The Theater

I attended a performance of High School Musical at the Dallas Summer Theater. It was an energetic if somewhat chaotic performance. There were lots of young girls in the audience who were very attentive to the entire show. More interesting was the production going on in the ladies room. Four rest room attendants ran the coming and going like the director of a Broadway show—Arms motioning, voices commanding, “This way, ladies, two openings this way.” I felt as though I was in a commercial for Visa Check card. You know the one, where motion is fast, furious and controlled until someone tries to pay with cash or a check and everything stops. I will say they kept things moving, like a finely oiled machine—in and out in no time. I think they need these ladies at the ball park, Texas Stadium and the AA Center.
