And going back many years - and most regrettably - Where's Charley? Opened during a recording strike, I seem to recall.

Reaching out for opinions and comments here. One thing I've never fully understood about SB is just what exactly ended Norma Desmond's career? Right off the bat, I'm ruling out the transmission to sound, because as we can tell there wasn't a thing wrong with either Swanson's or Close's or Balgord's speaking voice. Could it have been the types of roles she might have been insistent on continuing to play, while at the same time continuing to mature? Too unrealistic with her salary

A paid ad for both the show and the museum on my Facebook page that I absent mindedly failed to copy. I'll see if I come across it again.
1) I saw the Tozzi Zorba at Melody Top on Saturday, August 9, 1975; at the 6 PM show.
2) When I saw the Quinn version in early '83, The Leader was played by Debbie Shapiro.

Saw him on stage in a play at Steppenwolf in Chicago in the nineties; the name of which escapes me at this time.

The only time I saw her was in a pre-B'way musical called Sheba; which opened - and closed - in Chicago in July 1974.
Oliver! revival? Jan 22

I saw the non-Equity tour previously mentioned; the kids were the best things in the show. I also saw Cameron's 1977 London revival in '79. Roy Dotrice was Fagin. Excellent.

That revival with Powers was actually in 1996.
Were you fortunate enough to see the original production of Parade?

$35 for fourth row orchestra; for next Sunday matinee. Maybe the best deal I've ever gotten.

Furthermore, virtually nothing could improve upon the ironically chilling - and at the same time, sweaty - original Lincoln Center staging.

Starting previews in March at Pride Films and Plays. Seeing it on 3/24 at a preview. The cast is incredibly gorgeous; IMHO.
