2007: The Final Count

It seems appropriate to begin the blog with an ending. 2007 has been a very good year, theatrically, and the next blog I post is going to be my best and worst of the year. But before that I want to post the list of everything I saw this year. Some of the dates might be wrong, and I guess it's possible that one or two shows might have slipped through the cracks and are forgotten. Nevertheless, here it is, as complete as I was able to make it!
