If you live near Altoona, PA or can get there on Sunday, March 13, please join us for one performance at 8 pm of "A Scandalous Affair" starring Hallie Neill and Theodore Lambrinos. The musical show is based on the book Sweethearts.
Sharon Rich will do a book signing and Q&A after the performance.
The evening is a fundraiser for the theater. Maybe you're not aware of this but the chandelier in the theater is the very one that was used in the movie Maytime - when Jeanette and John Barrymore go to the court of Louie Napoleon! It was purchased at the MGM auction years ago and is a highlight of this beautiful theater!
Since this is a Sunday, we might try to put together a Mac/Eddy get-together in the afternoon as well. Please email us if you would like to attend a Mac/Eddy club event in the afternoon prior to the evening performance! This would probably be a free event since there is an admission fee for the evening show.
Tickets for the performance are available online at this link. You can learn more about the theater here.
If you are in the New York City area, please join us on the evening of February 18 for a production of "A Scandalous Affair." This is the musical based on the book "Sweethearts" and stars Hallie Neill and Theodore Lambrinos. The show is a fundraiser for the famous Players Club. There will be a celebrity reception afterwards with some "name" actors and also Sharon Rich will be featured in a "Meet and Greet" and book signing at this reception.
For this performance, the pianist is William Lewis, the accompanist for famous Irish tenor Ronan Tynan.
The Players Club is a very famous NYC landmark. It was founded by actor Edwin Booth - older brother of the infamous John Wilkes Booth. Mark Twain and other luminaries were members, as was John Barrymore and current stars like Al Pacino and Angela Lansbury. This is going to be a fabulous evening of entertainment and nostalgia. If you can get to NYC, please join us!

Forty-five years ago, the front page of worldwide newspapers announced the death of movie star Jeanette MacDonald. It was a shock to many that she died so young. But fans that had kept in touch with her via her fan club were aware that she had struggled with ill health for many years.
Her closest confidante - her older sister Blossom - also died on January 14th - thirteen years later. Without Blossom, we would not have investigated beyond the public facade behind the "song-filled life" of Jeanette MacDonald.
Let's celebrate the lives of both sisters today.
Here is some music for you to listen to or download:
