Because there's no other time of year in which I spend so much time thinking about summer

There's one week left of the production of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" that Lorinne is in. This version sets the play at Athens High, so the play-within-a-play is performed as if by the student drama club (of which Lorinne plays the director). I thought it would be amusing to have the fairies be represented by stoners hanging around outside the school grounds, but no, they're really fairies. It's kind of like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, where the high school is right next to the Hellmouth, except in this case the school is right next to the Fairymouth. Anyway, I went to see the show last week and can honestly say it's a really fucking funny rendition of the play, with lots of standout performances. I'm going again on Friday with Rose, if any of you would like to do what the cool kids are doing. Info and link to buy tickets online here.
