On the subway last week, several 20-something guys pushed on at Grand Central. One of them was listening intently to a CD-player, evidently checking out his friend’s band. He finally exclaimed, “Dude! Great Snare Drums! Sounds like a piccolo.” His friend replied, “It is a piccolo.”
I saw Match Point and Hedda Gabbler in the same week. Interesting pairing – oddly similar. BAM’s production of Hedda was brilliant – don’t believe what the Times said. My only unfulfilled wish was for Cate Blanchett (Hedda) and Hugo Weaving (Judge Brack) to break out into elf dialogue.
