Everyone at physical therapy is in costume today, only last year Gurjeet and Jennifer were dressed as McCain and Palin, and this year they're victims of a serial killer with knives and huge implements thrust through their heads, with lots of fake blood.
So, last night's partay was at the Bryant Park Cafe hich is a narrow and long space; I didn't realize we had the entire building so I spent over half the partay wondering where the cast was. I saw musicians and their spouses, the book adapter and his family, Brian the copyist and his writing partner, and other friends including producers Kevin Spirtas and his mother and partner, Jamie deRoy and David Zippel, and I also met Rob Berman's wonderful family: mother, father, and brother John who used to work for Warner-Elektra.
Around 11:30, as I was heading out, I learned the OTHER SIDE of the building was where the cast was strutting their stuff, so I wandered over to visit with them and to meet Warren Carlysle's family who had flown in from the UK. I spent some time with Jack Viertel, who told me the reviews were looking good, Rob Berman's partner choreographer Chase Brock and Chase's talented designer, Joshie and a lot of his friends. I would not recommendthis space again for a huge party but I like the place and the food - especially the salmon - was really delicious.
I have a bag of gifts to open so my last post on the event will be what I was given. First, I have to tidy the apartment.
