That evening you are invited to the opening night of my daughter, Abigail Arader's, Broadway musical revival of "Comfort Women: A New Musical." She won the lead role over 1,878 other candidates. You are invited as my guest for the performance and dinner afterward. There will be performances for all of August and you are invited for these dates if July 28th is not convenient. 

Hope you can make it.

Truly,

Graham Arader
