The world would be better of if we could all get a glimpse if each other’s life. Most of the times, we tend to see on only version of what is going on and don’t think about other people’s point of view.

Interesting photo. It sounds like an interesting story, too. I appreciate how art can teach us about other cultures, religions, and lifestyles.

The theater is a great way to experience other cultures. There’s more impact that reading about them, although that certainly has its place, too!

Very interesting photo. Sounds like the falcon serves a role similar to the ghosts in Dickens’ A Christmas Carol.

Barb its a brand new musical and has only been shown in two locations in Southern and Norther California. I believe it will be coming to DC sometime in the next few months. I get the feeling that as they go on the road, these young actors lives are going to change “dramatically” :)

NS GIll the falcons flight also reminded me somewhat of Scrooge’s journeys although there are major differences and in the book there are only two.

Very cool! I would love to know when it comes to DC – I have a crazy schedule but if I’m free, I would be very interested in seeing this show.
