Last night, draped in as much sparkle and eye kohl as I could muster, I taxied down to Wilton's Music Hall to see The Great Gatsby. Late and flustered, the usher found me a pew. The beauty of the decayed interior distracted me from the play, which bounced along fairly quickly to intermission. I grabbed a punch whilst friends sipped on Mint Juleps, Sidecars and other nostalgic coktails in keeping with the eve. I heard some average reviews of the play, but in the setting I was transported to its era when amateur dramatics and music Halls were the hot entertainment. I loved it! After the play we danced to the jazz band whilst Charleston experts put us to shame. I didn't take any pictures but thought I'd share some of the web that capture the spirit.
