                      Might just be for my fellow theatre homies, but. Christopher Durang 😞

                      My very first time on stage was in a play of his (The Actor’s Nightmare) my freshman year of high school. What a talent.

                        @Roz I remember reading him for a comedy in lit class and was particularly taken by his work (Baby With the Bathwater iirc?). Sad to hear he’s gone 😞

                            Can we post ones we don’t mourn or regret?

                            Dodi : Suppose I could deliver you a star so big that little children in the crap-infested streets of Calcutta know his name.

                            Peter Dragon : Dodi, I’m eating spring rolls.

                            Dodi : Sorry. But suppose I could deliver this huge star, I mean, a guy better known than Tom Hanks, and you’d only have to pay him scale?

                            Peter Dragon : Who is it?

                            Dodi : Well, he’s a very complicated client.

                            Peter Dragon : Who is?

                            Dodi : I can’t tell you.

                            Peter Dragon : Can you give me a hint?

                            Dodi : Eh, he had some legal problems.

                            Peter Dragon : Drugs? Is it Robert Downey Jr.?

                            Dodi : No, Pete, my man’s clean. Straight-arrow, strong, healthy.

                            Peter Dragon : Can you give me a bigger hint?

                            Dodi : Well… he was falsely accused of a double murder.

                            [pause as Peter looks at him]

                            Dodi : Now, because of the potential P.R. problems, my agency can’t officially

                            [makes air quotes]

                            Dodi : represent him.

                            Peter Dragon : You’re pitching me O.J. Simpson.

                            Dodi : Yes, I am. Pete, little children in Calcutta know his face.

                            Peter Dragon : Yes, they know to run away from it.

                            Dodi : The name is more recognizable than Tom Hanks.

                            Peter Dragon : Okay. But, you know what, Tom Hanks refuses to go that extra mile and hack his WIFE to death!

                            Dodi : He was acquitted, man! Pete, with all due respect, someone’s gonna put him in something, and people are gonna want to see him. Sure, at first, as a curiosity, but I think they’re going to be pleasantly surprised with his acting chops. Now, he’s been studying with a coach- I recently saw him do a monologue from “Raisin in the Sun”.

                            Peter Dragon : Really? How was that?

                            Dodi : Truthfully? It was very moving.

                            Peter Dragon : Dodi?

                            Dodi : Yeah?

                            Peter Dragon : Get out!

                            Dodi : How about a villain? He’ll play a villain. Come on, who’s scarier?

                            [mimes stabbing]

                            Peter Dragon : YOU’RE scarier! God!

                            Dodi : Come on, Peter, just the shock value sells a million tickets, and he’s going at bargain-basement rates. Hey Pete, do you play golf?

                            Peter Dragon : You know what? I think I just threw up, like, inside my throat? Get out, please.

                            [shuts the door on him]

                            Dodi : [from outside] Okay, but just a word of warning: The guys at Fox are all over him!

                              @Alveraxus I vividly remember being in high school and my friends dad selling his white Bronco because he didn’t like either the jokes he kept getting about it.

                              That said, some assholes should’ve gotten their comeuppance. Not sorry he’s dead, just a shame it didn’t happen sooner.

                                      Man, MacNeil/Lehrer were my news heroes when I was coming up as a little journalism student (I was that kind of kid lol). The show is still the best nightly news cast you can watch, I think. Hell of a legacy.

                                      I want something else to get me through this
