It’s been awhile since I’ve blogged but I’m starting back up
again. This is primarily because I’m
going on an awesome, globe-trotting vacation and partially work-related trip
over the next three and a half months and I want to document it. It starts today, and details will follow in a
subsequent post, but in the spirit of documentation, I wanted to first return
to my yearly feature on the shows and musicals I’ve seen. This is for 2011 and is about 8 months late,
so it will be a bit bare bones… a short list of all the shows I saw in 2011
(there were 69 of them) and the films I saw in 2011 (there were 6 of them) in
the order that I liked them. If a show
was seen more than once during the year the total number of viewings is
indicated in parenthesis.
