Old times, or ...

... flattery will get you everything.

To fund-raising concert, where master of ceremonies was a favorite actor from the Golden Age, who was excited to see me at intermission, and who introduced me to his wife with the most exaggerated and (yes) wonderful praise of my plays. "Christ, you can rest on your laurels," he said on learning I didn't write plays any more. All of which made me feel good, which is to say, unforgotten.

He said he was working on a history play - inspired by my history plays!
