Well not really. But kind of. Two of my faves will be in Chicago next weekend. Mike Daisey will be doing a three-day stint at the MCA with "If You See Something Say Something" which I am trying to get Sam and his parents to go see with me. His parents I think will like it much more than he will, but I think I may go no matter what. I really shouldn't spend money on this this month, especially since Renee owes me $200, but this is not something I get the opportunity to do often. Even better, he is teaching an extemporaneous performance class, and I want! I am going to sign up for it and work on mining the Kinion family memories vault to bring those to fruition. There is also a roundtable discussion with lots of the regional theatre bigwigs here in Chicago reacting to his other performance piece "How Theatre Failed America" but I really hope it isn't just whining. On the Monday after this all happens, Tim Miller is back in town with his partner and they are both doing pieces. It would be great to go see him again, but there is only so much money I shouldn't spend that I am can even pretend to afford to spend in one weekend, and I have seen Tim Miller perform whereas I have not seen Mike Daisey.
