Kudos for the invention of such an interesting blog. What a really great idea, wish I had thought of it, and I hope you are receiving plenty of tickets to shows. I too am a fan of Chicago’s theater, and I have really grown to appreciate it since I moved to Montana three years ago. My family still lives in Chicago, and while looking for a particular “That’s My Mug” coffee shop to visit on my trip home I came across your mug imposed Reese WItherspoon birthday cake. (Hilarious)
Anyway I am not a blog reader, this is actually my first blog comment ever. I thought I would give you a bit of advice. You may already be aware of this option being the theater buff that you are, but my mother is a ASL (American Sign Language) interpreter, and she interprets for Broadway productions in Chicago, and when they don’t give her free tickets she buys my sisters and I ‘obstructed view’ seats. (Interpreter’s salaries aren’t too lofty) Anyways, I know that shows are pricey, but I have never had a bad experience in an obstructed view seat. The tickets are about half the price, and if you haven’t tried an obstructed view seat option it might be worth a try. Just a thought. I hope all goes well on this endeavor. I also hope this is an appropriate ‘blog comment’.

Also, a few weeks back a group of Chicago theater bloggers got together for a “Blogger Brunch” and we’d love to have you join us for our next one (perhaps in January?).

Cheers,

And thanks for clearing up the rumor. It’s one of those rumors that everyone hears and just shakes their head.

(And then a-holes like me perpetuate them…)

Anyway, I’ll be sure to check out Dalmatians when it stops in Chicago.

Regards,
