I finally went to see a show that I've been wanting to see for some time. Spalding Gray - Stories Left to Tell. I've been something of a Spalding Gray fan for many years - not a real expert, but knowing enough to say, Hey, Spalding Gray, I really like him. He was an analytical self-observer, which I kind of am, too, but he was sharp and funny and honest.
The show was terrific, and I would like to see it again. It was taken from his journals and other writings, and its poignancy made me cry.
There are 4 ongoing cast members, and one role that is taken by guest actors. I wasn't familiar with the guest actor I saw, but Tuesday Whoopie Goldberg will take the role for 1 benefit performance, then David Boreanaz will do the rest of the week. When the lights came up today and I had my sniffling under control, I realized that David Boreanaz was sitting not more than 5 feet away from me in the audience. So celebrity sighting bonus. I wouldn't mind going to see it again next week when he's acting.
