NANTA!

The family traveled to Seoul over the weekend to enjoy a Saturday matinee of the show NANTA.

NANTA, which opened in 1997 is Korea's most popular and longest running show....probably because of the star pictured at middle left in this photo! Actually, they take "volunteers" from the audience to participate in one of the scenes from the fast-moving, non-stop show. NANTA has been drawing the largest number of audiences in Korean stage history. The record-breaking show has broadened its stage from Seoul to Jeju Island in Korea to Broadway, NY, and to the world.

In the scene depicted, the wedding couple (Ryan and a random Korean girl) have just tested the soup and are celebrating with the chefs. Heather's favorite chef is the one on the right...his name in the play is "SEXY GUY" ;) The female Chef on the left was named "HOT SAUCE." The show was spectacular and was thoroughly enjoyed by the whole family. Hannah especially liked it; but got a bit grumpy when daddy was picked to go up on stage and not her. It is like Blue Man group meets Benihana.
