The sounds of the seventies are alive and well in musical theatre. Taking lessons he has learned from previous outings, Michael Freidman's compositions for THE FORTRESS OF SOLITUDE fly based on his keen ear for integrating disparate musical modalities into the fabric of musical theatre. These elements gel perfectly for Ghostlight Records' mesmerizing release of THE FORTRESS OF SOLITUDE (Original Cast Recording).

Akin to a Las Vegas show, We 3 Kings works dynamically as a showcase for its 3 artists: Luca Ellis, Shawn Klush and Brandon Michael Jones, especially for Jones, currently considered the premiere tribute artist of Michael Jackson. Now onstage at the El Portal in NoHo through New Year's Eve, it's enjoyable fare for those of us who grew up with and lived through the music of all three. Frank Sinatra (Luca Ellis) was the King of Swing of the 40s on up, Elvis Presley (Shawn Klush) the King of Rock and Roll in the 50s and Michael Jackson (Jones) the King of Pop commencing in the 60s as the tiniest member of The Jackson 5 (Jacquez Shanigan).
'Questioning Protocol,' the debut book by Fairfield author Randi Redmond Oster, won the prestigious award in the health general category. http://www.usabooknews.com/2014awardannouncement.html. 'Questioning Protocol' was published by WellPathPress, Fairfield, Conn. The book was chosen from a pool of hundreds of contenders that included works published by Simon & Schuster, Penguin, John Wiley & Sons, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, Kensington Books, Harlequin, McGraw-Hill, Llewellyn, and many independent publishing houses. 'I am truly humbled by this honor, and excited that I have a chance to help others who may be going through what I did,' said Oster. 'You can only win at a game if you know the rules. I hope my tips, tools and techniques empower others to navigate the healthcare system with increased confidence.' 'Questioning Protocol' is the account of Oster's grapple with the health care system after her son Gary was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease, a chronic digestive disorder. 'Gary required a battery of tests and underwent multiple operations. I wrote about all of it: the heart-warming, the heart-wrenching, the scary and the funny, in the hopes that readers would make use of the information to cope with their own personal crises. 'Questioning Protocol' empowers readers to speak up, question and find the right solutions for them,' Oster said. The 2014 USA Best Book Award is one of several awards Oster has won for her book. The book also is the 2014 Best Beach Read in health and an excerpt won the American Medical Writers Association's Eric Martin Award. 'I wrote the book to help others understand today's healthcare system. I now know my family was not alone in needing to deal with a healthcare crisis: there are some 141 million Americans with chronic diseases, and 36 million people per year facing hospitalization,' Oster said. The book offers tools and techniques for creating a high-performing healthcare team focused on what's best for the patient. Oster holds a degree in electrical engineering from Union College and an MBA from Boston University. She spent the first 18 years of her career in GE. She received a Black Belt in Six Sigma Quality certification and numerous leadership awards. She is a current Malcolm Baldrige Examiner specializing in the performance of healthcare-related organizations. She is a leading speaker on healthcare reform, shared decision making and patient engagement. Her work has appeared in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) as well as other leading industry publications, and she has won the prestigious Eric W. Martin Award for writing from the American Medical Writers Association. 'Questioning Protocol' is available on Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble.com.

Hard rock's original supergroup, Mr. Big are back with a vengeance with their new album …The Stories We Could Tell.
Electricity courses through Ogunquit Playhouse's stunning production of BILLY ELLIOT, continuing through July 26 at 'America's foremost summer theatre.'
Assembling a stellar cast and creative team, the Ogunquit Playhouse has mounted a powerful production of the Elton John-Lee Hall 2005 musical, Billy Elliot. Based on the 2000 film, both directed by Stephen Daldry with original choreography by Peter Darling, Billy Elliot movingly tells the story of a Yorkshire working class boy who discovers his unlikely passion and talent for ballet and who must win his coal miner father's acceptance for his chosen vocation. Set against the background of the bitter 1984 mining strike which pitted the workers' life and death struggle against Margaret Thatcher's push to close the mines, Billy's discovery of his artistic gift becomes his ticket not only to self-fulfillment, but also to escape from his family's bleak existence.
