Just off the high of choosing Peter Sis's wonderful picture book, The Wall, for this year's Sibert Medal, I spent today (my birthday, even) in NYC seeing Tom Stoppard's Broadway play Rock 'n' Roll which is about the same subject--Prague in 1968 and beyond. Spectacular. It's on a limited run, so if you're in/near/going to the city, don't miss it. If you read The Wall before you go, you'll have a bit of background so you're not befuddled by the politics. The acting's superb.
