Oh Cisco ...

The wife of my old mining partner thought it would be great fun to go do a dinner theater, but there were no openings for the current show, but they did have some afternoon tables available, so we went to go see The Cisco Kid.

I really was not interested.  I like theater but I am a little jaded due to all of the operas and live theater I did in my youth.  But, hey, they wanted to go and I was not in much shape to do anything else!

Well, I will not spoil the melodrama for  you, but this was a production really worth seeing!

The script and acting was cheesy ... random modern-ish songs were stuffed in to make you laugh, lots of bad puns, etc.  Exactly what you would expect in an old west melodrama!

Although not one of the main stars, one of the characters really stole the show!  There were some trip ups in the performance, as should be expected with any live production, and one of the minor characters was quick witted enough to turn it into a gag!  Which of course got the actors to laughing hysterically, which only made it more funny!  And this happened several times.

So when in Tucson you really should consider the Gaslight Theater, it was money well spend in my book this trip!
