So this morning Ed got up, got dressed and took the subway down to Central Park to stand in line for the tickets. He arrived at 6:35. As a result, he was 14th in line for the Senior Tickets. They award 50 Senior Tickets and each person in line is allowed 2. Therefore, Ed was assured of getting tickets. The ticket locations are awarded at random. Our tickets ended up being in the third row from the front; however, we were way over on the side. But I must tell you, the performance was magnificent and possibly was the best theater experience I've ever had. Everyone in the cast was the best and the lighting and sets were great too. I cannot use enough superlatives. The people on the blow up bed could not get into the park until 6 a.m., but they stood in line outside the park beginning at 4 a.m. Then, when they were finally allowed into the park, they got in line and fell asleep. You must wait in line until 1 p.m. before they award the tickets. So Ed came home at 1 p.m. to take his morning shower, etc. Al Pacino was very good, but the woman who played Portia was quite, quite good. Her name is Lily Rabe. Everyone in the cast was recognizable; if you care, you can Google it. Of course, Ed made friends with everyone in the line around him.
