This is Louis …

Debbie and I went to the Wilma last night to see Terry Teachout's play Satchmo at the Waldorf. It was wonderful. The performance by John Douglas Thompson was a marvel. His ability to change character by changing his tone of voice was uncanny. And it's a fine, well-rounded portrait of a great artist and a complex man. Tonight is the last performance at the Wilma, but if you see the play being put on anywhere, hie thee there.
