The Play that Goes Wrong

To finish up Saturday night, this was our little splurge.  We got to attend a performance at the Kennedy Center.

The Kennedy Center is huge and they have several theaters/productions all running at the same time.  

We decided on The Play That Goes Wrong because it was supposed to be funny and as a family, it would be the most enjoyable for all of us.  It didn't disappoint!

Tickets were all sold out when I started looking.  There was a message on the website to keep looking as it got closer to performance time as seats will sometimes open up.  I kept checking back frequently  for all of the evenings we would be here and 4 seats popped up, in the orchestra section no less in the center of the theater.  It was perfect and they end up being fantastic seats!

 We took the Metro.  It had a Kennedy Center stop that was a short walk.  The Kennedy Center also has a free shuttle right when you exit the Metro so that you don't have to walk and that was fabulous as we had just walked for hours and it was dipping down into the 30's and we were getting cold!

Performance was perfect!  It is basically a comedy of errors and as Ladybug said, the worst nightmare for a tech person.  By the end of the show the entire stage had literally fallen apart and walls had fallen down, everything broke, actors were knocked out, lighting and sound forgot their cues, actors forgot their lines.  Very incredibly funny.

Back to the Metro for the ride back to our hotel stop and a short walk.  

Yet another good day!
