Macbeth
On Thursday night I went with a friend to see Macbeth. This wasn't an ordinary version of Macbeth. It was at the National Museum of the American Indian, and the play was performed in the Thlinket (pronounced Klinket) language, with English subtitles projected above the stage. There was still a bit of English--during Macbeth's & Lady Macbeth's soliloquys. My friend and I saw another of our coworkers, an architect, there as well. Of all the random places to run into someone you know! It was a very good, very enjoyable production after an always enjoyable, always expensive meal in the museum cafeteria. I had a pulled buffalo sandwich and 2-glass bottle of wine for only $28. It's random opportunities like this one that make me enjoy living here! Plus it gave me something to talk about in French class the next day. Our instructor always starts by having us tell him and the others what's new. Sometimes our discussions turn political, such as on Wednesday when we discovered that our class contains a member of PETA and an avid hunter! A frustratingly slow argument in broken French ensued!
