A Whole Lotta Fussin' Over Nothin'

AJ, AMM, and I went up to Logan to see the Wild West Shakespeare Co. put on A Whole Lotta Fussin’ Over Nothin’ a remake of Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing. It’s part of our adventures to go and explore Utah festivals and community events.

We arrived early in Logan to drive around and explore the area since I have never been there and grab lunch at the Beehive Grill (good root beer) before the play. We thought the play started at 5 pm but we were wrong, it started at 7 pm so we went back into town and explored both Logan Libraries (were librarians remember) and then went to Utah State University to grab ice cream and AJ gave us a short tour of the campus since she graduated from there.

When we arrived to the American West Heritage Center, they let us go on a short train ride around a pond, which actually was a bit fun and made me feel like a kid again. The play was held at an outdoor Pavilion setting the mood for the West. At first I was not too sure how the play was going to be but as the night moved along it really was Teresa Jones who played Jenny that made the show for me. Her portrayal of Jenny stole the show. It was community theater, but you could tell the cast was having fun and so it made it fun to watch.
