I recently saw a great show playing off-Broadway at 59E59 called "Going to St. Ives". It was written by Lee Blessing and stars Vivienne Benesch (a personal favorite of mine) and L. Scott Caldwell, who both give amazing performances. The show could have easily fallen into stereotypical situations, but Mr. Blessing's expert writing makes it so that never happens. Go see it. I believe that it is only a limited engagement, so get to it ASAP.

That is the riddle:
As I walked out to St. Ives I met a man with seven wives...the numbers keep groing til the final question- how many were going to St.Ives?
The answer to which is ONE!

Oh, yes! Thanks. I remember that. Well, the play is quite a bit grimmer...
