Spiderman and Fiddler on the Roof

This week was a fast paced adventure from a family wedding in Wnnipeg to vacation in New York City to a weekend at home with my sister. In that time we saw Spirderman on Broadway and Fiddler on the Roof in Stratford.
Theatre is a spectacular moment where we have no clients, no staff issues, no housework, no dinner to make.
Spiderman focused on unbelivable gymnastics, trapeeze artists and staging. A little lean on the script -- but an innovative merging of the comic book and the stage. And why would I expect a stunning script from an ode to Marvel?
Fiddler on the Roof was a delightful immersion into the simple life of a family living in the wrong moment of history. Suffering from intense cultural stigma, the family and their neigbours paid the price of ignorance, their home swept from them. The gentle humour, poignant love and struggle to change was a lovely reminder of our past... and our future.
