Last week, I visited the new show devoted to famed photographer Weegee at the Indianapolis Museum of Art and caught the national tour of "A Chorus Line" at Clowes Hall. Thoughts on both can be found here.
What about you? Did you give a listen to cutting edge performers at the Intermedia Festival at the Central Library? Attend the Christamore House Book & Author Luncheon? Get tired of waiting for summer films and see one of the Spring offerings at your nearest multiplex?
Your thoughts?

Over the years, I've seen the show several times and have enjoyed revisiting old friends. However, this cast really didn't seem to make the characters come alive. In particular, Nick Venditti's portrayal of Paul was forced and lifeless. The tears, the fall, were all phony and unbelievable. Comparatively, Daniel Cruz's performance of Paul in Seattle 5th Avenue Theatre's production brought tears to our eyes and my mom found herself worrying about Paul/Daniel on the way home as if he the character was real.
My advice to the performers of this tour is to take some advice from Mr. Carp and try to FEEL it.
