Today marks Left Field Theatre's final show, and as such, after the cast party tomorrow, this blog will be laid to rest until such time when Ezra has spoken in the Cary theatre community once more (or, you know, when we all hang out during the remaining weeks of the summer).

If you miss us, go visit bathinginirony.tumblr.com, featuring the Director and I as your beloved Quoted and Quoter, plus friends. I'm going to college with that man, so the fun isn't about to stop here.
