Sophisticated Ladies

We saw Sophisticated Ladies tonight at the South Bay Civic Light Opera. The 8 year old in attendance was a bit tired and put out by all the singing. At the end of the evening, he didn't want to admit that any of it was fun, thought we exchanged several grins during hot tap numbers and during a nice scat+sax number. Unfortunately I thought I'd ordered the matinee, but ended up with the night time tickets, so he was a bit tired. As a benchmark, he loved the musical numbers in Chicago, which I shared with him the other day (skipping the sordid plot details). The adult in attendance enjoyed all of it. The LA Times did too.
