That’s Weird, Grandma, April 26th 2009

All anyone in Chicago can talk about today is the weather, which is reasonable. It is gorgeous out and I hope you are reading this hours after I’ve posted it, having spent the whole day away from the computer enjoying the sun.
Wait, I’m sorry, this isn’t supposed to be about the weather, but rather about this week’s “That’s Weird, Grandma”.
First, we’re still on Sunday afternoons! We’ve had great houses the first couple weeks, and hope to have even more folks this weekend. Lots of kids at the shows so far, which is great fun. As always, you can buy tickets online.
Second, yesterday, April 23rd, was the EIGHTH anniversary of “That’s Weird, Grandma”. Yep, the show opened April 23rd, 2001. A lot of things were different back then, with the world and with the show. We’ll be posting some fun facts and anecdotes about the show’s run in a couple of days. If you have a particularly exciting bit of trivia or a burning TWG history question, feel free to .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) over the weekend and I’ll try to work your comment (or the answer to your question) into the post.
Thirdly, this week’s show features one (though multi-part) new story, a joyful look at what it’s like to be deaf, “Because I am deaf, I can…” Full running order after the jump!
