My original birthday plans were to go down to Disneyland for a few days, always a fun trip. But when it was announced that Kiril Kulish, one of the Tony-winning stars of Billy Elliot, was giving his last performance on October 3rd, and that Haydn Gwynne, the Tony-nominated actress who plays Mrs. Wilkinson, was giving her last performance on October 4th, I started crunching the numbers and realized it wouldn’t cost much more to go toNew York than it would to go to Disneyland. That is a bald-faced lie, of course, but I am sticking to it.

BONUS: Looks like I will also get to see the debut of Alex Ko as Billy on October 6th or, my birthday, October 7th!!!
