...what the play was like, the hurrying into seats, the white furs and black satin lapels, the amiable crowd in the lobby at intermission. But then you don't know what transpired in the car as they parked on a hill overlooking Boston, and I wont' tell you. The tender togetherness of young lovers can be shared with...
