Buckets and Tap Shoes is mesmerizing. We saw Buckets and Shoes way back in 2004. A joyful, kinetic explosion of sound, the show is better than ever, and and it's this year's best bet for the whole family. It's also a great opportunity to take your kids to see guys dance.
Thursday night we zipped across town to see You Only Live Forever Once at 8:30 at the Bryant Lake Bowl. After one detour, four spins around the block to find parking, and 20 minutes waiting in line, the show was sold out. Lesson learned, we decided to stay put.
We are gearing up for the Fringe. We are stocked up on sandwich supplies so we can get out of the house for 5:30 shows. I have a pocketful of coins for meters in case we don't snag on-street parking and some singles for the pesky parking ticket machine at Mixed Blood.
Once again my 12 year old son Tommy is blogging his Top 10 list. Tommy "only" saw 15 shows this year because we had family commitments. This is his 10th year of fringing (although he doesn't remember much from the year 2000).
Hello! This is Tommy writing, and I'm about to give you my 2010 Fringe Top Ten! Here it is!
