“If we didn’t pick rooms, we were headed for divorce.” I’ll admit that it’s a little strange writing a Man About Town column when nobody is allowed out on the town, but luckily for me, I still have people reaching out to tell me how they’re handling things during this time of quarantine. She was […]
“I have a lot of folks I check on. I just go by and knock on their door, and because now, we gotta think about not causing trouble for each other, I just let them yell from the other side of the door that they’re good, and then I go on to the next house.” […]
“Nobody can ever find the house. Back in the days before cell phones, I’d have to be on the landline for half the night talking to people calling in from pay phones. ‘No, you missed it. It’s the first right, then another right.’ Half of them would give up and go home. Once GPS and […]
Hello Dolly! tends to come along right when you need it to.

“He brought Flames to the party. The boy ain’t playin’ around none, is he?” She told me to bring chicken if I was going to bring anything, and she said to make sure it was spicy. I went to Flames on Eddy Street, which makes my favorite chicken in Rhode Island, and brought it over […]
“You have everything in the world you want; you’ve told me about your home, and your family, and your own little zoo.” – Edward Albee, Zoo Story In 2004, Edward Albee added a prequel to his iconic 1959 play, “The Zoo Story.” Rarely ever has a playwright been able to make such a large adjustment […]
“He’d come over and I’d do his laundry for him. That was the big thing. I did his laundry how he liked it. He never let anybody else do it. Just me.” Late on a Saturday night, a 24-hour laundromat can be a surprisingly hopping spot. Laundry might seem like the last thing you’d want […]
“Sometimes I think, when it gets too quiet up there, you say to yourself, ‘What kind of mischief can I play on My friend Tevye?’” Every so often a tour comes through PPAC that seems to have all the right pieces and just doesn’t fit. It’s understood that the road can do a lot to […]
