Magic at the Strand

Family

The Strand Theater on Waynesville’s Main Street beckoned us and Stan & Mary back again, this time on the opening weekend of the latest movie in the J.K.Rowling world of wizardry. Set in 1926, it’s not exactly a Harry Potter film but rather the tale behind one of the textbooks that Harry used at Hogwarts. A movie at The Strand is a more intimate theater setting than at the mega theaters that we’ve so often experienced. We four all loved Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. We weren’t quite quick enough afterwards to score a table at the Boojum Taproom but instead enjoyed a most delicious dinner at Blossom on Main. A nice finish to our interlude in the mountains of North Carolina!

Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week. We popped over for a bite to eat and to peruse the galleries to learn a little more about Hampstead history.

Wicked The Musical

Wicked The Musical

Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
