A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder

I went with mom to see this lovely show tonight. I waited in the rush line starting at 8 AM (2 hours of sitting on the pavement) but since it was a 2 show day, I was definitely getting tickets (there were only 11 people in front of me) It was still funny this time, though I knew all the jokes this time, so it wasn't AS funny as the first time. BUT mom did laugh. She said that it was hard to just watch the show because she already knew about the movie it was based on, and she was comparing Alec Guinness to Jefferson Mays. She really enjoyed the dinner scene where the spitting happens.
 Mom also really enjoyed the Major. His outfit is absolutely ridiculous! My dad would've enjoyed his short scene.
 As always, the "I've Decided to Marry You" song was very popular. The audience loved it, and it really is the perfect choreographed acting song. I believe the scene completely. Even from the box, I could see pretty much everything.

We were seated in the house right box, so the only thing I missed continuously was Monty's desk scenes. Everything else was pretty easy to see. The seats cost $42, so again, it was another cheap way to see a great show! Definitely worth the cost. The effects of the projections was a little off for us because we weren't in the center, but that's ok.
