I saw Glengarry Glen Ross at the Roadhouse tonight. It was very good. The characters were intriguing; although most of them I wouldn't like if I knew them in person.
I was chatting afterward with a few members of the cast and a rather amiable gay-friendly straight guy and his wife. I actually thought that the straight guy was gay years ago and flirting with me, and we ended up at his place one night. (This was maybe 15 years ago.) While we were there, he said something like, "you know I'm straight, right?" Anywho, that is ancient history.
The straight guy was really a fan of the movie (which I haven't seen) and very much enjoyed the play. While chatting with the cast, he said, "Wow, that was so good. I feel like I should blow you all." I sort of bit my tongue and just said something like "Gracious!" when I really wanted to quip, "Now, please leave that sort of thing to us professionals."
