Joseph musical from Broadway

11th of November, Tuesday

Today was veterans day. On this day, the Americans honor their veterans and they thank them for thei services. The schoolkids celebrate this day by not going to school. So I took advantage of this situation, and slept till 11.
  My day actually started, when Abbey picked me up at 2. We went over to their house, talked and watched Criminal Minds until Kim got home from work. Abbey is really in the middle of apartment hunting in NYC, which I find exciting. I mean, it's the dream, to live in NYC, and one of my friends is actually going to live it!
  Kim, Abbey and me, we went on a walk. We walked about 3 miles around their neighborhood (which is a really nice neighborhood). The weather was wonderful. This was probably the last nice day of 2014 here. Our walk wasn't just a casual walk, I almost had to jog, to keep up with Kim and Abbey. After we've got back, we made dinner, which was a delicious salad with an amazing corn chowder.
  After dinner, we went to the theatre! My birthday present from Rotary (other than the flowers, the cake, the wonderful surprise singing and the card, like I'm not spoiled already :D), was a ticket to a Broadway show, which came to Rochester: Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. The theatre was huge! We sat on the balcony with Abbey, Kim and Mike were on the ground floor.
  The show was amazing! The actors were singing and dancing nonstop, every situation was sung, and there were barely any dialogues. So it was really like a spectacle. The costumes were great, the whole sight gave a modernized feeling to the show. They certainly used a lot of effects like lights and projectors. The director rethought a lot of scenes and characters in a modern way (like the Pharaoh was an Elvis imitator), which I liked. Funny thing, the narrator girl and Joseph are in real life married, and they were both on American Idol, but they didn't meet there.
  I had a really fun time, I love the theatre, and watching a Broadway musical had always been on my bucket list.
  I got home at 10, and untill 12:30, I was shopping on a site my Mom sent me, that had a 50% clearence. I bought so many things, it's ridiculous!
