Soul was the star of what is my most unusual experience in a theater.  He
played Jerry Springer in *Jerry Springer the Opera* when I saw the show in
London.

Speaking of theater, as an aside, I had both my best and worst theater
experiences in 2023 -- the best:  Sean Hayes in *Goodnight, Oscar* -- and
the worst: * A Girl from the North Country*.
