Our play, Love, Loss, and What I Wore, is closing in New York on March 25 after more than 1000 performances.

It has been the most remarkable creative experience -- a show about women and for women, written, produced, directed, and performed by women.   It's been so much fun.  A divine ride.  From the bottom of my heart I thank everyone who came.  I thank Ilene Beckerman for writing the book, and all the awesome actresses, 120, who brought it to life.  We were so fortunate in all our collaborators -- our remarkable, committed producer Daryl Roth, our inspired director Karen Carpenter, our friends who contributed their stories, and all the people who worked on the show at the Westside Theater.  I especially thank my sister and co-writer, Nora Ephron.  Sisterhood is powerful.  Love to all.

Go two more blocks and there are 10 banks (one more Chase and one more Citi).
