To paraphrase Mr. Samuel Clemens, The reports of their talent has been greatly exagerrated. The good news is I have never felt deprived missing out on their talent. Perhaps I would if it was accompanied by more humility.

Just tune out when they go somewhere you don't like.TrustMovieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01130460547029155342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9216011953770444735.post-75951089851373126882010-05-26T22:21:45.217-04:002010-05-26T22:21:45.217-04:00Ray, my Dear Mother, a'lev'asholem, loved ...Ray, my Dear Mother, a'lev'asholem, loved Mitzie Gayner. <br />She was my mom's favorite entertainer.<br />Mitzie is coming to the Welk Resort in Escondido, Ca. September, 2010. My wife and I will definitely make every effort possible to be there to see her perform.<br />I wish we could have been there for the "Drama Desk Awards Show". <br />I can hear Frankie singing -- "New York, New York"<br /><br />Great Blog as usual.

In Miss Mitzi's case the exception is made because she is the last of an era who know that they are there to perform not to politic. Miss Mitzi, Miss Landsbury, Miss Tharp and perhaps Miss LuPone are the last of the lights of broadway to shine for their remarkable talent. Imagaine putting the likes of Sarandon, Garafola, Robbins, Penn and the like in the same sentence. My milk sours at how these "entertainers" think themselves more important than the parts they play. New York is so much more than these poeple. How many people in NY care what Mitzi said to Brooke? Ny is more than this glitz and make-up. Elsie's milk has turn to sour cream today.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9216011953770444735.post-17267771858346244132010-05-26T08:22:23.568-04:002010-05-26T08:22:23.568-04:00I so love this piece Ray! made me laugh, love love...I so love this piece Ray! made me laugh, love love love NY dammitgirlontapehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12107411738753899518noreply@blogger.com
