Photo Flash: First Look at Neil Simon's RUMORS at the Lonny Chapman Theatre
by Stephi Wild - Jun 20, 2018
The Group Rep's production of Neil Simon's classic farce RUMORS, directed by Doug Engalla, produced by Alyson York for the Group Rep, was well received opening weekend. RUMORS centers around five neurotic couples who gather for a dinner party celebrating one couple's 10th anniversary. The best laid plans go wildly awry when guests arrive early only to discover their host has shot himself, the hostess and servants are missing, and dinner not ready. As confusions and miscommunications mount, the evening spins off into farcical hilarity. The play opened June 15 and runs through July 29 at the Lonny Chapman Theatre in North Hollywood, at the edge of the NoHo Theatre and Arts District.

A celebrity filled audience was treated to a display of Callaway artistry at Birdland last night. Tony nominated actress Liz Callaway and Ann Hampton Callaway celebrated the soundtrack of their childhood with the unforgettable songs of the 60s & 70s. The New York Times got it right when they said the sisters 'lift these songs to expressive heights rarely attained by any singer'. Music director and pianist Alex Rybeck created the perfect accompaniment for the show. Alex & Jared Egan on bass also sang backup vocals, and Ron Tierno was on drums.
