Erlanger

We performed in Erlanger, KY, for a small library crowd yesterday afternoon. Justin's brother, mother and uncle came to see the show, and we all got to meet them afterward. Though there were few spectators and even fewer questions, they all seemed impressed by our work and the story we told. (Sometimes, I guess that's all that matters.)

Tomorrow we perform at St. Boniface School in Cincinnati, a morning show. Then, the rest of the day is free, a more and more common phenomenon lately. We enjoy the large gaps in our touring schedule, for it allows us to do other things; at the same time, though, every day we don't perform is another day that we have not shared our story with anyone. This show is as touching as it is informative--and as the ancient Roman Horace put it, the purpose of art is "to edcuate and entertain." This show does both.

All this goes to say, I enjoy how much time off we've had lately, but I wish we could do more shows.
