We woke up to great news: the musicians union settled their contract & wont go on strike! ๐ whew!
Breakfast at Juniors then today's matinee. Off Broadway ( as Broadway doesn't have Thursday matinees. A tiny theatre a production sponsored by New Jersey repertory company and in partnership with the Susan Coleman breast cancer organization. The play was called "penpals " and was a two woman cast. They used scripts the entire time; it was truly readers theater. Each of them portrayed a woman who was a penpal starting in middle school until they were mature adults. One woman lived in New York and the other in rural England. A lovely story of a friendship from afar. What was cool was that actors were Priscilla Lopez, an original performer in "a chorus line " and Pauletta Washington, the wife of Denzel! It was really special to see them both.
Dinner was at Sardi's-- always a treat.
Tonight's show was the Alicia Keyes musical "Hell's Kitchen ". Outstanding choreography, music, and interesting story. We were particularly tickled because Christopher Jackson was in it! Besides playing his character and singing he played his own piano. Impressive!
Another super day! (I'm having trouble adding pix to blog so that will come later).
