Catching Up: La Vie, Spiegelworld

Curie is asleep on my couch, taking a nap after having seen the law school. We're going to what is supposedly the best Indian restaurant in the area, tonight, in Branford (her and two other transfers who I should nickname and will explain later: Nichole and Ellen).

Since I've been catching up with Curie, today, I thought I should also catch up with some of the stuff I've done and photos I've taken.

The first thing I want to post are some images I took while at the South Street Seaport for the final performance of La Vie, by Spiegelworld.

The show was fantastic, and it was really nice getting to see a friend I met through Curie who (we joke) is my Chinese half-sister. She's really a sweet person, and some of her friends were great.

As I said, the show was fantastic. You can check out the website for an idea of what it's all about. I think the best parts were the dance scenes between the MC and a woman (who, in the show, is a Russian femme fatale). You know the man is probably gay, and that they are just performers in a cabaret under a circus tent in Manhattan and are not really tormented lovers, and yet when they danced it was so passionate and so believable. I think the entire audience was impressed with the others (contortionists, ropeworkers, etc.) but we were just blown away by the dancing. IT WAS HOT lol

Most of my photos are of the ships and the actual seaport itself. I really like the effect of the cell phone photos sometimes.
