My lovely wife and I had a late Valentine's date last night - we saw Martin Short's hilarious performance at the Keith Albee Performing Arts Center. You can see some photos from the event right here on the Herald-Dispatch Photo Gallery.
The show was a lot of fun. Martin was a bundle of energy, racing around the stage, recreating characters from TV and the movies, all while delivering a constant salvo of jokes and songs. And it was certainly great to see Ed Grimley again I must say. The show played to a packed house, and they enjoyed yet another terrific show courtesy of the Marshall Artists Series. Like I keep saying, Best Season Ever!
After the show we had an excellent dinner at Arthur's (which is just around the corner from the theatre), and from our window seat we saw Martin Short walk by not once, not twice, but three times (going back and forth from the theater to the hotel, I suppose). The last time around he stopped, looked in the window and waved to us as my wife held up a program. What a nice guy!
