i went to see a great off-broadway play today. victoria martin: math team queen follows a popular girl who joins the math team to avoid getting detention. of course, she has an untapped gift for math, and she quickly learns that there's more to geeks than just retainers and klingon... though barely. it's a cute, funny show, with really great performances. the actors portray high school teens in a realistic way - a combination of angst, humor, and resilience. i also loved that they dropped stuff from the ceiling - it is my way favorite thing for plays/musicals. it never ceases to instill a sense of childlike wonderment that i could reach out and actually touch little pieces of the show!
and no, i wasn't on the math team... that would be science olympiad instead, thank you very much.
