Brigid called and I invited her to see Cats ( tickets $200 ). Cabbed to the theater ( $6 ). We had first-row seats but on the side.

The first act was so boring, [he goes on to graphically describe being able to see and be shocked by the female performers' genitalia through their costumes]

They should really wear pads. But oh, you could really just see everything! Maybe that's why all these old men are going to see the show. And I finally saw what the set was, a big Pop Art thing, it was like two-feet-high Coke bottles, and two feet high Campbell's Soup Cans, whatever you would find in a kitchen. But Oldenburg size.

And people were gesturing for me to look at it. And a lady near us put her husband's coat and hat on a box in front of them, and it turned out to be a Brillo box that was part of the set and his hat got squashed when a cat sat on it.

Maybe it should have been called Camels instead of Cats? (sorry...)
