Hats Off To The Stewart F. Lane & Bonnie Comley Event Lawn at The Parrish Art Museum

“Ladies, wear your best hat,” the invitation to the naming party for The Stewart F. Lane & Bonnie Comley Event Lawn at The Parrish Art Museum. And so, a panoply of palettes dotted the manicured ground, already the scene of jazz and movie nights.

“This was an ideal opportunity,” Lane — a hands-on Broadway producer, theater owner, author, playwright and director — told us. “In the last 13 summers that Bonnie and I have been here, we’ve always supported the art museum. And when they decided to move the location to this wonderful new area, I wanted to be part of it.” The Event Lawn seemed the perfect fit. “It dovetails nicely with our philosophy of contributing to local community affairs in our summer home. Plus, we could actually involve the idea of a theatrical event with the arts. Performance art with regular art is an opportunity we couldn’t pass up.” The Lanes also support the Bay Street Theater, Child Development Center of the Hamptons, and Watermill Center out here, among other East End causes.

They would love to see some outdoor theater on “their lawn” as well. “Greek tragedy is always fun in the summer,” Stewart quipped. He got a chance to keep his acting chops up when he was cast in “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum,” as Erronius, opposite Broadway stars Peter Scolari, Jackie Hoffman and Conrad John Schuck last summer at the Bay Street Theater. “Acting has always been my first love in the theater. It opened doors to other possibilities, including writing, directing and producing.” That includes a musical he wrote and is developing, called a “Moment in Time.” “Inspired by the music and lyrics of John Denver,” and performed in Long Island and Pasedena workshops, Stewart says he anticipates bringing it to Broadway. He also says it should do extremely well on tour. “The nation loves John Denver: mountains, clean air, clean water and hiking.”

The play is “an engaging father/son story about reconciliation and sacrifice. It’s something you’ve never seen on the Broadway stage, capturing a certain slice of Americana and tipping my hat to William Faulkner. It’s about an American soldier fighting for his life in Afghanistan. Through remembering his history with his girlfriend, his parents, and his father camping in the mountains of West Virginia that he discovers a real reason to live and survive.”

Perhaps that soldier’s tale can add another Tony to the Lane’s arsenal. Their most recent win was for “A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder.”

Always a family affair for the Lane’s – Stewart F. Lane, Bonnie Comley, James Comley, Virginia Comley, Frankie Lane, Lennie Lane, and Leah Lane. (Photo: Rob Rich/SocietyAllure.com)

  • Traffic in the Hamptons is Time Sensitive

Traffic in the Hamptons is time sensitive. Going east from 6 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. and west from 4 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. has become quite an ordeal. The initial expansion of “Highway 39” back around 2006-2007, in which the two-lane road was expanded to four and in some places six lanes, no longer is alleviating the traffic flow.

  • Sixty/Something: Solid Gold Rent

My first full-time year in the Hamptons started as a weekend and lasted a decade. I paid rent to a host of folks thinking I’d be moving back to NYC. Somehow the east end helped me transition to a very happily remarried east end guy.

This tale all started with me, a divorced dad having a fateful ride to Joe Shaw’s home as a favor to pick up a deposit on his sailboat. That day ended with me buying his sailboat. It was an on the spot spur of the moment epiphany moment. I knew nothing about sailboats or east end bays.

It’s been more than two years since the start of the pandemic where there was a significant increase in animal adoptions, known as the “pandemic puppy craze.” Now, animal shelters across the country have been experiencing a lull in adoptions.

  • As Local as It Gets, Sundaes on Main Now Open

You may have noticed a new frozen yogurt shop opened on Main Street in Bridgehampton. At first glance, you think surely it must be an NYC business making a run for Hamptons customers. How wrong you would be—”Sundaes on Main” is as local as it gets. @sundaes_on_main
