Off-broadway could have been further off, either physi cally in miles or in atmosphere. The journey to Grand Street in the heart of the great isolated, self-contained, exotic and teeming East Side took one into a world most of us seldom visited on any other occasion and one which was, in many respects, as foreign as though it had been located on a dif ferent continent.
