My husband and I just returned from a very exciting trip from New York City. We used to go there once every two years, but it's been about five years since we were last there. We ate at Sardi's as usual, I picked up some dresses at Bloomingdale's, and we saw a few shows.

I've been very lucky to see several shows in my travels, but I saw one on this last trip that REALLY took me back. A lady never reveals her age, but let's just say that I graduated high school in the early sixties. The show I saw is called The Marvelous Wonderettesand it takes place at prom in 58 and uses all of the music of that time to tell the story of four best friends.

It had all of the classic songs from my "younger" days like "Sandman" and "Lollipop" and "It's in His Kiss." What a blast from the past! Hahaha. And the singers are really great too.

My son found me this discount on the internet. I thought I would share it with all you "boomers."
