When I was young and growing up in New York, my parents took me to children’s theater quite often - elaborate presentations of ‘Goldilocks’ and ‘Rapunzel’ for Upper East Side kids. As I grew older, they took me to adult theater, mostly musicals Picture Quote #1

I think that there is a sharp contrast for most people between life at university, where they meet lots of people, and the moment when they enter the workforce, when they basically no longer meet anyone.
