"She was so blonde...
She told me to meet her at the corner of 'walk' and 'don't walk'. "
To steal a phrase from AnnArbor.com's Jenn McKee, Performance Network is going "Blonde" (and Brunette and Red) for the fall. And, if I do say so myself, it looks damn good.
As I write this entry, we are literally minutes away from the first performance of The Blonde, the Brunette and the Vengeful Redhead, which is opening our 10th season in our downtown Ann Arbor home. How cool is that? The feeling of excitement and anticipation is thick in the air -- Russ, the seasoned apprentice, is training Maria, the new apprentice on house management; volunteers are selling chocolate cigars at the concession stand (for the "birth" of our new season); we're completely sold out, wall to wall; and patrons are buzzing about checking out our newly unveiled lobby renovation (which, by the way, is all decked out in reds, golds and rich browns, even though we didn't intend to match the lobby to our current show). Heck, Artistic Director David Wolber even just received a personal email from Robert Hewett, the writer of The Blonde, the Brunette and the Vengeful Redhead, wishing everyone involved good luck (or, as we say in the biz, "break a leg").
So if YOU want to be part of the excitement, why not come check out the show? We're finally going to answer the age old question: Do blondes have more fun?
