Esther's Follies with Connie: Friday, September 19, 2014



Connie wanted to do "Austin" things while she was here.  Nothing is more "Austin" than Esther's Follies, a local comedy show that been running for about 30 years.  Here we are with Shannon Sedgewick, one of the troupe's founders.


Inside, some of the décor reminds me of Mardi Gras floats.

Connie and I waiting on Esther's patio for the show to start.  In case you haven't guessed, the troupe is named for Esther Williams, a Hollywood actress who is known for beautifully choreographed swimming scenes in films from the 1940s and a biographical film called "Million Dollar Mermaid," released in 1952. 

Papa Tom and me on the patio.  It was a warm night but I brought my jacket because it's generally cold inside theaters!
