We have joined a new club?, group?, thing? called Theater Mania Gold which allows us to get tickets on short notice to a number of events for the truly low price of $4.50 a ticket.  Friday we noticed that the Saturday, 2 PM matinée of Swan Lake by the Australian Ballet was on the site. It was playing at Lincoln Center. I haven’t seen a ballet since high school and Katherine hasn’t seen one for 15 years so we said “what the heck.” We were in the 2nd Ring, 3rd Row, Center. Great seats. I enjoyed myself but still not a ballet fan… Black Swan was more fun…

I really like the Lincoln Center campus so I arrived an hour early to shoot and discovered that the craft festival was in session. Twofer! Fine people watching everywhere I turned.
