I was thrilled to see four excellent shows: \u201cNetwork,\u201d with Bryan Cranston; \u201cWaverly Gallery,\u201d with the incredible 86-year-old Elaine May and one of my favorite actresses Joan Allen; \u201cThe Band\u2019s Visit\u201d that just blew us away; and \u201cDownstairs,\u201d with real-life siblings Tim and Tyne Daly. This last show was off-Broadway and in a small theatre, which was fantastic &#8211; and we had a bonus sighting of Tea Leoni. Seeing such great acting was good for the soul.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5565\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5565\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5565\" src=\"http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/6CECFE2D-B4E2-4827-B143-2848CB5D0F10-300x210.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"210\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/6CECFE2D-B4E2-4827-B143-2848CB5D0F10-300x210.jpeg 300w, http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/6CECFE2D-B4E2-4827-B143-2848CB5D0F10-768x538.jpeg 768w, http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/6CECFE2D-B4E2-4827-B143-2848CB5D0F10-1024x717.jpeg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-5565\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fun!!!<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_5562\" style=\"width: 235px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5562\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5562\" src=\"http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/0780F137-92FE-463B-A877-36938E88C18F-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/0780F137-92FE-463B-A877-36938E88C18F-225x300.jpeg 225w, http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/0780F137-92FE-463B-A877-36938E88C18F-768x1024.jpeg 768w, http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/0780F137-92FE-463B-A877-36938E88C18F.jpeg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-5562\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Belasco Theatre under the full moon<\/p><\/div>\n<p>We had a special treat yesterday when our trip overlapped briefly with our dear friends Mike and Wayne from San Antonio, so we had a lovely pre-show dinner with them last night shortly after they landed &#8211; what good luck!<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5564\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5564\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5564\" src=\"http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/D88AC300-C721-4662-8705-3CA2A6F317BC-300x247.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"247\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/D88AC300-C721-4662-8705-3CA2A6F317BC-300x247.jpeg 300w, http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/D88AC300-C721-4662-8705-3CA2A6F317BC-768x631.jpeg 768w, http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/D88AC300-C721-4662-8705-3CA2A6F317BC-1024x842.jpeg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-5564\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">With Mike and Wayne<\/p><\/div>\n<p>John and I took the subway to the 9\/11 memorial site.
