20th Anniversary Nothing Like a Dame Concert, Honoring Marin Mazzie
By sheer coincidence, out of the eight Divas in our tournament to appear in the luminous Nothing Like a Dame concert in 2016, six of them are in this week's round. So, let's talk Women.

Pictured: Marin Mazzie with (L to R) Karen Ziemba, Tonya Pinkins, Judy Kuhn
Held as a benefit for the Actors Fund (now named the Entertainment Community Fund), the Nothing Like a Dame concert specifically went towards the Phyllis Newman Women's Health Initiative. The Entertainment Community Fund is an organization that provides "human services nationally for people who work in film, theater, television, music, opera, radio and dance." Many of our Divas have served on the board or various committees. Services include health and wellness resources, housing, financial assistant, senior care, etc.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pictured: Marin Mazzie with (L to R) Donna Murphy, Karen Ziemba, LaChanze, Bebe Neuwirth, Ali Stroker.
Diva Bebe Neuwirth (of next week's polls) directed a lineup of women that included Tonya Pinkins, Judy Kuhn, Donna Murphy, Mary Beth Peil, Marin Mazzie, Karen Ziemba, and LaChanze (also of next week's polls) among many others. Oh, to have been in the room...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pictured: (1, 2, 3) Donna Murphy, Mary Beth Peil, Marin Mazzie, Karen Ziemba. (4) Bebe Neuwirth, Marin Mazzie, Phyllis Newman, Donna Murphy.
Highlights of the night included the "Marinettes" (Donna, Mary Beth, and Karen) singing a medley of songs including "Wunderbar," "The Greatest Star," and “Wait Till You See Her,”; Judy Kuhn singing "Ring of Keys," and Tonya Pinkins giving a "chilling version of Dianne Reeves’ “Endangered Species.”

Pictured (L to R): Tonya Pinkins, Judy Kuhn, Erin Hill, ???, Phyllis Newman, Donna Murphy, Mary Beth Peil, Marin Mazzie, Karen Ziemba, LaChanze, Christine Ebersole, Julie Halston, Ali Stroker, Bebe Neuwirth.
Since 2016, the Nothing Like a Dame concerts, as far as I can find, have not proceeded. And what are we as a society doing to bring back concerts bursting at the seams with women?
youtube
The night ended with Marin Mazzie taking center stage on a little black stool with a field of sunflowers behind her as she sang Kander and Ebb's "But the World Goes Round." The song reached new poignancy for a woman fighting ovarian cancer. Less than two years later, the world stopped, and one of the brightest lights of Broadway went out for good. As the song goes, "and sometimes your heart breaks // With a deafening sound," but for the rest of us, the world really does go round.
Tumblr media
(Was this just an excuse to post a lot of pictures of Marin? Maybe...)

Broadway Barks 2023 rundown:
Terry Sims, Robert Levine, JOEL GREY, Michael Musto, and Patti and Harvey Cohen were all present
Thirty minutes to showtime I start noticing Brooks Ashmanskas, Michael McCormick, Julie Halston, Kate Buddeke et al and only when Pam Remler takes a selfie with everyone together does my brain piece together that they're there as a mini 20th anniversary of Gypsy
It's important to note that while Gypsy cast was onstage Kate started talking to Bernadette about playing the trumpet. How do I know that? Because the two of them just kept doing like air-trumpet-fingering back and forth as they talked.
Vicki Clark took a selfie with Bernadette that she should post.
Paolo Mantalban took a selfie with Bernadette that he should post.
"Who would've thought we needed a musical about corn?" - Bernadette
Two Laurie Metcalf/Bernadette hugs <3

