I have a long-established tradition at my dental office of celebrating the holidays by treating my staff to dinner and a show. This past Friday, 11 of us dined at Sardi’s and then went on to see the musical revival of Hair on Broadway. The meal was fantastic and the show really rocked. We had a blast!
But what made the evening truly extraordinary was that we all were dressed-up in “1960’s” garb. I have to say that this year I really went whole-hog. I spent three nights preparing my outfit. I felt like I was back in sleep-away camp tie-dyeing T-shirts, bleaching out my jeans and applying all kinds of appliqués to my “ensemble.” Any hesitancy I had about donning a wig and bandana went out the window when I experienced others’ hysterical reaction to my hippie regalia.
Eyes were locked upon me in the subway, at the restaurant and in the theatre. I have to admit, I expected many others attending the show to be dressed-up, too, the way Rocky Horror Picture Show fans do. So you can imagine our surprise when it turned out that we were the only ones in costume!
Everyone who saw my outlandishly attired group either smiled or gawked and some even asked to have their picture taken with us. I’m sure they thought we were part of the show!
Actually, we really did feel like we were part of the show: we sat in the front row and cast members sat on my lap, played with my wig and “made-out” with my staff. During the grand finale, we all went on the stage and danced.
One of the things that is so great about you is your passion for whatever you involve yourself in. And, also, how did you get first-row tickets to Hair??
To me the Xmas party was the most fantastic event since I came in US, two years ago.Thanks to Dr. Sinkin for adopting me in his cool and beautiful family. I look forward for the next farout party. Who can guess what’s going to be? Join us and you’ll find out!!
