Thanks for posting this. This reminds me of how much I miss going to the live theater. I saw Phillip Glass many years ago. I just have to make it happen, and take a chance that the performance will be appealing.
I’m too cheap to buy a ticket and I don’t like driving to San Francisco at all, especially not at night.

Maybe next year, I’ll just do it, or take an Uber.
The quality of a live performance is often impossible to fully communicate by recordings, the size of that place, for one. You have to be there to feel the vibrations all around you.

I grew up in New York and my parents took me to Broadway. I developed a great love of live theater. nothing like it.

Live theater peaked for me with The Persecution and Assassination of Jean-Paul Marat as Performed by the Inmates of the Asylum of Charenton Under the Direction of the Marquis de Sade.

That’s really the title. It got made into a movie, but the experience of being in the audience during a live performance was unique.
