At the Warner Theatre

As much as I enjoyed all of my free time in DC, I have to say that I have had the least fun playing the show in DC. We had our smallest audiences in what has been our smallest theatre to date. In fact it was here in Washington DC that Dorothy's Condo made its debut. (In other words a smaller version of her house) Sadly we were playing to half full houses for most of the week. It didn't help that there were a bunch of musicals either already playing in DC or about to start performing. (In fact we were staying in the same hotel with some of the West Side Story actors.) The theatre is beautiful though, and if it was located in Manhattan it would be considered a large theatre. Sadly for a touring production designed to fit into large touring houses it is too small. We could not do some of the flying including the balloon at the end of the show. Also the munchkins were the least prepared of all the cities we visited so far. And worst of all since the theatre was so small there was no good place to warm up before the show so I felt like my playing was also a bit lacking. So all in all not the best engagement we have played so far. But the theatre is beautiful, and here are a few pictures:
