This could be worth a trip from NY.

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

Indeed. As soon as I heard he was going to be appearing, I bought my ticket for the Follies concert in February. It's wonderful seeing him back on B'way.

I know. It's great that he still finds time to do theatre.

I will definitely have to look into this.

I wish I could see this!!! Maybe this means a possible Present Laughter revival?

I would go anywhere to see him read the phone book - oh, no, wait - I did see Stoppard's Acadia already...

In the 1990's, I took my daughter, then 10 years old, backstage to meet Mr. Garber, who was appearing as Applegate in Damn Yankees. He was gracious to me and absolutely heart-wrenchingly charming to my daughter! Definitely going to Boston for this one.

How long would you say it takes to get to Boston from NYC?

It's about 4 hours...more if you actually need to drive around in either city.

Lots of Amtrak trains - I think about 3-1/2 or 4 hours but you end up right in downtaown Boston.
