New York is so much fun but SO cold! I love being there with Antonio; he is working so hard on his role as Guido Contini in "Nine". As you can imagine he loves every minute of it. The girls are all fantastic and just great to work with. The Theatre is such a wonderful place to work in-- such good energy there! They are all gearing up for the opening April 10th. I have read some of the messages on the board and know that some of you already have tickets. I am happy to hear that and hope you enjoy the show.

To fill you in on SABERA, Penelope Cruz and I resigned this January as Honorary Co-Presidents of SABERA America. There have been many changes within the foundation. After much thought we've decided that it is best that we focus our efforts on the private sponsorship of our girls at 'Kalitala' in Calcutta. Penelope and I are both involved with many other charities and it had become very difficult for us to be so heavily involved with just one organization. But we will always be in touch with the girls

Well, I am off to New York again-I guess I've become bi-coastal.
I'll write soon.
