The approximate conversation when recently telling friends I would be seeing Roundabout Theatre’s production of Waiting for Godot on Broadway:
“It’s going to be great. Nathan Lane, John Goodman, and Bill Irwin”.
“Wow, Nathan Lane and John Goodman, that’s awesome!”
“They’re cool. But I’m totally going for Bill Irwin.”
“Yeah, I don’t know who that is.”
“Hmm. I don’t think we should be friends anymore.”
