Stephen Sondheim

One of the best evenings of my life so far.  Pietro got us tickets to see "A discussion with Stephen Sondheim and Frank Rich" at McCarter Theater at Princeton.  It was Epic. With a capital E. Not only did we get an inside look into his thoughts opinions and feelings about his own work but we heard him riff on other famous people and shows AND

he spoke to me.

ok maybe more accurately yelled at me because I took a picture (WHICH WAS TOTALLY ALLOWED I MIGHT ADD) and my flash was off as directed but my camera still gave off a pre-taking-the-picture light.  In an audience of at least 200 he singled me out, pointed directly at me, and said "please don't do that"
Muahaha it was awesome :)

The picture I got was not a very good one but the white blob to the left is Stephen Sondheim and the slightly more clear person to the right is Frank Rich (of the NY Times).


Below are some pictures we took walking around the campus at sunset before the show














And below is the view from Pietro's apartment at night
