3/9 Thursday.
Bag&Baggage's first performance of Tom Stoppard's
Rough Crossing at the classical
Venetian Theatre. Excellent acting and costume. Efficient stage set. They speak a bit too fast for me. The plot within the plot is too complicated. I like Wodehouse's adaptation
Play's the Thing better. Overall, entertaining. I'm sad to see that most of the theatre was empty. I hope their later performances will have better luck. I certainly will see their show again.

Venetian Theatre in downtown Hillsboro is very nice. Full of old world charm, comfortable modern seats. A restaurant attached. Quite convenient.
