Greetings Folks

Last week before the show, I met Nellie, a woman who said after all these years she is finally going to see this play that she had heard about for so long (11 years) and had been attempting to see. Anyway as the play was about to end, I turned to her to say my last line and saw she had a tear rolling down her face. Nellie is Thelonious Monk's widow.

Tonight is my final performance at the MOLDY FIG JAZZ CLUB where I get the opportunity to be Thelonious Sphere Monk once more in Laurence Holder's Audelco Award winning play, MONK, with music composed by Bill Lee. I hope you can be there so that we can share tears of joy together enjoying the life and times of an American Genius of JAZZ, THELONIOUS SPHERE MONK.....
