Even with everything that's been going on with us (something we keep obliquely referring to but but giving no details), Adriana and Todd found time to go see THE WHITE CARD performed at one of Saint Paul's treasures, Penumbra Theatre. Needless to say, I was fantastic, and we have a lot to say about it. We had our conversation in another wonderful Saint Paul staple, Nina's. It was packed and loud, but we gave it a go. You can hear Adriana perfectly, but Todd is a little low in the mix, as they say. Don't worry, you can hear him here and there when he gets moderately excited. It's worth a listen -- and the production is definitely worth seeing. It ends on the 7th so don't what around!
