    Knockout performances by James McAvoy in "Cyrano de Bergerac" and Sam Rockwell in "American Buffalo." The only downer aspect of the latter was Mamet himself.

    Ok. I have to say something. I went to see Harmony last night-masked-and when I saw a number of audience members at the Museum of Jewish Heritage were not masked, I fled before it started. Manilow emerged from an elevator, maskless. I’m glad I had the presence of mind to depart.

    That was so much fun to cover. Not only did my story on the day she turned down the Tony nod make A-1 in the Times, but it led to one of the most amazing experiences of my career -- following Julie around backstage and behind sets during a V/V performance

    Our opened his 1996 Tony recap for the Times with Best Actress in a Musical and "No Award for Andrews" was even part of the headline.

    Would love to be a fly on the green room wall this week to hear Rockwell, Criss and Fishburne talking about Mamet now. “I mean, WTF?” “F—- do I know.” “Get him out of your f——-g head.” “F—-.” “F—-.” “F—-.”
