PlayhouseSquare is proud to announce that THE COLOR PURPLE, The Musical about Love, will play in the Palace Theatre, March 25 & 26 for three performances only.

On Sunday January 30 comedienne/singer Maxine Lapiduss brought a new show to Sterling's Upstairs @ Vitello's and received what few performers ever do in LA cabaret - a thunderous heartfelt standing ovation. This is one funny lady who can sing up a storm and make you laugh until your pants split. What an entertainer! Backed by an eight-piece orchestra under the musical direction of wonderful Michael Orland, Lapiduss wowed the SRO room with her nonstop hilarious comedy about life in LA, the fear of living and the need to change. Funny, yes, and with the delivery of a caring yet sarcastic next-door neighbor, she is down-to-earth, sassy and easy to like.

Theo Bikel and the Los Angeles theatrical community joined Tony Award Winner John Lloyd Young along with Musical Director Michael Orland as they took center stage for the Actors Fund concert series entitled MUSICAL MONDAYS, a series of Cabaret events in the lobby of the historic Pantages Theatre on December 13th.
