After less than 2 hours sleep we stumbled out of bed and threw some clothes on. This was our second and LAST time queuing for tickets to see 'once' on broadway. We weren't taking any chances in missing out on tickets.
We were both feeling incredibly tender and looked like we hadn't slept in weeks. Regardless we went to broadway and sat for just over 2 hours painfully waiting for the box office to open at 10am. The queue was fairly big when we joined it but we were still way head of where we stood last time.
By the time we got to the box office the only tickets we could afford we're for the matinee so we took them regardless of their hefty price tag - still a good $80 less than advertised.
We soon realised that we didn't have that long to eat, wake up, make ourselves look presentable and get back to the theatre! #panic
We hopped on the next train back to queens and went for breakfast at the cute place we found the first day we got here. Their breakfast was just what we needed and after showering and throwing on some makeup we looked a far cry from the tramps we resembled this morning.
The heavens opened just as we left so the queue to get in to the theatre involved some serious umbrella ducking and diving - the queue completely blocked the sidewalk so passers by were bashing into us with their umbrellas every two seconds which we did not appreciate.
The show was beautiful. From the moment we sat down there were members of the cast playing live folk music on stage with members of the audience. The audience then went to their seats and the show began with a song called 'Leave' performed by a man I could only describe as being a gift from the gods. Meow!
The plot was beautiful and was based around a growing friendship between a struggling Irish musician and a Czech immigrant. It was funny, romantic, moving and just... Amazing!! Well worth queuing for, in fact we're sat in central park listening to the soundtrack as I write this !
When we got back from the matinee we were shattered so went to bed at half 6... Awkward.
I have only just realised what you're taking about! Amy did you not watch the film with me and Mum, it was her absolute fave and the music is unbelievably beautiful! Xx
