out. Most of it is not salvageable due to the mold that has set in. They would not let me stay and help out; it is a health hazard and I would have to have a respirator to work there. But the spirit of the theater lives on. Although they did have to cancel the fall show, the auditions and performance of the Christmas show are still moving ahead. The performance will be at another branch campus. And all the damage assures that the college will basically be getting a new theater.

San Jacinto College Theater Auditions
I've never been to San Jacinto College for theater auditions before.
Tonight my daughter went to try out for The Sound of Music. She had lots of fun and it was good for her to audition at a place other than where she has been doing most of her acting. We won't know til later this week if she gets in or not. Perhaps not, as her size seems to be right in between what he is looking for...but she had a good experience. She did get held with the second group to sing, so that was good. It would be pretty exciting if she did get cast....

Broadway
I've never been to Broadway.
I would love to take my kids to see a show on Broadway. They, as well as my husband, have been involved in local community theater. We have seen some great shows put on by Broadway Across America including Beauty and the Beast and Lion King . We love the magic of the theater, and to be able to see these fabulous productions on Broadway would only enhance the experience. To see a show like Wicked on Broadway would be a thrill.
Often, tickets to these shows sell out very quickly. To be able to purchase sold out tickets to a Broadway show,
