Grace and Carol arrived within half an hour of each other at Penn Station.... Penn Station and Madison Square Garden are both right there at 34th Street....
Celeste had suggested a restaurant that was near the theater we were attending and it was just perfect.
The show was Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill and you can see by the photo below that the whole theater (Circle in the Square) is set up like a real bar. In fact, if you pay for floor seats you can order drinks from the bar before the show begins and the star, Audra McDonald interacted with a few patrons.... She stays in character as Billie Holliday and is very impressive in that role....
Following the show, John headed back to Brooklyn while the 3 of us strolled around midtown....
right after taking this photo Grace began a conversation with a handsome well dressed young man who turns out to be a Western Branch graduate... such a small world.... he told us the Fashion Week events were being held in and around Lincoln Center so we began a slow walk in that direction....
