Kleinhan's Music Hall, where I heard the Buffalo Philharmonic, conducted by Michael Tilson Thomas when I was ten, was designed by Eero Saarinen, who also designed the Gateway Arch and the Tulip Chair.
I have been in all three.
John Cleese and Terry Gilliam met while appearing in a West End production of the musical Half a Sixpence, starring Tommy Steele. It was in the same production that Cleese met his future wife Connie Booth. The book for Half a Sixpence was written by Beverley Cross, later married to Maggie Smith.
I think it heartbreaking that Philip Seymour Hoffman and Mark Rylance never worked together. Matthew Warchus directed them both and certainly thought of them as artists with a deep kinship.
