This past Saturday a tour bus pulled up to the Theatre Garage. While tour busses are common enough sights parked in front of the Ordway and the Historic State Theatre, they are unexpected at the Garage. Tour busses go to Broadway touring shows.
Tour busses go to musical revues.
Tour busses do not go to plays such as Eye of the Storm's Two Sisters and a Piano , the current production at the Garage. Cuba stamped across their front. The bus driver had driven to Lyndale and Lake and then paused, turning and calling out to his passengers to see if anybody knew where they were going, specifically. A few passengers responded with suggestions, all wrong, and the group wandered without a clear destination for a while, looking like some dour flotilla of lost refugees. I am tempted to read this symbolically, even though the bus eventually did locate its destination.
