Lysistrata Blog 5

I saw the Boycott yesterday and it was inspiring. First of all, Kathryn Blume is an amazing actress. She was so well composed and seemed to know her lines so well. She also performed amazingly. if they had actually made the play into a movie, i'm sure it would have been awesome because she already made us see props that weren't actually there and feel the tension between two people even though she was the only one performing.
The play was pretty much a parody of Lysistrata except that Lysistrata in itself is already really funny. I'm amazed that there are people that are able to practice so much environmentally friendly things. I wish we could. It's hard for an individual to keep up with these kind of things because it's easy to forget. and it's really inconvenient. Say you're the only one who doesn't use plastic. Imagine what life would be like if you wanted apple juice! You would have to pick and apple (organic, of course) and then use the juice squeezer and... ohh it's just too much work. well, there has to be something we can do. since the juice squeezer would be made of plastic.

Yeah, I'm pretty lazy, I just buy Minute Maid apple juice. I didn't see the play, but I hear it was a great Lysistrata parody.
