I haven’t been to the Fringe much. It used to be my favourite festival of the entire year. But I missed a few years due to being out of town, then unemployed, and then I just got out of the habit.
I have lists of plays I would like to go see. But I just can’t motivate myself to get out. I could use the excuse that I’m busy. What I seem to be busy with is that I’m trying to get my ankle feeling better before my race in September. And I have a barbecue party on Saturday. But I think I know the real reason.
I don’t have the energy to deal with the lines.
The plays I want to see are all by well known local playwrights. Any Edmontonian who enjoys plays will know about them. So they will be crowded. If I could just roll out of my place and go see a play, I probably would.
And I would like to go see a good Stewart Lemoine or David Belke.
