The first page of my working script of Temptation, used in rehearsals and at all performances, signed this evening by Mr. Vaclav Havel:

Script Page signed by Vaclav Havel


It was a very nice little gathering at the residence of Czech Ambassador to the U.N., Martin Palous. Good food, good drink, good conversation. Too much and too little to say at the same time. I think we got to understand better what Havel meant and means to the Czechs, and at the same time the Ambassador and other guests got to understand why he means anything to us. The big word of the night was "context."


It'll feel good to look at this page as I start the show at the remaining performances.


Sometimes theatre life is sleeping in basements on the Lower East Side, with rats crawling around your head every night, wondering how to have something to eat tomorrow, and sometimes it's an evening sipping Merlot on the roof of the Czech Ambassador's, talking with him about China and India. Strange.
