My Aunt the Carnivorous Moose

Holding the Reins of the Runaway Extrovert 2013: Day 44 - Run ... to the theatre!

Off to see a play at New Theatre that Fahmi said started at 8.

Trains went to crap but I finally made it by 7.15 to his place then we dashed to Pastizzi Cafe for dinner, which is across the road from the theatre and noticed the footpath outside the theatre empty at 7.40.

Uh-oh!

So Fahmi rushed across the road, got inside just before doors slammed shut, grabbed the tickets and I gobbled down the last of my YUMMY octopus salad and raced across to join him.

Turns out MilkMilkLemonade, which was outrageously funny with giant talking kittens, a gay 12 year old farmhand and hilarious song and dance sessions - LOVED IT!! - started at 7.30.

But we got inside in time, enjoyed a clever witty marvellous play and were on our way, via the Union Hotel for a drink (it was trivia night) by 9.15.

Swimming Pretty in the Glass-Half-Full 2012: Day 202 - Kulcha with a "K"

To the New Theatre in Newtown to see Entertaining Mr Sloane, a black comedy by Joe Orton with Waz, Peter, Fahmi and Ian (my lvoe was sick and couldn't come). Hilarious (see my review here).

Then dinner at Matee.

Swimming Pretty in the Glass-Half-Full 2012: Day 56 -

Got some kulcha tonight!

That was after dinner at Botany View of course with my gorgeous guy, Steve M, Fahmi, Ian and Peter - food delicious as always and I am loving pear cider. Loving it!

Off down King Street a small way to see The Temperamentals, at New Theatre, a play about the formation of the Mattacines in 1950s USA about a group of men who tried to fight for gay rights over a decade before the Stonewall Riots, which is seen as the start of the gay rights movement. Great dialogue and well acted...

... and followed up by crepes a little further down King Street. The crepes were only so-so, but it was a fabulous way to end the night.
