OK

So 

It’s Mother’s Day and theoretically I get to choose the family activity  (as there is no evidence that the family has prepared the Mom-gets-to-go-to-a-spa-alone option).

So there are two show’s (both closing their runs with a matinee today) that I would like to see/check off my professional tracking other professionals to-do list.  They are “The Mechanicals” at the Bond Street Theatre (Because Johanna Sherman and Anna Zastrow are in it) and “Puppet Kafka” at Here (because Gretchen Van Lente is involved).

I let My Kid chose and  ”Puppet Kafka”  won hands down because we ran into Gretchen in Manhattan last week and she gave us a card for the puppet show at Here Art Space.   The April 29 New York Times review of the show by Neil Genzlinger begins:

         “There are people who love puppets, there are people who love Kafka, and there is almost certainly a subset of people who love both puppets and Kafka. Their moment has arrived.”

So we’ve just ordered the tickets online and that’s what our family is doing for Mother’s Day!
