PHOTO FLASH. EXTRA. EXTRA.












This past Tuesday, Tony's Di Napoli hosted an incredible buffet dinner with the works for the winners of the Drama Desk Awards. It was a blast and I had an incredible time. We wanted to thank Bruce for being a great host and supporter of theater events. I also enjoyed two frozen bellini's my favorite sweet frozen drink in NYC. Thank you, Bruce!
