as computer time may be running out. So in brief: yesterday saw This Is A Room, a play using only the words from an FBI investigation of a government employee who may have committed a security leak. Very intensely and deliberately staged--my friend Frank played a major role, and he was at his best. In the beginning the woman being questioned seems like a victim, actually she was responsible for the leak, So the actress who is so good, is actually not a victim in the beginning (the play is set up to make us think that) but is lying to the agents. But does that justify her imprisonment for espionage, which is what happened. Still, a strong dramatic experience---after that, walked with my friend Frank to where he is staying in the east village, then had a pizza slice nearby then headed to a quiet bar (believe it or not, on Friday there are quiet bars) on 20rh and 2nd---had a beer, watched some sports, the bartender was friendly but not talkative--mostly there by myself, but at least the place gave me some room to "be", most other bars south of 14th on 2nd or 3rd were pretty crowded. After that went home.
I have one session coming up, late for Saturday, so I got some rest this morning---after that I am free, I definitely do not want to see a play today, after two in a row--possibly I will go to Brooklyn or see a movie and then head to La Flaca---I have not been there in a while, and like the place. Will report soon.
