Billy Crystal's one-man play, "700 Sundays," is coming to the big stage - a really big one. HBO just confirmed an April 19 airdate at 9 The throughline: "The exclusive presentation is an original two-act play in which Crystal plays numerous characters who have influenced who he is today, dealing with his youth, growing up in the jazz world of Manhattan, his teenage years and, finally, adulthood."

This is of course of significant interest to Long Islanders because so much of it covers with his youth in Long Beach...
