At another Wooster show Elvis Costello sat behind me. Kate Valk is one of my all time fave actors. House/Lights is incredible!

It was a Wooster Group show - I’ve been to so many I can’t recall for sure but she had a script and was following along so I’m thinking it was Hamlet based on the movie. I’ll ask partner. I was distracted by SW’s blue and black moo cow leggings and her nail biting. thewoostergroup.org/hamlet

I’ve been working on a book about Valerie for about 15 years - I’m in my first draft. I have a sizable collection of her letters - few of them published. I’d be interested in learning more about your project!

I was working on a plan for what to do when the world order collapses. This morning I woke up to the confirmation that 18 different kinds of flashlights are arriving Tuesday

All the Sharks should provide interest free loans to every entrepreneur over the years you convinced to manufacture their gizmos in China and import them to the US for resell. China was a condition of a “deal” in almost every episode. You picked a good time to leave the show. #forthosereasonsimout
