Sonia (flatmate) and I went to see Moscow City Ballet perform Cinderella on Wednesday night. There was an ad for it in the school newspaper that came out on Monday, and if you took the ad into the Norwich Theatre Royal box office right before Wednesday's show, they would give you up to two premium, normally-38-pound tickets for 10 pounds apiece. That's about a $60 ticket for $16! The leads were good, the male corps needed work on their turns, and the costumes were fabulous. I learned that the big thing to do when going to the theatre in the UK is to get ice cream at intermission. Who knew?
Also, courgette = zucchini. Rob (flatmate) thinks that zucchini is the funniest word he's ever heard.
On Thursday, the flat went out to the Reel Big Fish concert on campus. It's a ska band, and it was really fun to listen to.
