Photo Flash: Patricia Morison, Anne Jeffreys and More at Pantages' LADIES OF AN INDETERMINATE AGE

By:

"They have over 357 years of successful theatre between them," said director and moderator John Bowab of Patricia Morison, Anne Jeffreys, Pat Marshall, Jane Kean and Charlotte Rae, during the recent "Musical Mondays" production held in the historic lobby of Los Angeles' Pantages Theatre and benefitting The Actors' Fund. The five very unique and different ladies came together for an perfectly delightful, educational and entertaining evening of wit, wisdom and wonderful music. Scroll below for photos from the event!

Jane Kean remarked, "My mother always dreamed of my appearing at the Pantages ... Well mother, at least I made it to the lobby." Patricia Morison shared how she was fired from her first job, but cried so hard, they gave her a walk on." Pat Marshall joked about her numerous relationships, but added that they resulted in her greatest achievements with five children and eight grand-children as well s great-grandchildren. Dripping in enough faux diamonds to make Carol Channing jealous, Anne Jeffreys expressed her only regret was her ill fated perfomance in the title role of Jerry Herman's "Mame," scheduled to open ... and subsequently closed ... on September 11, 2001 after 19 hijackers took control of four commercial airliners. Charlotte Rae, whose height gave levity to the evening as she playfully battled with lowering the performance mic shared with her taller companions said, "I seem to be shrinking ... but I'm still above ground."

Among the 20 musical selections presented during the evening were standards from the women's numerous combined hits such as "Getting to Know You," "I Feel a Song Coming On," How Are Things in Glova Morra," Before The Parade Passes By," "Hello, Young Lovers," "The Man I Love," "That's All I Ask of You," and Brush Up On Your Shakespeare."

LADIES OF AN INDETERMINATE AGE was Produced by Martin Wiviott and John Bowab, Directed by John Bowab and under the Musical Direction of Tom Griep. The Actors Fund gratefully acknowledged their Musical Monday sponsors: Nederlander, Corner Bakery, Sextant Wines, Tavern on Hollywood, with an enthusiatic thank you to Wells Fargo, for an additional gift of $5,000 during the evening to the charity, presented by Johnathan Weedman (Senior VP of Wells Fargo Foundation).
