Arriving about an hour early, none of us live in Downtown Sacramento and didn't know how long it would take to get there taking traffic into account, we decided to search for a place to have drinks and appetizers. As we walked from the parking garage we came across the Esquire Grill. Great place and they took excellent care of us knowing we were headed across the street for an 8pm show.
Here's a pic of all of us with our tasty adult beverages.Starting on the left is my granda Ellen (I call her Mummum), my Mom Monica, my sister-in-law Kirby, my future sister-in-law Morgan, me and my mother-in-law Char.
The bartender made me a tasty Midtown Manhattan, Morgan had something with pomegranate in it and my grandma and Mom (who swears up and down that she hates rum) had a Strawberry Daiquiri (ya - I don't get it either.)Here's another shot of Mom and Mummum.
And my Mom and Kirby.
Kirby and Morgan, who have known each other since at least high school, and have married or are marrying two best friends. Funny how life connects people... Can't you see that I'm going to have adorable nieces and nephews one day? Get on it you two! Ally needs a cousin!
Then Morgan, Me and Char. The Carroll side. :-)
I was a good girl and didn't take any pictures inside the theater.
Now for the review, eh. Maybe I have just seen some awesome musicals (Wicked, Jersey Boys, Chicago come to mind) and this one was just so-so. Maybe it was the fact that it was created from a movie and not vice versa. Some of the songs, supposed to be sung high and nasally like sorority girls, were difficult to understand because of these reasons.
So, cute premise, but nothing I'd run to see again. And regardless of the show, it was great company and a fun night.
