Just Saw The Weirdest Thing

I came up from having lunch at the West Egg in the basement of the Daley Center and in the lobby they had a stage and 40 chairs set up filled with 10 asleep, or incoherent octogenarians. They are watching a single woman on stage breakdown and cry as she says "my baby, my baby, there's not water for my baby, my baby will die." and on and on, crying and acting. It turns out they're putting on a one-woman show re-enacting the Albanian Holocaust. It's Albanian Heritage month. It was the most surreal thing. Just one woman going on and on about her baby dying, on mic, echoing through the Daley Center with 10 old people in this empty audience. Very weird.
