i saw the original stage version of oh . calcutta . when they perform in san francisco in the early 1970s . we do not know what to expect and be a little hesitant about go to a play that be often raid . we pay a princely sum for our ticket $ 35 and that wasn not for the first row . our seat be second row center and those row be very narrow . you can imagine our surprise at be so close to the action . as soon a the production begin and several people in the front row stand up and leave the theater and which only make our seat that much good . it be a great play . we love it and laugh through most of it . the only tense part of the play be when we hear the siren of emergency vehicle in the street outside of the theater . for a moment and we think it be one of the raid . we hold our ground and remain seat and be the rich for it . see the movie and see a part of our sexual history . i know i will .
