<\/a><\/p>\nNow speaking of animals… (nice segue,\u00a0 if I say so myself) I was on the\u00a0 \u00a0bus after seeing Lincoln\u00a0Center Theater’s production of The Wolves.<\/em>\u00a0 \u00a0A good interesting\u00a0 \u00a0play about a\u00a0high school girls’ soccer team at the Mitzi Newhouse Theater.\u00a0 (See Kay’s Notes\u00a0<\/strong> for more\u00a0 on the play and the playwright.)<\/p>\n \u00a0While\u00a0 I was waiting for the bus after the play,\u00a0 some of the young\u00a0 cast went by and shouted, “Thanks for coming, hope you liked it!” as they saw us in the queue\u00a0 holding our\u00a0 PLAYBILL with its yellow logo.<\/p>\n Seeing the bus\u00a0 approaching,\u00a0 I got ready to step up those steep stairs, Metro card in hand with\u00a0 my red sweater\u00a0 under my black cape. (BTW, I was freezing, it was a cold windy night)\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0And behind me came\u00a0 the laughing\u00a0 well-dressed couple,\u00a0 and the rest, as they say, is history.<\/p>\n \u00a0Interesting happenings…happen all the time in this City.<\/p>\n \u00a0For more than a hint of color…Central Park in the fall is gorgeous!<\/strong><\/p>\n Love this City!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n KAY’S NOTES:<\/strong><\/p>\n IMPORTANT TO KNOW:\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>From LCT’s website…about the playwright and the play:\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>Last season a young playwright,\u00a0Sarah DeLappe<\/b>, brought her debut play,\u00a0THE WOLVES<\/b>, to New York and it became something of a phenomenon. It was a finalist for the 2017 Pulitzer Prize for Drama; the production w<\/span><\/em>on an Obie Ensemble Award; it won a special Drama Desk Award for its acting ensemble, and was nominated for Lucille Lortel and Drama League awards for Best Play, as well as for the Outer Critics\u2019 Circle John Gassner Award for Outstanding New American Play. \u00a0<\/span><\/em>At its most straightforward,\u00a0THE WOLVES<\/b>\u00a0is a fly-on-<\/em>the-wall look at a girls\u2019 high school soccer team as they go through their warm-ups. Beyond the surface, though, is the thoughtful and eloquent way Ms. DeLappe delineates each of the young women in the space of 90 minutes and six scenes.<\/em><\/p>\n GOOD TO KNOW:\u00a0<\/strong>Lincoln Center Theater membership link and remember tickets for MY FAIR LADY now on sale\u00a0 opening in Spring 2018, a production by Lincoln Center Theater.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0http:\/\/www.lct.org\/membership\/<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n *Fun to know<\/strong>:\u00a0The line I used to intro this post came from Nathan Lane’s character in\u00a0 \u00a0the movie The Birdcage.<\/em> In the scene he came out\u00a0 in a suit (not his character’s usual attire)\u00a0 <\/em>and\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 when he crossed his legs..voil\u00e0…\u00a0 pink socks!\u00a0 Hence, one of the favorite quotes from the film.\u00a0 \u00a0 If you’ve seen the movie you know the scene, if not you’re missing a really funny and touching movie.<\/p>\n Disclaimer: I try for correct info on my posts, but no guarantees people<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Or..How a play, a bus trip, and a piece of attire\u00a0 can make for an interesting fall evening!
