Nov 10 NYC





 Our last full day in the Big Apple..

We met Greg at 11:30 for brunch at the Carnegie Diner (the deli permanently closed 🥲).  We had a wonderful but short visit!  We talked about the shows we just saw & the shows he has done over the years & what he’s up to now that he’s no longer dancing.  Presently he’s working costumes at Wicked so he had to leave at 1:00 to work. Always a joy to see him! 

Our afternoon was free so we decided to go to a movie. We saw “Priscilla.”  I did not realize it was directed by Sofia Coppola and I think that made it effective, if imperfect.  It was entertaining.  

Tonight’s show was “Gutenberg: the Musical” with Josh Gad & Andrew Rannells— both best known for “Book of Mormon.” What a pair!  It really felt like a two hour improvisation. It was a two person show. Extremely unusual. You really go to see them more than the show. The audience was ecstatic about them & their antics. But it really wasn’t a typical Broadway musical by any stretch.

So overall, we saw a great variety of musicals and had a lovely time.
