I refuse to do any research prior to attending, not because I don't want to do my due diligence as a reviewer but because I love the magic of theatre. Seeing a show with no expectations and no preconceived notions about what is to occur often provides me with an authentic experience the cast and crew work so hard to deliver. a?oeHarbora?? running at the FSU/Asolo Conservatory delivers this goal to near perfection.
