Two Local Plays Snare Library Book Lovers

Two local plays share with us, it's viewer, the love that we have of books and also, the love of libraries.  Babel at the Nimbus Theatre in NE Mpls (on Central) has an interesting play about architecture, knowledge and libraries!  It is a quaint, small theatre that even offers old wooden theatre seats.  This play ends March 25, 2012.  Tickets -- $10.  If you go, please post your thoughts on this production.  http://nimbustheatre.com/discover/production/babel  Underneath the Lintel is the other play that caught my eye at The Cabaret at Camp Bar in downtown St. Paul.  A reclusive librarian finds a book 123 years overdue and tells of his worldwide quest to track down the borrower.  http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/227208  This play is $14-$19. Thurs, March 29 - Sunday April 1 are performance dates.   If you order through Groupon March 19-21 (if still available) tickets are 2 tickets for $19.  For those of us that love reading "the word", it is fun to see "the word acted out."  Please share your thoughts.  If you chose to post Anonymously, would you please post your name.

  1. What interesting and reasonably priced plays these turned out to be! They were both thought provoking and Underneath the Lintel turned out to really be part of an "Easter Story!" A few of us book club ladies attended each, and I know they enjoyed these as much as I did!
