See a Broadway show

Okay, I’m gonna consider this goal completed… even though I did not see an opera performance, I saw a Broadway show in NYC (well, off-Broadway but still pretty much the same thing).

My friends and I managed to snag some cheap tickets for Avenue Q during the student rush. Can you believe $26.50 for front row seats? :D And the show itself was awesome. Good singing, good acting, good comedy, good visuals.

I was a bit skeptical with the puppets at first, but the show wouldn’t have been as enjoyable if not for the puppets.

So… I didn’t end up seeing the opera because of complications. I ended up giving my tickets away. But hey, there’s still another time.

My friend managed to snag some cheap tickets for Otello by Giuseppe Verdi. Yes, it’s based on Shakespeare’s Othello, so I’m pretty excited. I’m reading a detailed summary right now so I understand how it goes… and maybe I’ll try listening to the songs before hearing them on stage.
