On our sojourn into the heart of Red State America last week included attending a performance of "The Day Boy and the Night Girl" a musical based on a story I'd never heard of by George MacDonald, a Scottish writer from the nineteenth century who I am mostly unfamiliar with. (He wrote "The Princess and the Goblin", which I know I read as a child. I seem to recall that I didn't like it.) It appears that the adaptation was pretty faithful, and I suppose there were things to admire about the production, but when it was over EGA summed it up nicely. "Well, that was theater-y," she said, and it certainly was.
