An Exhibit, A Play, and A Flimsy Excuse

I've been eyeing the Threads of Feeling exhibit at the Foundling Museum in London ever since I heard about it a month ago, and have, in fact, been seriously considering timing my next trip to London specifically to coincide with its run.

This review of the Threads of Feeling exhibit, by the lovely Julie at AustenOnly.com, has completely settled the matter for me.

I'll be there.

Don't believe me? Have you read the review yet?

And have we met? Because I've yet to see an exhibit that has my name written all over it to quite the extent that this one does.

H'm let's see: London, an 18th century orphanage, original fabric swatches and handwritten notes left behind by thousands of young ladies who had been "compromised," as they say...

Seriously, could anything possibly be more rad?

And oh, h'mmm, what's this?

A play starring Tom Hollander and Lisa Dillon at the Old Vic? Closing the same weekend as the Foundling Museum exhibit closes?

Well, gosh.

I think that pretty much settles it.

I mean, good things tend to happen when we go to the Old Vic.

#OMGLondon 2.0, anyone?
