      See Ordinary Muslim at the New York Theater Workshop. See Farinelli and the King.

      Farinelli! I was considering but it looked it a bit... Slow paced. Do you recommend it?

      I’m going this evening. Can’t miss Rylance.

      I saw an 8pm show tonight I was considering. Rylance is amazing but wasn't sure I'd enjoy it enough to spend 70 bucks. Perhaps I'll reconsider.

      It's OK. I like Rylance, and the way they handle the singing is interesting, but the plot is a bit thin. If you do go, my dinner recommendation (esp. since it is so walkable today) is Ariana Restaurant in Hell's Kitchen (HK in general for theatre eats). Great hole-in-wall.

      The play was okay but, as you say, thin. Unlike me after this meal at Ariana. Damn me, it was good.

      Glad you enjoyed the meal! And yeah, play felt a little "meh." Rylance hamming it up a bit more than necessary. (The other "big" play/musical of the season, "And the Band Played On," is similarly thin.)

      Band Played, however, was a jewel.

      To each their own and etc. The only theatre that has floored me for awhile was Daniel Craig and David Oyelowo in "Othello" last winter — just a totally sublime, amazing, shockingly impressive experience.

          Gosh that sounds more transcendent than the bath I'm currently taking, to maximize my decadence
