so many plays to see in such a short time. Should really go tonight to Stu Richel's Viet Nam piece, but other plays beckon. Probably need ten days to see about twenty interesting plays. Oh well, there is still a decent amount of time to make decisions, if only all these plays were not presented in a time ghetto (for want of a better word), it would be a lot easier, but now, one really has to be available all the time. Even a retiree with much disposable income and a full day to rest before taking off for the theater, would be hard pressed to see
'everything".
Well, quite a twenty four hour period for you, cityboy! Beginning with Monday evening, the party at Bushwick Starr, lots of fun, much good conversation, had a nice talk with Rachel C, hope that the movie about the Team gets into that proposed theater film festival at Segal Center. Spoke to Flacco, who still wants me to be in his "event" at the Starr----that will be busy weekend for me with the play at Friends, as well as the Santa Con drinking event which this year will take place, in, of all places, Bushwick. Should be an interesting late night subway ride on the L train that Saturday night. But to get back to the party, spoke to some old friends, made some new ones, my theater commitment really helped. Sorry that I did not see the seven playwright response to stop and frisk at Segal Center, but simply had to rest before the party.
Some sleep in my newly heated apartment and then up at 6 to prepare for what turned out to be a six period day at Friends, mostly with those wild and wacky eighth graders. Will see some of them again on Friday, also committed to working in the library this Monday. Will have to work this out with Genesis today, but probably can manage.As tired as I was after period 8 at Friends, still managed to get to Convent Avenue and tutor my student Robert. When I left, well it was simply home. Got to sleep around seven, thank God.
Are we in a new place, is what I asked myself when the night was over. This has truly been an amazing couple of days, with the two visits from former classmates, the Bushwick trip and play watching at the Brick on Sunday, and the above. I suppose can't tell until the rest of the week develops......
