Also spotted in the audience (for those that are into this kind of stalking) were Steve Buscemi and Edward Norton Jr. And of course Sarah Vowell (you NPR nerds will like that.)
My own small party, which included the musical theatre star Caroline O'Connor, had a great time.
I feel such the heel. After our brief conversation (and the two words I exchanged with Ms. O'Connor) I dashed to catch a cab back to the hotel. I didn't even wait for a proper introduction (both an urgent need to get some sleep, and a desire not to make a pest of myself, conspired to make me a complete jerk.) Please do extend my apologies to her if you have the chance, and I hope that I'll have the opportunity to redress later this week.
And DZM, please wear an ID Tag with your name on it next time. That way, there's a fighting chance I won't have to google my brain cells and come up with the confusing result: Two Names Identified But Only One Face. The Command Cannot Be Completed. Please Reboot.
You're not the only one that had that confused look.
Next time - Name tag. "Hi! My name is MacRua."
