Couple Honored for Years of Theater Viewing
When was the last time you saw live theater? It seems to be a dying art form, in this highly televised, rapidly edited lifestyle we’ve created for ourselves. But nothing replaces theater - live, visceral, deeply human.
This couple has certainly done their part supporting the arts. What can we do to support the arts this week? Check your paper for a local show or listen to a classical piece of music (really listen to it.) Do your part to support the arts. It matters.
Ever since they helped found Primary Stages in 1985 and took seats on its board of directors, Marvin and Anne Einhorn have also volunteered five days a week as the receptionists manning the phones at the Off Broadway theater’s offices. On Friday, Mr. Einhorn, 89, and Mrs. Einhorn, 86 — who have been married for 67 years — will receive an honor that usually goes to a millionaire donor: Primary Stages will name its theater school on their behalf in recognition of their longtime commitment.
