Erica, if you haven't see TICK...TICK...BOOM on Netflix. Sondheim plays a significant role in Jonathan Larsen's growth as an artist. I saw RENT six times and it always slayed me. The film had the wrong director [Chris Columbus]; it needed someone who could be more gritty.
My 79-year-old conspiracy-minded pa just offed himself by catching COVID-19. Culturally, we do a terrible job of preparing people to face the end of their own life. It's coming at some point regardless. I try to focus on the highest quality of life between now and then, and on achieving something approaching wisdom if time remains. Well wishes to you and great kvetching.
A brilliant ending!
