There’s another thread someone else started inquiring about which events members have taken escorts to.
This is something I’ve wondered about doing. I enjoy musical theater shows and I always buy two tickets for the shows (several months ahead of time) and hope I can get a date to go with me. Last night I bought tickets to Mamma Mia!, which is coming to my Nashville in March. Maybe I can get a date, maybe I will take my daughter, maybe I will go by myself.
But if I take an escort, how would that work, logistically?
1. How many hours would I pay for with her to take her to a musical? The musicals last 2 to 2 1/2 hours, but there’s also driving time. And I never want to get there right when it starts. Musical theater attendees usually show up 30 minutes beforehand when they open the doors of the theater and start seating people. So 2 1/2 hours for the show, plus 30 minutes of driving time, plus 30 minutes to get there early and get seated. And of course I’d want time alone with the escort back at the Incall location, so 30 more minutes of driving time plus 30 minutes to an hour with the escort. That’s a lot of time to schedule.
2. How would we get to the theater? Would she ride with me or would be she comfortable with that? Would we get an Uber or Lyft?
3. Either we’d be able to make conversation in the car and everything would be smooth or it could be awkward trying to make conversation. I’m not the world’s best conversationalist.
It would be totally awesome to take an escort to a musical theater show with me but I have wondered about these other factors and I’m trepidatious about attempting it.
