Bugs

Ok, so Friday night, Kyle and I went up to Coastal Carolina University to see a play. He's taking this theater class and he is required to have so many hours at the shows, so I've been going with him every once in a while. This particular play, Bugs, was supposed to be a little weird, but I figured that it would be an adventure if nothing else. Unfortunately, the word "adventure" can't accurately describe our little experience. It was more of an "episode."

So Kyle and I walk into the Blackbox Theater (a small, completely black room with a platform that has three rows of seats and a stage that's way too close for comfort). At my suggestion, we sat as far away from the stage as we possibly could (which was still all too close in my opinion). Kyle looked around and said, "Wow, Jessica...this is looking a little sketchy." The set was a dumpy, run down and falling apart motel room, and there was really random music playing in the background. Well, Kyle opens up the program and says "Uh-oh...." In big, bold letters at the bottom of the page it said:

*CAUTION*
Adult content, Smoking, Nutdity, Language, Violence, Simulated drug and alchohol abuse, Intense Lighting Effects, biting, kicking, screaming, and a whole lotta "God Bless the USA."

WHOA!! I had heard that this play was a little out there, but I did not know what I was getting myself in to. Needless to say, the whole story was completley messed up and twisted....definately something to put on another blog entry when I'm not as scarred as I am now. All I can say, is Thank God we were sitting in the back row!!
