still worried about....

roundups in different cities---hateful to see people frightened---it seems like there is a lot of resistance and planning around protecting people. That is a good thing.
 So we live with this (but wern't we really living with it before as well---with much less awareness)
Not much else to say, so I will make this clumsy transition to my own "adventure" last night.
    Headed to Dixon Place to see the Geraldine Page biographical play, created and performed by her daughter, Angelica. Usually when I go to Dixon Place there are some familiar faces to chat with, but here, as I suspected, because the late Miss Page is not that well known by the generation that frequents Dixon Place, there was nobody that I knew, and many first times, sort of awed by the surroundings.Theater was only half filled; maybe this was the first time in my many times at the Place that it was like that. The piece itself was very interesting, a little over long, a little too episodic, but also quite moving in its way. It begins with the daughter confronting us with her inability to let go of her late mother's memory, then she quickly morphs into Miss Page, Anecdote after anecdote follows, in a somewhat orderly fashion. Much of it is interesting, especially to me, who followed her career all her performing life. Lots of dropped names that I could recognize. The three performances that I saw Miss Page give between 1959 and 1964 (The Princess in Sweet Bird of Youth; Nina in Strange Interlude; and Olga in Three Sisters) were all amazing. The piece continues until her death at which time Angelica goes back to the framing device and gives us a moving conclusion. Not a great evening, a little too episodic, but at least got me in touch with Miss Page and her collaborators, who I had followed in the fifties and sixties.
   Walked up to the Fried Chicken place on 2nd and 2nd---yummy! Then returned home. Slept quickly then awoke at about 2---a little turbulent--but things are more in place now.
  Today, after library, will go to Friends middle school play at 5, and then Everybody at Signature at 8. After that, will probably drop into Lansdowne Road two blocks away, watch some sports, and then return home. Tomorrow, as I said in the last blog is the time for me to see Brian Parks' new play at the Brick, at least that is the plan.
   Will report back soon...
