Now, my husband took me to MT for my last birthday (29).  My parents
went, too, and all of us had a blast!  I was skeptical...it's not something
I would have chosen left to my own devices.  My dad absolutely abhors 
eating Cornish Game Hens (they're about football sized, which in his 
thinking makes them only good for heaving against the wall!), because
they're too much effort to disect, my husband generally has an aversion
to "hand food" and MT doesn't provide utensils!  Amazingly enough, with
these factors stacked against us, we had a wonderful time.  I thought
the food was quite tasty (and I'm the gourmet of the family -- resident
food critic), and I didn't even mind getting continually picked on (for
being the birthday girl) by our "Knave".  I explained to him that noone
likes a surly Knave.

We went on a Sunday afternoon for a matinee.  I'd do this again, and I'd
love to take some other people.  You have to be prepared to "get into it".
This is not a show for spectators only.  Remember to use your imagination
and you'll have a great time!
