First French Play

So last night I went to my first French play. Like I said in a few earlier posts, it was the play that we read during my preliminary course, but I went with my Theater and Politics class. The play was called Combat de nègre et de chiens by Bernard-Marie Koltès. Surprisingly, I was actually able to understand a large portion of what they were saying. Sometimes when they were yelling or doing drunken voices, I had trouble understanding, but I guess that's not too bad. It was in a theater in the 20th arrondissement called Théâtre national de la Colline. It was really neat. It was in a modern building and we actually had pretty decent seats. The play lasted about two hours. I think I'm going to really enjoy being in this class and going to different plays.
