Masked Man to the Rescue

Yesterday, my son came over to my place

wearing a mask to guard against spreading

the Coronavirus (a wise and considerate

thing to do).

He helped me install a device on my TV

so that I could subscribe to and receive

Disney + which will be featuring Hamilton

the Musical on their stream.

I have had that marvelous production on

CD and have listened to it many times. One

of my favorites shows in the annuls of Amer-

ican musicals. A stunningly creative master-

piece.

My son would have invited me to enjoy

watching it at his house, but I am one of

those elderly and autoimmune who would

be adversely affected by the pandemic.

Hamilton the Musical has been on my

bucket list since I heard it for the very

first time several years ago.

I would have paid the price to see the

production live and in person on Broad-

way, but given my personal disabled

condition and the shutdown of theaters

across the country that would not be a

likely happening for me.

So, today I will watch Hamilton on TV in the

security of my place, thanks to my son who

arrived in the nick of time as the masked man

who rode in on his four-wheeled stallion to 

save the day.


Rise up!
