News about Wally and Maya
Tiaposians, be alerted: starring at The Magic Theatre, in her first major San Francisco performance, in a completely captivating role where she plays at least a dozen characters, is none other than (trumpets): Maya Lawson. Who is Maya Lawson? Well, she's Wally's grand-daughter, Candyce's daughter. Maya was around fifteen when we were hanging around Candyce's house holding Tiapos meetings lo these many years ago, when Wally was writing all those wonderful stories about Julie.
Plot didn't know anything about this when he and Duck arrived at the theater. It was one of the nicest surprises ever, but made nicer yet in that Maya is so danged good. Hanky, hope you're reading this and head on over to the Magic. You can all read the San Francisco Theater Blog review of "The K of D" here.
Incidentally, after the show Maya mentioned that Wally has not been well and is about to have gall bladder surgery. He apparently cannot get email right now, but we can write to him care of Candyce. Here is her address:
Wally Aron
c/o Candyce Rappaport
2251 McMillan
Eugene, OR 97405

We are going Oct. 19th and I will send a card to Wally. Thanks for the address!
First, you hang with a "cackling coven of critics?" (I really like that line!)
Second, K of D = Kent of Dodgers? What a strange idea for a play. I'm working on the frog angle.
Hey HankyB,
Thanks for the heads-up, on Wally (I've already sent a card) and on Maya (I'm about to make reservations).
