A Lovely Night

You know, you go along and have boring days, and then, you have a night that reminds you how magical life can be.  We went to the American Ballet Theatre’s Gala tonight.  The performance was terrific, and the people watching, even better.  Even better than that was spending the night with the Deulls – especially nice to see Sara and meet Hannah.  Pictures, I am sure, will follow.  So, for the star gazing part of the evening, we saw Bebe Neuwirth as she was photographed on the red carpet, sat in front of Courtney B. Vance and Lucy Liu looked lovely.  But, of course, the best part of the evening was seeing all the reconstructed faces that should probably be condemned!  There were a couple of doozies!  Anyway, the performance was pretty spectacular, particularly Le Corsaire and a piece choreographed by Marcelo Gomes in the second half.  It was all delightful.  Then, off to the tent for dinner.  We left before dessert, but the dinner was great, and again, so great to be with friends!

Earlier in the day, we went to Occupational Therapy, and I have some video which I will work on incorporating into something special for a later date.  We also had a visit from Marjorie, which was nice, and then I ran off to a tech rehearsal.  I am dealing with canceling aides, so have to scramble for tomorrow, or miss part of the rehearsal, which is looking more and more likely.  At this point, though, I am not really needed for anything.  It is pretty much in the actors’ hands.  Opening on Wednesday!
