Tarzan for less
On Friday, Joanne’s manager at work was trying to get tickets to see Tarzan for Saturday night. As she was checking out, she noticed that the total was $10.25 per ticket, including a $1.25 facility fee and $9 ticketmaster service fee, making the tickets “free”. She figured it was a computer glitch, but just in case, Joanne got us a couple of tickets too. We showed up expecting them to turn us away at the door, but they let us in and we saw the whole show. Did I mention that the seats were in the first row?
The show itself was alright. There was some cool swinging around on “vines”, which mean an awful lot of winching and clipping and unclipping of carabiners. There were some incredible flower costumes that looked like something out of little shop of horrors. The acting was decent, the singing was good, but the music itself left something to be desired. The lyrics included such gems as “Oh, the power to be strong / And the wisdom to be wise”.
Not too bad considering we would have had to pay more to see the movie in a theater.
