Well, the squirming kid made it through the show and he only kicked me once. Just wrapping things up here at the Keller. Poor, poor Rigoletto. The curse only had enough kick to ruin his life but the nefarious duke escapes unscathed? Booooo!

One last bit of trivia: Sarah Coburn, the performer who played Gilda, is currently six months pregnant. She spends a good portion of the third act in a burlap sack. Wow. Now that's what I call dedication to one's craft.
