Theater in Brooklyn.

9-26-18 SHORT HILLS: Over the weekend we caught the Heights Players production of Oliver! in Brooklyn. Val gave a bunch of us, Alison, Dan, Lily, Sam, Judy and me, dinner on her deck before the show. Steve Quint was a perfect Fagin, scary, manipulative, deceitful, avaricious, and audible in a venue that is acoustically challenged. The mix of amateur and professional performers did a great job. Also, we actually parked on the street in Brooklyn Heights.

Yesterday, we had another storm and got another three inches of rain. The yard is soggy. The flagstone walkways are as slippery as ice. The doors are all swollen and stuck, and the windows clouded with condensation.

We had dinner with Barbara and Stan at Marcus B & P in Newark, a restaurant that is a new fav.

I have done a little weeding and trimming when the rain has let up.


Pretty scary - Steve Quint as Fagin in the Heights Players production of Oliver!

Unfortunately, the run is over.
