Anne Activity for the Week of March 10 Includes But is Not Limited To:

• Last night: A delightful exhibition tennis match at Madison Square Garden between Pete Sampras and Roger Federer. Very entertaining. I don't know much about tennis but once again, it was proven to me why I'll see just about anything from a corporate skybox at MSG. How can you go wrong with free booze (which included a bottle of McCallan's 12 Year), free food(which included one of these), cushioned theater seats and a private bathroom? You can't. You simply can't go wrong. Unless you wanted to catch Federer's headband or a stray tennis ball, and in that case, you may need to get a life. Anyway, I went into the evening rooting for Roger, because I didn't know better, then I realized that the real dude to cheer for is the "old guy" born in the U.S.A. And our boy Pete made things competitive! So competetive, he almost pulled it off. Good fun was had between the opponents, lots of laughs, and lots of GO, PETE! shouted from the stands. The match was sponsored by Rolex and NetJets, and luckily for me, I happen to be in the market for a luxury watch and a private plane so that was some convenient shiz, no?


• Tonight: Weird, weird, weird. I will be attending a dinner in lower Manhattan with a naturist group (ie: nudist group). The program is called Clothing Optional Dinners. In other words: No Hot Soup! As they like to say. I'll be performing in MORTIFIED--- with clothes. That's right, MORTIFIED's the entertainment, at the most exposed MORTIFIED ever! No need to picture the audience naked, kids---they already are. When I was asked whether or not I'd like to be naked as well, I replied, "Hell! I don't even shower naked, yo." Read all about Clothing Optional Dinners here from an article written in '05. This I've gotta see. I think. I chalk all this shiz up to the stories I'm going to tell my imaginary gran' chillin'.


• Thursday: I'll be seeing "Posteriors" (compliments of Robbi Kearn) live at Comix: "Woody Allen stole from Ingmar Bergman and we’re stealing it back…sort of. The TWEED Fractured Classicks Series continues on Thursday, March 13th at Comix with Posteriors, a fully staged send up of Woody Allen's 1978 drama "Interiors". Twisted by jealousy, insecurity and resentment, this is the story of an interior designer mother deserted by her husband and her emotionally glacial relationships of their three grown daughters. This spoof will be interpreted by a dynamic cast including, Julie Halston (The Class), David Rakoff (This American Life), Peter Frechette (Tony Nominee), Lennon Parham and downtown legends Steve Hayes, Brenda Bergman, David Ilku and Jodi Lennon. Directed by TWEED’s Kevin Malony and presented by Jodi Lennon, Robbi Kearns and TWEED TheaterWorks." For tickets and more info: click here.
