That would be Miguel deCervantes. I am Lenquixote de Cervantes.

.My cousin Sam wrote the play A Prelude to Hamlet that opened in NYC ,off broadway.The play I wrote that I am referring to (I wrote others as well) was Let My People Go,not related to the movie of the same name .

Please let us know how Tootsie is, need to pick 3 or 4 plays to see for our nyc trip

We saw Tootsie today with 42 other members of our theater club.The consensus opinion was that the show was good but not great.

For me the lead actor was nothing special but the lead actress had an amazing voice.

Several other actors were very good.I would recommend the play.

I forgot to add that we and 4 members of our group ate at Junior's.My wife and I never ate there before. It is something that you only go to once ,I would think.

We have done juniors many times and normally like it, there are two locations in midtown original is in Brooklyn, last year there was a half a hour wait at 1130 pm. Since stage deli and Carnegie deli closed only Jewish deli in midtown area.

Yes,I did and yes it is. Many years ago I was at Crosley Field and ate at a really good restaurant but I cannot recall the name. Friends and I went from Brooklyn to see the Mets play the Reds and drove back after the game.

wow Crosley field;  that is a long, long time ago.  Can not guess what restaurant you would have eaten at.  That ball park was not in downtown Cincy;  it was a few miles from the current stadium.

My friends;  it is a small world after all.  So many of us have been to visit the Worlds Fair and Juniors; yet we are from different parts of the USA

My wife and I did a driving tour of the US. we were in about 10 cities in Texas and I believe 6 in Ohio.
