I attended the revival of Einstein On The Beach at the Brooklyn Academy, and it was worth the trip from Florida. Phil Glass and the ensemble were in the pit, with Paul Zukovsky sitting just above them. Lucinda Childs danced wildly and wonderfully. It was am memorable evening, and the only time I have been to Brooklyn.
