New York, New York Nov 09

On a recent trip to NY, I checked out some performing possibilities....Fringe, Blueberry Pond, Clubs. Visited friends, Mimi, Jo Bruno, Susan & Tillman and Martin.

Did a lot in two days. Found New York Finge office: 520 8th Ave 3rd fl, visited Galleries Frick, Gugenheim, Folk Art, and Moma. Went for dinner with Susan, Tillman and Martin at La Voce on Madison and 26th Ave and had traditional St Martins Day Goose dinner. Stayed with Mimi, in Dobbs Ferry 45 min train ride outside NY on the Hudson River.

Saw great show- verbatium monologues on US Health Care, "Let Me Down Easy", Anna Devears Smith....very inspiring. My next show will be a Verbatium show...I've already started, with interviews from Cassandra Project and now playwrights workshop writing exercises with Marcus.

Toasting Betty Parsons

Sept 1 / 09

Home again to my Oscar and Gizzyboy, hurray. Nothing like coming home.

Took a cab to Richmond and James' Mum Judy was there to welcome me back with open arms and tea and rasberry crumble. A lovely warm reception. She also gave me carrots, beets and a piece of cheese bread for the road so I'd have some food when I got home.

London was a whirl wind of people and sights and then two days in the countryside- Surrey, Leatherhead and my visit with Betty Parsons. At 93 she is still the gracious hostess, looking after all her guests as they pass through London. She is full of wisdom and good advise, I took notes.

I left at 5:30 am and she had another guest from Austrilia
arriving at 3pm, then family arriving later that day.
So now to prepare for the Victoria show of Stripes: The Mystery Circus for Aug 12th.
