which means that Hoops for Justice, in East Flatbush, may be canceled, That means cityboy has some extra time on his hands. Two movies? Possibly. Got to catch up.
Speaking of movies, I just recommended to Jason, who heads the Diversity Department at Friends a heads up about a movie that I really love. It is Losing Ground, written and directed by a wonderfully talented black woman named Kathleen Collins, and it stars Bill Gunn (an incredibly talented man who dies too young) and Seret Scott. This is the kind of movie he might really enjoy, and I am kind of on a high for reaching out to him. Will see how he responds.
Last night, tired though I was, headed for the ART theater space to see my friend Eliza's play the Beyonce--a take on a Chekhov short story. It is a strange and ultimately meaningful mash up of the Chekhov story, except that this version takes place (most of the time) in suburban Connecticut. Very well acted, I was not sure at the beginning if it would take hold, but after a time it did.Some of Eliza's
writing seems very ambitious. Most of the time she brought it off. Glad that I went.
Not much else to say; let the weekend proceed on its own steam. Still ambivalent about the possible colonoscopy. Will see how it goes...
