"Jerry Orbach sings to me every morning.  Across the street from my office, at the newly christened Jerry Orbach Theater, there&amp;#039;s a video loop showing highlights from productions there, as well as clips from Jerry Orbach&amp;#039;s life in the theater. The song is &amp;quot;Try to Remember&amp;quot;\u2014he sang it in the original off-Broadway production of The Fantasticks, which is being revived in the theater that now bears his name. The actor you know from Law and Order was a real Broadway presence: He originated the role of Billy Flynn in Chicago, among others. I love hearing that song every day, but right now, I feel like it&amp;#039;s speaking to me. In September I do one of my favorite things: I read the fall preview articles in the paper and magazines, talk to my husband and son about what they&amp;#039;d like to see, and buy a bunch of theater tickets. They sit in their little envelopes, waiting to be used, and it always feels like money in the bank. I think we follow reality shows because we like to feel as if we&amp;#039;re watching a story unfold naturally (even though TV&amp;#039;s not exactly natural). Why not get that experience in the place where it was invented? Theater is live, right here, right now, and there is no second take. It engages you in a way something on a screen just can&amp;#039;t. So put down the remote and buy some tickets. (Sites I love: playbill.com for theater and arts news and discount tickets; broadwaybox.com for discount tickets; goldstarevents.com for events in many U.S. cities.) Theater is everywhere: in large (and small) cities, on college campuses, even at the local high school. Who knows? Maybe you&amp;#039;ll stumble across the next Jerry Orbach.\u2014Diane Oatis What&amp;#039;s the best play or live performance you&amp;#039;ve ever seen? Tell us about it in Comments.
