...with their first man in space and just 48 hours before the disastrous Bay of Pigs began. He had asked me to listen to the debate among his science and budget advisers. It was not a happy discussion. His space men wanted to go, but his budget man, David Elliott Bell, cautioned about spending $40 billion.

In one of those periodic bouts of political jitters, the Maxine Elliott Theater was closed to Cradle the day before the opening. Ironically, since the show is vociferously pro-union, the musicians' and actors' unions forbade them to play or go onstage...
