Born Yesterday is a comedy mixing politics and to some degree feminism written by Garson KAnin, the great playright that was married to the marvelous Ruth Gordon.
This is a good play to see at ACT and just opened last week. It runs from June 17th to July 17th. We saw it last Sunday at a preview and it was truly entertaining.
The woman who plays Bilie Dawn (Judy Holliday's character on Broadway) is outstanding if not superb in the role. She has amazing comedic timing and will have you laughing and wanting more. She uses her face to express more than just words and is too funny for words.
The supporting cast is good too; especially Rochard Ziman who plays Harry Brock, R. Hamilton Wright and PAul Morgan. Harry's character plays wonderfully against Billie.
The Allen Theater in the round means its hard to find a bad seat. If you've never been to act this is a good play to try out. Try and get the closest seats you can.

I needed to replace the boards that have rotted on my deck over the last 20 years.
I called Lowe's and Home Depot and not only was I kept on hold for ever but transfered no less than 5 times. It was a total waste of time.
It was only to find out what I needed they did not know if they had and when they found someone who could tell me they didn't have it I had lost my patience.
Then I made a call to Blackstock, all in stock, intelligent, well-schooled lumber people. When I came to pick it up (mind you 14 foot pieces are tricky even with a truck) the helpful person went through picking the best lumber and carefully loading it and tying it up just right for me to drive to Queen Anne Hill.
It was an in and out experience. I dealt only with professionals who knew what they were doing. IF you need lumber for anything skip the Lowe's and Home Depot route and try Blackstock. I was sure impressed and I left without that sick feeling I get a the other places (too much stuff and people to wade through.) Down on Elliott, there's a light to get in and out. Very nice and professional lumber yard.

I have been studying with Planet Earth for years and Laura and group are in a word the best. I have had neck and upper back trouble and this class has helped me enormously. Laura is not only a talented teacher but she is a good human being, one of the best people I have studied with, ever.
The first class is always free. I always walk out feeling more peace and my body always says, thank you!!! Try it, its an amazing class.
The room is light and airy. The yoga community who uses this studio are terrific folk.
FYI: As a breast cancer survivor I highly recommend others like me study yoga. It is a tough to go thru that and this class will help you with your survival. There are plenty of smiles for all.
