“Later, Gaiman, 48, reads his disturbing comic piece about a man who works as a living statue in a city square, and stalks a young woman he admires from afar, eventually waiting for her in total stillness in the dark of her apartment.

But the story doesn’t end there. It turns out that Palmer, 33, spent five years of her life working as a living statue in Harvard Square! It’s as if these two eccentric artists were ordained to meet. They have so much in common, it’s no wonder they get along. In fact, they announce onstage that they’re dating.“
