“Porgy & Bess” = “Queen for a Day”.
I got back from Sweden and had a day & a half to organize a big party, so in the name of time management, I sacrificed going to see
“Porgy & Bess” at The Ahmanson.
Instead, I gave the tickets to my friends Gloria Gordon and Gloria Shepard. Both are theatre and musical fans, and I knew they’d enjoy it.
As soon as I got home from the trip, I got on the phone.
Arranged a car to take them downtown since driving at night isn’t an option. That way they wouldn’t have to worry about a thing.
A set of theater tickets if you can’t drive isn’t much of a gift.
I tried to take all the worry out of it and make it a magical night out.
Gloria Gordon wrote — or I should say, typed — me a ‘thank you’ note which I got the other day… I always know whenever I do anything, even the smallest gesture, she’ll send me an immediate kind word… which I always appreciate.
