Celebrity Deaths Update

I've missed a bunch of celebrity deaths over the past month or so. After Liz Taylor, we lost a whole slew of talented folks including Loleatta Holloway (born 1946), Lanford Wilson (born 1937), Farley Granger (born 1925), Sidney Lumet (born 1924), Sol Saks (born 1910), Marie-France Pisier (born 1944), Phoebe Snow (born 1950), Yvette Vickers (born 1928), Poly Styrene (1957), Marian Mercer (born 1935), Jackie Cooper (born 1922), Arthur Laurents (born 1917), Dolores Fuller (born 1923), Norma Zimmer (born 1923) and Sada Thompson (born 1937).

I remember this gripping episode of FAMILY in which Sada's character awaits the results of a biopsy. A strange marketing decision by ABC shows an inappropriately whimsical logo for the series in an otherwise grim TV GUIDE ad. Notice the guest appearance by NANNY & THE PROFESSOR's Kim Richards.

LEGENDS - One Night Only!

Legends is a celebrated and rarely performed play written by James Kirkwood, Jr. It originally toured the states from January 1986 to January 1987. The play concerns the rivalry of two aging film stars, originally played by Broadway grande dames Mary Martin and Carol Channing. It also inspired Kirkwood's memoir, Diary of a Mad Playwright. Joan Collins and Linda Evans, former DYNASTY co-stars, toured with the show from September 2006 to May 2007. Both productions never made it to Broadway.

Now - for one night only   - MONDAY, MARCH 23 Legends will be staged at New York's Town Hall starring LYPSINKA, WHOOPI GOLDBERG and CHARLES BUSCH! Also starring BRYAN BATT of TV's MAD MEN! This is a once-in-a-lifetime event. If you love theater and/or are a fan of any of these outstanding performers - you must see Legends!
