SPOTLIGHT ON: Rachel York, Cruella de Vil in THE 101 DALMATIONS MUSICAL at Atlanta’s Cobb Energy Performing Arts Center October 28 – November 1
by Joseph Harrison - Oct 21, 2009

When asked to come up with the most vile, sinister and deliciously evil villains in popular literature and culture, one name would likely appear on many lists: Cruella de Vil. Notorious for kidnapping innocent Dalmation puppies to use their distinctive spots for her own evil purposes, Cruella conjures memories of divine extravagance coupled with pure greed. And nothing beats seeing a villain of her stature live and in the flesh (or rather, the flesh of her animal du jour). Audiences in Atlanta will soon get their chance to revel in the antics of Cruella and her canine cohorts when The 101 Dalmatians Musical, based on the 1956 classic story written by Dodie Smith, rolls into the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Center on Wednesday, October 28th.

Chazz Palminteri Tells His 'Bronx Tale' In Las Vegas
by Ellen Sterling - Oct 8, 2009

We me a lot of people last night. There were Rudy Ice, Eddie Mush, Frankie Coffeecake, Jo-Jo the Whale, Jimmy 10-to-2 and Harry Wheeeee-ah. (That last word is an attempt to replicate the sound of someone preparing to lob a loogie out his window.) Yes, there was a crowd that, in the end numbered 18. But three of them were more important than the others: Calogero Lorenzo Palminteri, his father Lorenzo and Sonny, the local capo di tutti capi -the neighborhood crime boss. Of course 'we' (the audience at the Venetian Theatre in Las Vegas) didn't actually 'meet' all these people.
