I always thought the. Lios from when they performed for Climton were the best.   


Reinking should get a Theater or Dance studio named after her. Or both.  Dec 16 2020, 01:14:58 PM

Jarethan said: "Dame, I usually love your posts, but this one is absurd. Angela Lansbury, Ethel Merman, Mary Martin, Gwen Verdon...Ann Reinking??? And that just covers female artists who do not have a theatre named after them. Expand that list to include directors (Bob Fosse included), composers, authors, even the occasional producer (e.g., David Merrick), and -- good as she was -- she was not in their league.

I always enjoyed Reinking; my favorite performance was actually

I agree .. watch it in Italian with subtitles. The dubbed version is dreadful. Changed the language after about 5 minutes . The movie is just ok.

Thank you all again for the well wishes. I think we are definitely healing. Sleep proved a challenge for both of us last night. Headaches and fatigue continue but in shorter increments.

@Dollypop.. yes hello Dolly is incredible feel good music. Been listening to a lot of soft jazz as well.

@Carlos.. gracias amigo.

I have read all of your posts and direct messages.. Thank you. Some really nice people here.


Recuperating from Covid and back on BWW  Nov 18 2020, 04:00:23 PM

Thanks again to all of you for the well wishes.  I am doing better.  Headaches and stiff neck still happening.   Husband is doing ok.  While in the hospital they also had him pumped up on steroids to reduce inflammation.  I believe he is now going thru withdrawal.  Which makes one very weak.    BTW... Hospital bills took no time in starting to arrive via the portal..   We have excellent insurance.. but... did you know that a tube of Petroleum

Thank you all for your kind words.   My husband was discharged yesterday.   From the time they told him he was going home to the time they brought him out it was 5 hours.   Hospitals are slammed right now .Just sitting in my car waiting and seeing the comings and goings was crazy.  
 

Someone in the thread asked if we could have caught this on a plane.   We haven't been on a plane in over-a year.   Palm Springs is a two hour drive from Los An

This past October 27 my husband and I both tested positive for Covid.  We had been so careful  We had stayed in our home since February.  We have our groceries delivered.  We wear our masks.  We keep our home super clean.  We have not seen our family and friends since February.    I have not seen my 85 year old mom since last December and my siblings since before then. 

On October 20 we rented a house in Palm Springs for a few days.  We

Mister Matt said: "Sueleen popped up not long ago, but I keep up with him and many many others on Facebook regularly. There are few of us left celebrating our BWW 15th anniversary this year, I fear."

I have kept up with Sueleen thru FB as well.   But we have never really revealed our BWW identities.  So it is all just a educated guess.


Bette Midler- who’s approval meant most to her during Dolly.  Nov 1 2020, 03:09:17 PM

BrodyFosse123 said: "And after a long hiatus from the show, I wouldn’t be surprised if she’d agreed to bring it back with the entire original revival cast. This would definitely infuse life back to Broadway when it finally returns. People would not only fly in to see her and HELLO, DOLLY!, but business would fuel into other shows, restaurants, hotels, etc."

It will be interesting to see if star driven vehicles help bring out of town theater goers back whe

BWAY Baby2 said: "Just vote Trump and all Republicans out- everything else is a sideshow now. If Randy is racist and you do not like him- don't watch him,"

Exactly.  But there is nothing wrong with expressing yourself and trashing him or defending him if you like.    But lecturing anyone on what they should or shouldn’t say or should or shouldn’t get over.. is stupid.
