Last week I watched the 9-hour Royal Shakespeare company of Nicholas Nickleby, which I wish I'd seen live but in 1982 I couldn't afford a $100 ticket. I've seen the video three times in the past 40 years and it still amazes me. The incidental music by Stephen Oliver, who died from AIDS, is really wonderfdul and enhances the production.

BK, did you see this when it played in LA before moving to New Yotk?

I sure wish I could say I saw it then, but I didn’t, either. I well remember when it was playing — at the Mark Taper, right? I had just moved to Redondo Beach... Ah, the memories...

DR Elmore, is it available on home video, or did you say you were watching a tape you’d made?

Edit:  Yep, released on VHS / LD / DVD.

I hope the dentist can fix you up good.

I just want to say, I really enjoyed the Prologue, and I look forward to settling into Act I one of these days soon. I have been getting myself in shape for the marathon telling of the tale.

I refer, of course, not to Nicholas Nickleby, but to the IKEA story.

Thanks, Elmore. The library has the Nichols bio of Ravel. I’ll check it out.

Had a weird night of sleeplessness. I think the coffee ice cream had some caffeine in it.

I had dreams of swimming, inspired by reading Young Mungo. But I specifically recall someone telling me that if I really wanted to swim, I had to get into the water.

Nice title for a book or short story, however.

I bought my set several years ago from Amazon, I believe. It was a 4-DVD set from A&, and it's now OOP. Amazon is still selling it. You might do better on eBay or Region 2 Amazon.co.uk.
