Do you still get excited lining up outside a theatre? 🎭
For Christmas, Alex and I gifted our parents a night out to Shea’s Performing Arts Center — and it turned into such a great evening.
We went to see Jerry Seinfeld live.
Alex and I still watch the reruns and laugh all the time, so seeing him in person felt a little surreal.
Before the show, we stopped around the corner at Frankie Primo’s +39 North for a cocktail — an easy way to settle into the night. Then we lined up, and people came out in droves. That familiar buzz before the doors open never really changes.
I hadn’t been inside Shea’s in years.
The last productions I remember seeing there were Miss Saigon or Phantom of the Opera — many years ago. Walking back into that space reminded me how beautiful it really is. And to think it’s less than 10 minutes from my door.
I filmed a quick clip as we made our way to our seats — before I was asked (rightfully so) to put my phone away once Jerry came on stage.
We loved his humor.
No politics.
No swearing.
Just sharp, classic, observational comedy.
It wasn’t just the performance — it was the whole experience.
The theatre. The line. The laughter. Being out together.
More of this in 2026.
When you plan a night out, do you build the whole experience around it — dinner, drinks, theatre — or just the main event?
👇 I’d love to hear.