Andrea Feldman 1 April 1948 - 8 August 1972
Tumblr media
Some would describe true star quality as when the audience can’t tell when you’re acting. That’s what Penny Arcade artist and friend said of Andrea Feldman, “A lot of people in the Warhol scene pretended to be crazy, but Andrea really was.”
She was a rich girl, with a long list of inpatient stays at state hospitals. After a nervous breakdown in the interim of the release of Andy Warhol produced Heat, the third film in the Paul Morrissey directed Trash trilogy, (where she had a co-starring role, as a psychotic, masochistic, lesbian) Penny remembers Andrea’s nervous breakdown, her physician adamantly telling her parents that, that all Andrea needed to stop the hysterics was a real job. To which Andrea told Penny, “What am I supposed to do? Be a waitress?!” She believed she was destined for stardom and after starring in Heat, not just any old star, but a Superstar. Andrea would commit suicide shortly before the film’s release.
Tumblr media
Before Heat, Andrea had had a co-starring role in Trash. Where she plays an ex-debutante Rich Girl looking to score some acid from her heroin-addicted conquest Joe Dallesandro, “Is it acid? Is it acid?! Is it acid?!?!” she asks him while he shoots up, in a high-pitched affected upper east-side / British drawl. She rattles on about how she’s never done drugs, was a virgin before her marriage to her husband and has never seen anyone shoot up. She invites Joe to rape her, in a cuckolding of her husband, but he’s impotent. An immovable and disengaged force, an unapologetic junkie. A total counter to the Rich Girl’s fast-talking neuroticism. Feldman’s character is indicative of a housewife looking for some excitement. Asking if this is all there is, why can’t I have more? 
Andy Warhol never attended the filming of Heat instead he kept in contact with the cast and crew via telephone. All the actors provided were members of Warhol’s Factory and the principal shooting took place in Los Angeles for two weeks in July 1971. This distance allowed Warhol to stir the pot. Bob Colacello, writer and editor of Interview magazine and Warhol’s right-hand man said: “...Andy barraged Sylvia [Mills], Andrea, and Pat [Ast] with late-night calls from New York, stirring things up long distance.” He made Sylvia jealous of Pat’s high fashion (she wore expensive muumuus designed by Halston), Pat jealous of Sylvia’s star-billing, “and... it didn’t take much to drive poor Andrea crazy.”
Tumblr media
Andrea was a native New Yorker who attended Quintano’s a well-known, private performing arts high school in mid-town New York, that groomed its students for a career in the spotlight. Some well-known alumni included Mary Weiss from the heartbreak girl group the Shangri-Las and queen of the stage and screen Bernadette Peters. But the education provided there was subject to criticism, a letter from New York’s Division for School Regulation and Supervision observed pointedly, “there is no science laboratory, no library, and no gymnasium.” 
From the mid-1960s onwards, Quintano’s was the school of choice for rich kids who had faced expulsion or flunked out of their previous schools for non-attendance or anti-social behaviour. One previous attendee described the mix of students as “...the students who were there because they had real careers and you had the fuck ups.” It seemed, especially during the drug-fuelled days of the 1960s, that as long as the incredibly expensive tuition fees were paid, drug use and dealing were ignored by the faculty.
Tumblr media
Andrea pioneered a performance called “Showtime”, where she performed a striptease on a round table in the centre of Max’s Kansas City, and received her nickname “Whips”, after a dance she did with them for Warhol’s multimedia art event The Exploding Plastic Inevitable between 1966 and 1967. The event included music from The Velvet Underground & Nico who Warhol promoted as “The Pop Girl of ‘66″. Andrea craved Andy’s attention referring to herself as “Ms. Warhol”. Warhol was known for the flitting of his affections based on whose persona he found interesting at the time. Nico’s unaffected, stoic-german, coolness stood in stark contrast to Andrea who was known as “Crazy Andy” amongst her friends.
Tumblr media
Leee Black Childers, photographer at the Factory and Andrea’s boyfriend before her untimely death remembers an incident in which after a short absence documenting Andy Warhol’s Pork at the Roundhouse in London. “...She stood up on a chair and held a picture of Marilyn Monroe over her head... After a long time of just standing there, she said, ‘Marilyn died; love me while you can!’” Her suicide note would read “I’m headed for the big time. I’m on my way up there with James Dean and Marilyn Monroe”. She jumped to her death from the fourteenth-floor window of her uncle’s apartment, a few days after the tenth anniversary of Marilyn Monroe’s death at the age of 24. Perhaps Andrea identified with Monroe as like her she would later allege mistreatment by directors, depression, and the inability to be taken seriously as an actress.
Tumblr media
On the 8th of July 1972, Andrea made dates with all her ex-boyfriends so that they would be on the sidewalk below when she jumped. Geraldine Smith who had written Andrea’s Village Voice obituary sympathetically excluded this detail, and detailed how Andrea’s final message to her friends was one of love. According to Bob Colacello, and his connections at The Factory, Smith made no mention of the more scathing portions of Andrea’s suicide note, where she cursed Andy Warhol and Paul Morrissey, claiming abuse. She had conducted an interview in July 1972 with George Ford for Interview magazine, which never made it to print. “They just throw you in front of a camera - they don’t care what you look like. They just use you, and abuse you, and step on you, and they don’t pay you anything... I’m a damn good actress and I’ve been brought down by Warhol and I’ve been mistreated by them.”
Tumblr media
She died three weeks before the release of Heat, holding either “a rosary and a can of coke” or “a bible and a crucifix” on her descent. Judith Crist of the New Yorker described her performance in the film as “in large part non-performance, comes from the late Andrea Feldman, as the flat voiced, freaked-out daughter, a mass of psychotic confusion, infantile and heart-breaking.”

