Mike, if you went to Quinn's tonight, sorry I wasn't there. Sonja invited me to see Berthold Brecht's "The Resistable Rise of Arturo Ui," performed by the Berliner Ensemble--in German, with supertitles. She had worked with the company and the Berkeley stage crew, translating the stage directions into English, and was given a pair of orchestra tickets. It was great theater--the actor Martin Wuttke was amazing as the Hitler-like Chicago mobster. The company was also excellent and the staging terrific.

But Sonja and I both will be at the Lighthouse next Thursday, and I will definitely be at the P & F potluck the 10th.
