I'm curious to know if anyone saw any of the performances of Women of a Certain Age before last night's election results came in.  I'm seeing the show Sunday, and I'd be really curious to know how much of the tone gets changed as a result of Trump's unexpected win.

I saw it last weekend. The results haven't been announced yet in the play, so I don't imagine it will change much from what I saw Saturday. There are just a few references to Hillary.

Yes, the play takes place on Election Night from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. So no results yet.

I also saw it last weekend. There's actually a fair amount of discussion about Hillary. I think it will necessarily evoke  a strong response to the political situation, although the plays haven't been overtly political. I found it incredibly moving, my favorite of the trilogy.
