Legend is right, but 'yesteryear'?? There are some other legends on the multiple covers that 'New York' magazine did that we'll likely never see on Broadway again, but Patti is still going. Hurrah!

Shrrieek!!! That's Sunday evening sorted then! 😁 I don't remember having ever seen the Wogan episode before - apparently it features Sondheim himself with cast members of the 1987 London production - Julia McKenzie, Diana Rigg, Dolores Grey, Pearl Carr and Teddy Johnson. I CANNOT WAIT.

To reinterpret 'Bolero' to that degree in front of Torvill and Dean while still paying homage to the original, and absolutely make it work, was a work of utter genius. Oti Mabusi holding her head in incredulity. Jayne jaw dropped and speechless. And yet they didn't win.

So it seems someone had a star on the Hollywood Boulevard Walk Of Fame (and Gene Hackman doesn't, incidentally) and this is what has happened to it. Oh dear. How sad. 😉

From my FB memories from today in 2017.
We knew history repeats itself, but is this time round the tragedy or the farce?
We are the resistance. We do not have to acquiesce in fascism.
