The Good:

Kali kali kali and this fabulous little restaurant we went to where we had wine in bowls! This is will much, much funnier to you all when you read the next Descensus chapter (part 1 of which which will be posted this weekend) that we wrote weeks ago on this very subject, more or less. Also, more than one deeply amusing and fabulous clothing choice.

The bad:

Despite calling an actor to tech rehearsal 1 hour before it began, she still showed up 15 minutes after it started. Yes, this seriously fucked my world up.

The ugly:

So concerned am I about her ability to get to the performances when I need her there that I am picking her up at her house before each performance. I am utterly furious about having to do this, or at least will be when it's all over. Right now, it's merely a necessity.

Also people on the Upper East Side who aren't old line old money. Sure, there's problems with that too, but at least they know how to dress and how to behave in a restaurant. Dear god. My favourite was when this one guy walked in when we were waiting for a table and Kali looked him up and down, totally about to approve and then wrinkled her nose because he was just as bad as the rest, despite having forgone the Abercrombie.

the culture wars are now being fought over classic opera?
