Outside Event # 4

I went to see Souvenir last night at Theatre Memphis off Southern. This play was very interesting. It was about a woman named Florence Foster Jenkins that was determined to sing even though she couldn't. A man named Cosme McMoon accompanied her when she would sing. He needed the money, and was actually kind of inspired that she had the heart to continue singing. Her saying was, "They may say I can't sing, but they'll never say I didn't." It was and inspiring story. It tells you to stick with what your heart is telling you to do, even when people are making fun of you. It was really cool to see literature in action, and see this play acted out. It was cool to see the way they had the room set up and how everyone reacted to the storyline. Each character did really good at their roles and they kept me interested. This helps me realize that when you love something you should stick with it, no matter what.
