This is the last week to see Life X 3. Only three performances left before we wave goodbye to this strange ride.
The weather has not been kind, which has led to sporadic attendance. But the cast has been a strong bunch - able to stay professional despite the myriad of distractions that comes with a new space. They've all done fine work on this Chicago premiere.
All in all, the run has proved fruitful from an artistic side. The play reveals new insights every time they run it. And, of course, the cast keeps it lively with slight variations every night.
The audience has been interesting. Some are quiet, some are loud, and some are completely amused by what's happening on stage. This play has that overall effect on those who see it. I compare it to Groundhog Day meets Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf. A heady mix that is like taking a ride on a roller coaster. Good times. Good times.
At this point, attendance is slim for this weekend, but I'm hopeful it will pick up. Final weekends tend to bring out the late rush of people who've been too busy to see past performances. Hopefully that is the case and maybe the weather will stay quiet.
