Brian Stokes Mitchell returned to the Hollywood Bowl in the role of the obsessive Javert in the Bowl's production of Les Miserables over the weekend. I dashed out of the hotel on Friday night, donned my work-out clothes which I had in trunk, picked up some Chinese food and purchased an inexpensive bench seat under a glorious starry night. At intermission, I withdrew my sack of chicken and vegetables to find that there were no utensils included. Thank you, John Paul and Jasmin, who were sitting next to me, for sharing their extra plastic cutlery and a bottle of Asahi. Strangers who rescued my evening and my take-out food. I am most grateful.
