Tonight I saw CalShakes production of George Bernard Shaw’s Pygmalion, the play behind the musical My Fair Lady. It was a very well done play. It was very funny, but the social commentary was also very poignant. The acting was great, particularly the characters of Eliza Doolittle and her father, but maybe they just stood out because they were the funniest and craftiest parts.
The Winters’ couldn’t make it, and I didn’t find takers for the other tickets, so I was on my own again. The 3 tickets I donated back were filled by 3 ladies, so I wasn’t alone in my row. It was a cool night, and the fog blew by the top of the theater for a lot of the evening. I was a very enjoyable evening, with another great Shaw play directed by Johatan Moscone. For the first time I recall, he did the introduction at the beginning which was a bit fun. Another Shakespeare play in 2 days :) .
