High School Musical on Stage |

|
A sleep-over? In an
RV? Yep.
And two plays in one day! Our
last night in St. Louis was fun-filled, thanks to a visit from our cousin
Savannah who lives 2 hours away. Her
family came to see Griffin’s performance of a tarantula in the wild, wild west
and we talked them into letting Savannah spend the night with us. The Missoula performance was at 1 in the
afternoon and later that evening we took her to see “High School Musical on
Stage” at the Municipal Theater in Forest Park .
True to St. Louis’s reputation for affordable fun, the show was
free. Every play at the Muny has 1500
free seats reserved at the back of the outdoor amphitheater. All you have to do is line up. The show started at 8:15 and the gates for
the free seats open at 7. We arrived at
5:30 and found about 200 people in line ahead of us, but keep in mind this was
supposed to be the most popular show of the season. The seats were far from the stage, but the
sound was good and we had a great view, especially with our binoculars. The kids had a blast – popcorn, sodas,
singing, dancing. I enjoyed the music
and Daddy, well, he brought his Ipod and listened to some podcast about geeks
and gadgets. A good time was had by all.
