Words fail me when I try to express just how totally kickass BOOZY was tonight. They really do.

It was not that it was inventive, exciting and engaging (and it was)--it was the ideas, the sheer wonder of seeing living ideas fighting one another onstage before everyone, and these ideas really being given space to spar and draw blood, without an assumed victor. It's rare in the theater for a new show to have even one idea...and too often, when there are two ideas they complement each other, or one is a straw man for the other to beat down.

BOOZY is different. Real. And my oh my...it's so much fun. Urban planning as Masonic gestalt, with all the pageantry and ridiculousness it requires. I am so, so delighted to be working with these folks.
