A few nights ago, I drove to Joliet to see the national tour of "Movin' Out". My married friends, Katrina and Mike very sweetly invited me out to see their one night at the Rialto Theatre. Mike stage manages the production and Katrina sells the goods (merchandise). The show was magnificent; the theatre was beautiful, but nothing topped seeing old friends. Katrina and Mike had to get back to work shortly after curtain, but I can't wait to see them again.
My analysis of Joliet? I didn't find the prison, but I also didn't have my Blues Brothers soundtrack (or my sunglasses at night) so I'll have to go back when I'm properly outfitted. I did, however, see Harrah's Casino. It was difficult to miss the Vegas style flashing white lights amidst the quaint little mid-western town. Apparently, Joliet is one of the fastest growing cities in the mid-west. With Harrah's Casino, the Infamous Joliet Prison, and Route 66, how could it not be? Joliet is Jumpin'.
