The fun of NY theater going - Maggers - 01-03-2007
I saw Blythe Danner tonight in Tennessee Williams' "Suddenly Last Summer." I discovered that I am NOT a Tennessee Williams devotee.
That being said, perhaps because the show has a limited run, there were some celebrities in the audience. No one radically well known, but Elizabeth Berkley, the lead in the notoriously rotten "Showgirls" was all tall and leggy and blond 2 rows ahead of me. Dylan Baker and his mom were 4 rows in front. He's a fine character actor who usually plays button-down lawyers, priests, or uptight characters. I've always enjoyed him. And in my row, author Eric Van Lustbader sat alone. I wouldn't have recognized him if he hadn't been part of the "Thriller" panel with FPW.
At any rate, the show was OK, but it was fun checking out the audience to see who was there.

I'm one of the very few people I know that will admit to liking "Showgirls." I liked Elizabeth Berkely, but I especially liked Gina Gershon.

I, too, enjoyed Gina Gershon in that awful film and in just about everything else in which she's appeared.

We saw GG in "Chicago" there a few years ago. She was terriffic.
One year after seeing the Nutcracker at Lincoln Center we went to a restaurant nearby and I got to pee next to John Stamos. Talk about timing!!!
