Listening: Lush Life Started in print format, but switched to CD, which I like much better in this case. Bobby Cannavale nails it!

Read: As Bees In Honey Drown by Douglas Carter Beane. This guy is hilarious. Similar themes to a number of other works I like a lot.

Re-read for work: Statements After an Arrest Under the Immorality Act
That got me to pick up Valley Song, which I saw 15 years ago (with Fugard!); great to refresh on the details. I am in love with this play. The text brings it back in breathing, moving life. Worth a read every ten years or so. Youth/age, fading/bursting, pumpkins/dreams. Thank you.

Gosh, 1995. I wonder if I was pregnant with J when we saw it.

Saw: 12? or so Senior Projects presentations at school.

Saw: Dance concert at school. rocky first half, lovely second half (preview, though I also think I just didn't like the first half as much).
