We saw "Arsenic and Old Lace" during March Break and really liked it. Michael Richards (Kramer in Seinfield) was funny and the actresses who played the sisters were delightful!<BR><BR>We also liked "We Will Rock You", especially since we are fans of Queen's music. It's quite witty and you do have to stay sharp in order to get all the little "in-jokes".<BR><BR>"Love Labour's Lost" was, for us, a miss: largely because of being set in the 1st World War. In addition, the acting was not particularly noteworthy.<BR><BR>What we should have seen instead: "Stones In His Pockets". Another couple had seen it while we were there and had very much liked it. We were sorry to have run out of available time to see it as well.<BR>

<BR>You have a once in a life time opportunity to see the great Ian McKellen in August Strindberg's "Dance of Death" at the Lyric Theater. This production was seen on Broadway when it starred Ian McKellen and Helen Mirren.<BR><BR>We got good stall tickets for around 60 pounds.

Whoa. I hope you meant that you got them for 60 pounds for two tickets, not each. Otherwise you paid nearly double for the tickets. While it is a show I'd love to see, paying 60 pounds each would be outrageous and also totally unnecessary.

My memory was a bit faulty. Two tickets came to 75 pounds, handling charges brought the total to 81 pounds (about 63 US dollars for each ... but I would pay double that to see Ian McKellen)
