Thursday Evening = NYC, TV, & Broadway
Yesterday evening was a quintessential NY evening. Matt had to work and I got offered tickets to go see "MotherF***** With The Hat" on Broadway starring Bobby Cannavale, Chris Rock, Elizabeth Rodriquez (really good), Annabella Sciorra (fierce!) and Yul Vázquez (hilarious!!). I hated going without Matthew, but someone had to see the show, right? I invited a friend of mine, David, and we had a great time.
I took the NY Waterways ferry into mid-town, which, in and of itself, is very NJ/NYC. When the ferry docked and let us passengers off, we all discovered a TV scene shoot happening for Person Of Interest (yes, I saw James Caviezel and have a picture of him below).
Though I won't be in any of the show's scenes, it was very cool to watch them do a couple of takes. I ran into an acquaintance when I came out of the bathroom. In talking to him - at a normal talking volume - in the echo chamber of the station foyer, we almost got thrown out of the station!
Here are a couple of photos:
After picking up the tickets, buying some WONKA Easter basket candy, and getting something to eat at TGI Fridays, I went to the theater to meet up with David.
The show was GREAT! The stage was really cool, too. The curtain was up when we entered the theater (above). There were three basic scenes and the stage moved in separate parts with moving parts inside those to make the different apartment scenes. Even a couch rolled over up and out of the floor onto the stage for one of the apartments and a bed folded up - automatically - into one of the walls. IT.WAS.SO.COOL!!
After the show, David and I took our playbills (below) to get signed by the actors and pose for pictures.
Each of the actors looked really tired, but Bobby looked especially drained. It was an emotionally draining show. At one point, I even noticed a REAL tear drop off Bobby's face. Amazing acting. Very funny, intricate, and deep. Loved it. I really want to take Matt to see it later. Hopefully, we'll meet up with Bobby et al again!
