I think it's great you are a man of your word. If you show up will you expect her to react a certain way? Do you expect her to appreciate it if you do show up?
I would certainly expect her to appreciate it if I showed up.. but not in a way thats different than I would expect her to appreciate any of her other friends showing up.

Because if you do go, you are only going to keep your word and nothing more. Then you will leave and nothing will have changed. Don't fool yourself into thinking that by coming to her play she will change her mind about you. It will only put you further into the friend zone.
Here's where I'm getting a little confused.. The implication here isn't that I think that if I go, she will change her mind about me. Romantically that is. To re-iterate.. I could care less about whether I'm in her friend zone or not, she's been in mine already for a while and I am no longer pursuing her. The thing is, I
want to be friends with her, she's a cool chick and would make a good friend. She still texts me every day and tries to talk, and basically she "talks a big game" about wanting to be friends or whatever, but I'm not interested in a text buddy, and she hasn't made any effort to see me in person. If I considered us friends, I would totally go to her play and support her without thinking twice.. But I guess I just find it hard to consider us friends when she doesn't ever wanna do anything.
Is this the type of thing that I should tell her straight up?

Next time you invite a girl out and she declines STOP inviting her. Don't continue to push her, it's a huge turn off.
Yeah for sure, realize though that these ~5 invitations were spread out over 5-6 weeks.. and all the while she was leading on that she really wanted to hang out. I was never needy with this broad whatsoever. But whatever I don't regret it, at least now I can very safely say that I gave her more then enough chances to be a part of my life, romantically or otherwise.
