I'm taking a quick break from my dazzling vacation in Buenos Aires--all right, Murray Hill--to tell you what bit of celebu-cultural excitement I happened to spot last night. At a performance of the Broadway revival of that slithering drama of sexual deception, Les Liaisons Dangereuses, guess who I saw sitting in one of the front rows? The glamorous couple Liam Neeson and Natasha Richardson! And guess who I didn't see come back after intermission? The glamorous couple Liam Neeson and Natasha Richardson! Just had to tell you that or I couldn't carry on with any pride. Now back to Walgreen's.
Doesn't he have a big dick? Maybe he had to run home and take care of it.

Liam Neeson has the largest hands I've ever seen on a male. No wonder his penis is reportedly a fully-loaded weapon of mass destruction. Perhaps dahling (and terribly lucky) Natasha was going to get a far sexier "liason" back at their apartment. And that play is a bore. Give me "Gypsy" any day, although I prefer the more true-to-life version where Mama Rose is a big swnatch-licking lesbo and pushes someone out of a hotel window. I forget the Sondheim song that goes with that scene.

Kathleen Turner sat next to me back in 2001 at Hedda Gabbler. At the top of her lungs in the first act she said to her daughter: "This is what we do!", pointing to the stage. She clapped a single clap at every good line. Then never returned after intermission. I was relieved. The production was excellent. I can't understand why she left.

"The production was excellent." That's probably WHY she left.

I sat right behind Jackie O at a dress rehearsal of G C Menotti"s opera The Saint Of Bleeker Street at the City Center. She was with Menotti's companion the composer Samuel Barber.
Is this actually true? Isn't there a Linney and Liam film that they did together...what was it called? Oh yeah, now I remember. Well, so much for "Love, Actually".
