Woah! What an incredible life and career. He was one of those figures who seemed like he'd just always be around, even if that is plainly impossible.
"...everyone finally shut up, and the audience could enjoy the beginning of the Anatevka Pogram in peace."

So sad to read. His body of work is testament to his mastery of storytelling. I am thankful I had to opportunity to see many of his plays during their original runs in London or on Broadway. A personal favorite (favorites?) was The Coast of Utopia trilogy. Leopoldstadt was a close second. I was 9 years old when Rosencrantz and Guildenstern... came to Broadway and I have always wished for a revival. RIP, Sir, and thank you for your artistry.

Gosh, what a loss! I read Coast of Utopia and Arcadia at least once a year -- with each read, something new emerges. What a legacy he leaves us with!
