A little bit of Shakespeare
Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008 | Entertainment, Food
Tuesday was a day of adventure and intrigue. The day entailed a nice interview surprise. This had to be one of the most relaxed, easy and just plain wonderful interviews of the interviewing stint I’ve experienced. The job sounds fantastic as does the firm. I would love to be considered for this opportunity, however, as with all the interviews my expectations are not exceedingly optimistic. I simply have my fingers crossed.
The real excitement of the day was first the happy hour with Miranda at Oba (they have excellent happy hours, as you get a discount on both drinks & food. I had coconut prawns and ceasar salad accompanied first by the House red wine (which isn’t anything to write home about, so I settled for a cabernet as my second drink of choice and it was a good choice at that). Miranda had the Ceasar and then the chicken tacos which she said was really good.
Followed was an adventure into the 16th Century. An enchanting evening filled with mistaken identity, love, double-entendre’s and perplexity around sexual identity. The garb was true Shakespearean (not totally true as there were no cod pieces). The lines were delivered with intention and the minstrel kept the air full of romantic mystery and magic.
Twelfth Night is a Portland Center Stage must see, as is their Web 2.0 website. I love that you can add comments and opinions to their discussion feeds. It’s really a great way to connect with the audience and enable the audience to connect with the productions.
I definitely recommend Twelfth Night.
