Haiku #119 - Usnavi Cake

Usanvi cake with one of our lovely hosts Lexington Opera House

Look, it's Usnavi
standing on a city cake.
He found his island.


The woman who makes the cakes for the shows that come through Lexington makes each one specially-themed to suit the show - hence Usnavi standing on top of a cityscape for our show.  


Would like to write more about the lovely time we had in Lexington and the yummy meal they served us between shows, but I'm exhausted and we have an early bus call tomorrow.  Hope to see you again soon, Lexington!

Haiku #118 - Lexington, KY

surrounded by blue
an ocean of avid fans

dressed for college hoops

This was the scene in the hotel lobby this morning - fans of University of Kentucky, who were playing University of Alabama at the nearby Rupp Arena.  The director of the Lexington Opera House announced the Wildcats' win in her curtain speech for the benefit of those who had made the dubious decision to come see a show instead of going to the game.
