I was in New York a few weeks ago, and I saw three plays while I was there. One was the new Green Day musical, “American Idiot”. I am not a theater critic so I will leave it at that. My favorite play of the three was “Next Fall” a play which I hope one of the theaters here (I hope ACT) picks up. The third play is a work by Nora Ephron, a play that explores the role of clothing in a woman’s life. It is called “Love, Loss, and What I wore”. Here is a link to the website http://www.lovelossonstage.com/
Again, I am not a theater critic. My college roommate came to Seattle because I talked him into it, and became a theater critic here….google Steve Wiecking. So perhaps he could either give this Nora Ephron play a good review…or not. But I did think it was an interesting topic, dramatic events that happen in our lives and what outfits we wore. How we feel about clothes. It seems to fit in with our Great American Apparel Diet. I thought, too bad all of us ( how many now? Over 100?) can’t take a field trip to New York! Gnaomi Siemens will not have to travel far. We could see this play together and then have a chat about it after. The standout of the show was Danny DeVito’s and Rhea Pearlman’s daughter. She was great!!! Anyway, google it. Very interesting. I think Nora Ephron should visit our site here, maybe we would inspire more monologues for her play.

Is anyone else a Harold Pinter fan? I hope you will go to ACT starting Jan 21st to see two short plays written by Pinter, and directed by Victor Pappas. Let’s dress up and go to the theater!
