Going to the theater from suburbs of New York
A Leslie Eichel column narrator recounts moving from the city to a suburban life with rain, commutes, and theatre outings. He notes the lure of New Yorker life, the daily frustrations of transport, and the irony of chasing culture while daily life proves awkward and windy. The piece closes with a rainday mishap and a tease of continuing story on page 14.
