Young Frankenstein
What has Sutton Foster, Roger Bart, Megan Mullally and Christopher Fitzgerald in it, and will be in Seattle for its pre-broadway preview? Three guesses! Anyone?
I would so like to be able to go! However, the only days it would be available are August 22 – 24. I don’t get back from Ohio until August 23, which isn’t as big a problem as the cost. Since I don’t live in Seattle, and I wouldn’t realistically want to drive on my own, it would cost approximately $1200 for me to go. It includes lots of neat features, including a trip up to the Space Needle (I’ve never been), and tickets to several other events besides the show itself. I would just love to be able to see the world premier of this show, and possibly be able to even meet people like Sutton Foster, Roger Bart and Megan Mullally. People whose voices and parts I listen to over and over again… I would love to be able to go.
However. I have to keep my eyes on the prize, as the saying goes. I am saving for a move to Ohio, and dropping $1200 on a trip to Seattle would be highly irresponsible. It just would be such an exceptional opportunity! This is one of those moments where I could just casually ignore what’s responsible and make plans accordingly. I know better, though. $1000 will get me to Ohio. I definitely, definitely cannot justify spending that money on a trip to a city that I hated anyway the last time I was there. (It was worth it to see Norbert Leo Butz on stage, though. It was.)
If only money grew on trees.
