This was from 4 years ago, but still, yes, I hope he is still resting in peace!

He passed away in 2016. Thanks for the anniversary reminder.

Reminds me of the time I sat next to an elderly woman and her daughter at Three Tall Women. The daughter asked me if Albee was still with us. I replied that he recently died but had lived a long life and was very old when he passed.
The daughter replied "my mother was actually born a year before he was."
Awkward. But it was neat to watch the show next to someone who was the same age as the old lady in the play. I wondered what she thought about it but I didn't get a chance to ask.

Damn. Just when you think 2020 couldn’t get any worse, Edward Albee dies again.

He died again??? A big, fat FLOP!


I miss him a lot.

Yeah.  TMZ reported it about 20 minutes ago.

Thank goodness! We don't need any zombie Albees or Millers roaming around. Or...do we...?

I thought Facebook was the only place where people can die multiple times.  Apparently, it's catching.  I think LuPone fanatic has some 'splainin' to do rather than just disappearing into the good night. :)

We should cut Patti LuPone FANatic some slack. He's so obsessed with CHICAGO he probably blocks out all other theatre news. To him, a story about Edward Albee's death is a current event.

That means she is still alive.  Believe me folks I fact check that network and chock full of "misinformation."
