I got to see "1776: The Musical" 1at the American Repertory Theater in Harvard Square this afternoon!  

It was a beastly hot day - in the 90s!  I
 dressed up in my gauzy floral summer dress and got a ride to Cambridge with Laurie M.  She arranged the entire outing and drove - a real treat for me who usually plans every step of most adventures. 
  
She got a handicap parking spot right in front of the theater!  We sat in the car chatting until it was time to go in. 

The theater opened at 1:30 pm and we strolled in
masked, with a vax card and photo id!

I went downstairs to the bathroom, then we waited for the house to open.  

I sat up in row I Seat 2 with Laurie's friend Bernie from Natick while she sat with Denis, her brother, down below. Excellent seats!  

2 pm "1776: The Musical" at the American Repertory Theater 

The show was delightful - diverse and talented cast of female-presenting actors including cis-women, non-binary and trans actors with beautiful voices.  They sped up the music but other than that stuck to the script and lyrics. It was a long show - lasted until 4:50 pm!  This show was one of my Dad's favorites - we saw the original production on Broadway and he wanted to watch the movie every July 4th!  My toughest task was not singing along!  
 
 
5 pm Dinner at Source restaurant on Church St
I tasted the
1)
 Za'cuterie platter - a charcuterie assortment of cheese, meats and condiments on a pizza shell, and
2)
 Spaghetti with brown butter hazelnut sauce, sweet sausage, spring peas, and asparagus

I was quite impressed with the creativity of the ingredients and presentation!

I posted photos to Facebook and Google Maps.  Pop over there to see!  

It was fun being back in Harvard Square for a few hours.  I popped into the Wholesome Fresh market on the corner for old times sake... didn't find anything to buy. 

Laurie drove me home and received massive thanks for such a delightful outing!
