so as...

the inequlaity in the city seems never to go away, cityboy has a "triumph". Well, not exactly, but an interesting day yesterday. Decided, after library, that I should see the Gurney play at Signature, went around 1, had not trouble getting in. Millions of seniors there, almost (it seemed) like three quarters of the audience. Made me feel very out of it, yet saw the play. Not bad, a little forced dramaturgically, a really good performance by Carolyn McCormick, yet still a hollowed out kind of feeling. Nice thing about Signature is that is a place where you can BE. Tired, but prepared for my trip to Bushwick to see the Starr's play Heartbreak. Not a great play by any means, an original quirky sense of being and some interesting dialogue shifts, but watching this play, I felt that I was really watching theater. The acting seemed so organic and crisp---totally unique as compared to the aftrnoon's performers who seemed to be (or perhaps were directed to be) delivering the script. Afterwards, as usual, went out to "hang" with the creators and actors, always fun, since this was last performance the producer from New Georges was there as well. Really interesting and vital conversations with whole cast and others seeing the play, Great time, and my comparing the afternoon's performance to the evening's was vital to my conversation and the applause that I could
'give" the actors. Stayed at Heavy Woods, where we all gathered after the short time at the Beer Bar, until midnight, very late for me. Woke up this mornng with a really great feeling.
Today, a trip to Brooklyn (where I am using this computer), then not sure, do not want to see anything today, hopefully some good conversation later at South Fourth (where I hope to end up) or some other place.
