Sunday noon wasted....

It's a Sunday noon and all i want to do is break free and relax ..
but then yes ,we have plans to see a play which we guess is all about Samrat Ashok. so i pushed myself to getting ready on time knowing that my hubby will go mad with me running late as he is one perfect punctual man in everything.As usual the lazy me was doing some last minute work at my own pace , getting some good stares from him on delaying him like it has always been...

We left home at 4.10pm for a show that was to begin at 430pm
Reaching the venue just on time and doing all the catching up
with his buddies ,we went n to the hall ...though a little
stunned with a few heads visible .Me is getting in to a strong
analysis as to why there is less crowd..Is it because of a wrong timing
for the play ? 430 on a Sunday afternoon in this hot summer .
I am not starring or sponsoring the programme ..let me turn off my thinking box :-)

Its been a while , almost 5pm and we were hoping they start the play ..
there comes the apology announcement, that they are sorry for the delay and they would start the play in sometime ..

My husband sighed at me as if he realised it was not worth going mad with his wife for delaying the departure to actually end up waiting in this hall !!!
well..that is my hope that you realised it dear...!!

Finally it began and i could not help but laugh along with my husband
for his wits and comments .The play enactment by most of them on stage left us in splits -We come here looking for the Samrat Ashok which was an EPIC but all we could see was very bad acting & pathetic delivery of dialogues and some pretty young girls dancing ....

Well i understand it was a dance drama play ..but can someone tell me
if they had those kind of hip hop shakes in ASHOKA'S times !!
Blame it on the choreographer ?? Play Director?

It was only half an hour since the play started and we made a silent walk out
I guess that was much better than laughing at the guys of Samrat Ashok !!!
