Here’s a lovely review by Harper Yi of the Off-Broadway production of Around the World in 80 Days.

“But on top of all this ingenuity and artistic splendor, the show is funny– genuinely, side-splittingly, joyously funny. The script itself is fast-paced, quick, and witty with some very sharp jokes that will tickle you with the precision of wit and other, very intentionally blunt jokes, that will hit you more like a baseball bat in the gut, except instead of the wind (and probably a few tears) being knocked out of you, you’ll instead burst with laughter like a piñata.”

I have to say, Harper has good taste. And she ended up seeing the show about 25 times. Ok, I may be exaggerating, but she did see it a bunch of times. I think more people should take her lead and see the show several times. The show should give out frequent flyer cards. See the show ten times and get a free shirt. Or a free vasectomy. A free something.

Harper, who attends the school I wish I had attended – William and Mary College – also has a fantastic website: Harper Honey.

Thanks for the great review, Harper.

And go Fighting Indians, Tribe, Griffins!
