Last weekend I flew down to Philly to visit Abhrajeet. It was quite an intense 2 1/2 day visit filled with celebrating my birthday, attending date night, seeing two mask and wig shows and being together for valentine's day. (All of which haven't happened in the three years since we've been at college)
I was the most excited for date night. Each spring Mask and Wig hosts a night where each guy asks someone to accompany them to dinner, the show and to hang out in the clubhouse after. This year was my first date night and it couldn't have been better. - a huge thanks to Lee for scheduling date night around me.
Mask and Wig owns a building they use for spring shows that has a lot of history. It hasn't been used in two years because of repairs, a fire and unreliable contractors. This year, however, everything was complete and ready to be used. The Clubhouse looks fantastic. After members graduate and get into the grad club their character is painted on the wall with a peg to hold their stein. A grad can use their stein when they visit the club house. Once a grad member passes away their mug is chained to the wall. Such neat history and traditions.
As for the show... it was nothing short of amazing. The guys write the show during summer, the band plays all the music, the crew makes the entire set and the business staff takes care of ... well, business.
