[Seth-Trips] "I Look Like an Egg" again and cheaper [Neal@alumnae.mills.edu: "cookie" opens jan 2nd]

Fri Dec 31 21:59:27 PST 2004

One might stress that the cheap seats are only available for the January 2 
preview night.  Also, the show is substantially iterated since the 
previous run.

I'm doing lights and sound and assorted other stuff for the show and 
recommend it.  Also, the restaurant in the hotel (the venue) makes really 
tasty food.
