Have you seen Elaine May in Woody Allen's "Crisis in Six Scenes?"

My fantasy is for Mariska Hargitay to play me. Or Ann Bancroft > except she's worse than too old, she's dead. (Sob.) I would also like to imagine: Viola Davis, Scarlett Johansson, Pauley Perrette, Cote de Pablo, Lady Gaga (who according to <https://www.creativecareernow.com/celebrity > is a 33% match to my looks. Especially the meat dress, right?!)

Esther - please come on down to Theatre for the New City and see Hamlet In Harlem. There are TWO, yes 2, over 65 women on stage (I am one of them). I promise a very smart and very funny hour!

Oh I do hope you decide to write your unique take on growing old. My choice of theatrical representation would have been Bea Arthur or Elaine Stritch. But----too late.

I saw Linda Lavin on Broadway last week. She’s 85 and fabulous.
