An Evening of Chess


I pass an Odeon theatre a couple blocks from my work everyday. I noticed that they were having a "simulcast" of a prerecording of the 25th anniversary stage presentation of the musical Chess, which was performed about 6 months earlier. . . It was starting Josh Groban, Idina Menzel, and Adam Pascal - quite an all-star cast. It was only £12, so I bought a ticket.

When I showed up, it turned out to be a reunion for a lot of the cast and crew. The director Hugh Wooldruge was there as well as the famous broadway writer, Tim Rice. I had no idea! It was a terrific evening.
