Loved loved loved the original piece last year, and I love this just as much!

On a personal note, I’m thinking about the critic Clive Barnes, who was a neighbor when I lived in New York City and a casual friend of my partner Lenny. I mean, the kind of friend who stops and chats on the street for a moment, not the kind of friend you have cocktails and dish dance with.

But, still! Oh my god, I can just imagine him watching this performance and then riding about it. He was a small, unassuming man with a wry, British sense of humor. He’d have had an absolute ball writing this up!