Tumblr media
name: Triss Morgan-Silver
what: Half trickster, mixed with death spirit and werewolf
age: Appears late teens to early 20’s
birthday: July 29
occupation: Causing trouble
location: New York and New Orleans mostly
faceclaim: Halston Sage
status: Multi-Verse
relationship: Single
parents: Tru Morgan and Izzy Silver
siblings: Lin, Erika, Jeannie, Terra, and Shae
kids: None
Triss thrives on a very specific sort of chaos. Like, she was very much into the Storm Area 51 thing and is really big on riots. She’s been arrested multiple times for getting into physical altercations with police and there is definitely pics of her getting arrested, topless, with ACAB painted across her breasts in bright red paint. She loves anarchy and anything anti-government. If she were any deeper into it, she would almost be a nihilist.
Tru worries over her a lot and definitely blames herself for much of how Triss is but her youngest daughter doesn’t seem to care. She loves her family, she does, but she wishes they were more into the same kind of trouble she is. She’s very much a rebel with a cause child and it’s a major point of pride for her. So much so that she has “Be Gay, Do Crimes” tattooed on her right arm.

NYC Indie Theatre Film Festival: 6 features, 28 shorts, one weekend
Santino Fontana, Sarah Miles, and Julie Halston are each familiar to both theater lovers and filmgoers, so it feels fitting that they would be performing together in one of the thirty-four entries in something called the “NYC Indie Theatre Film Festival,” which is celebrating its eighth season this weekend at a new venue, A.R.T./New York Theatres. Fontana plays a magician named Billy who answers…

The 1970s - part 4
The Designers
Diane Von Furstenberg
In 1969 Diane Von Furstenbergmarried her first husband Prince Egon of Furstenberg, she then launched her own-name fashion label in 1970. "The minute I knew I was about to be Egon's wife, I decided to have a career,” she has said. “I wanted to be someone of my own, and not just a plain little girl who got married beyond her desserts." She achieved her dream in spectacular style, launching her signature wrap dress in 1973. Almost 40 years later and there is still no wardrobe that’s considered complete without one.
The wrap dress was inspired by seeing former President Nixon’s daughter Julie Nixon Eisenhower wearing a wrap blouse with a wrap skirt. Diane Von Furstenburg used this image as her motivation to combine the two into one “wrap” piece.

Her textile fashion designs were considered outrageous by the traditional British manufacturers, which made it hard to find work. In 1968 Zhandra Rhodes started a business with fashion designer Sylvia Ayton. The two designers opened a boutique called Fulham Road Clothes Shop. The business allowed Rhodes to create her textile designs onto garments designed by Sylvia Ayton. She produced her first collection showing loose, romantic garments.
In 1969, the two designers went their separate ways, with Rhodes establishing her own studio in Paddington in West London. As a freelancer she released her first solo collection. The collection of garments received recognition from both the British and American market. Marit Allen, editor of American Vogue at the time featured pieces of Rhodes’s collection in an issue. Receiving recognition by Marit Allen persuaded high end retailers like Henri Bendel, Fortnum and Mason, Neiman Marcus, and Saks to purchase her collection. In addition, her own lifestyle proved to be as dramatic, glamorous and extrovert as her designs. With her hair a vivid shade of bright green (later changed to pink, and sometimes red or other colours), her face painted with theatrical makeup and audacious art jewellery, she stamped her identity on the international world of fashion.

Roy Halston Frowick
Roy Halston Frowick, best known as Halston, was an iconic clothing designer of the 1970s. His sexy, yet elegant dresses became a staple in American disco wear. He started off by designing hats but it was his dresses that made him famous. They were unique and streamlined. He worked with cashmere, silk and rayon jerseys, double-faced wools, and Ultrasuede. After two decades of dressing the jet-set, Halston was diagnosed with AIDS. He passed away in 1990.

Yves Saint Laurent
Yves Saint Laurent was one of the most famous and influential fashion designer of the 1970s. Drawing inspiration from menswear, foreign cultures, and historical periods, Saint Laurent crafted a new, chic, and modern way of dressing that became synonymous with the sexy and glamorous lifestyle of the decade.
YSL is probably most famous for "Le Smoking" tuxedo jacket, see- through blouses, peasant blouses, bolero jackets, pantsuits and smocks. By feminising the basic shapes of the male wardrobe, YSL set new standards for fashion across the world. He not only adapted the male tuxedo for women, but also safari jackets, pea jackets and flying suits. As well as this he was also one of the first designers to use ethnic minorities as models on the runway.
