a play (lyn)

The sun has barely set and I'm having dinner.  It's 5:30,  I eat a small salad,  half a Fairway’s chicken pot pie, and a slice of a chocolate cake from Zabars.  I feel like I'm back on the Cape visiting my parents.  By 6, the dishes are cleared and I'm on a bus to meet Meredith.  We are seeing Venus in Fur, a new Broadway play starring Hugh Dancy and an extraordinary Nina Ariandra.  Curtain is at 7.

The play, like the performances, is exhilarating.  It's all the nourishment I really need.  I should have skipped the chocolate cake.
