riff’s rants #1: chain reaction

Due to popular demand, I am debuting a new video feature, “riff’s rants,” in which I detail unusual encounters I’ve had during my mad transit adventures through New York City.

In this inaugural post, I share some strangeness that happened last month at the Chain Theatre, where I was watching the off-Broadway premiere of Eric Bogosian’s Humpty Dumpty.

I’m still completely flummoxed by the whole thing.
