Optimally different!

Apparently there's a Rally to Restore Sanity "sister picnic" on Boston Common. If I am concious and functional at noon tomorrow, which after the week I've had I'm not willing to commit to right now, I shall be rightly colored intrigued. Anyone else going? There are 465 listed as "Attending" on the FB event page!



(In other news, thanks to everyone who has come out to BB1946 so far! Just two more shows!)

Some of y'all may remember an outing I arranged to go see an "adaptation" of G&S' The Pirates of Penzance last year. Said y'all may further remember that it was awesome.

This appears to have become a trend. Hot Mikado is, according to one review, "all out fun with Gilbert and Sullivan. This clever adaptation adds swing dance and sizzling jazz to a beautiful tale about duty and love". Note that this is by a completely different group, as far as I know, from the one that did Pirates, and that Tix are expensive ($40-$59, but with student discounts and a $13 student rush), but I am curious nonetheless.

Anyone want on the list for organizing an outing? It runs May 2-22.

Edit If anyone is just finding this, I've created a doodle thingy here.

If anyone is still interested in Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee, the weekend long Victorian history/fiction mashup larp running this weekend at RPI, they still need players! Reply if you're interested and I'll get you in touch with the people running it.

...also, @theandyhicks on Twitter linked to a review of what looks like a nifty exhibit on computing history at the Museum Of Science. Having only recently said to a housemate something along the lines of "it's sad that the MoS is having to put on Harry Potter exhibits that don't even pretend to have anything to do with science just to get people to show up nowadays, but thent I haven't been inclined to go there myself so I'm part of that problem", I believe I would like to organize an outing there.

Would anyone else be up for this? Maybe on a weeknight, since I expect it wouldn't involve staying out super-late and my weekends are pretty booked?
