Fringe Kickoff tomorrow!

We're starting slow tomorrow with a single show in Southeast/Northeast Mpls. That will most likely be Flawed Genius at 8pm.

However, if we get started later than expected for the pre-theatre art event, our fallback for the evening is
Robert Anton Wilson's Masks of the Illuminati at 10.

Friday we start to hit our stride with 3 shows in the Uptown area. We'll be biking to those. Here's the Friday plan:

8:00 PM
The Book of Pops
Presented by Theater Zero at Bryant-Lake Bowl

10:00 PM
The Cody Rivers Show: Flammable People
Presented by The Cody Rivers Show at Minneapolis Theatre Garage

11:30 PM
An Intimate Evening with Fotis; The Taller Side of Ferrari McSpeedy
Presented by The Importance of Being Fotis at Minneapolis Theatre Garage

We're fine

In case you somehow missed the news flash, a bridge collapsed. Nobody in my family was anywhere near it.

I can't quite wrap my mind around it. How does a massive bridge that has stood there without incident for 40 years just... fall down? We don't have earthquakes here. No barges ran into it. No tornadoes. It wasn't even windy. The "bridge work" that was going on was just resurfacing, nothing to do with the structure of the bridge iteself. There's no indication of bombs or any other sabotage. I'd actually feel better if there was. It's better than realizing that bridges can just fall down spontaneously for no reason at all.
