IF you are planning to be in Centralia, Washington on June 6th, have I got something for you ...


From The Chronicle:


"What do Rita Moreno and Robert Culp have in common?"



"For one thing, they're Hollywood legends. For another, they will appear together June 6 in the production of "Love Letters" at Centralia's historic Fox Theatre.

"This is a major event for a community this size. It's unprecedented," said Scott White, president of Historic Fox Theatre Restorations, a non-profit group working in conjunction with the city of Centralia to restore the 1930 theater to its original condition.

"I don't think anything like this has ever been done here," White continued. "It's pretty special."

The June production of "Love Letters" is a one-time-only production being done specifically for the Fox Theatre. It is not part of a touring show."

And in the world of "he's worked with everyone out there twice" category ....

This will not be the first venture that the "oh-so-talented" Ms. Moreno and Mr. Culp have embarked on together. Back in 1959, Ms. Moreno guest-starred on TRACKDOWN in an episode called "The Samaritan." Yes, your math is right, that was 50 years ago ....







Nice to know that they will be working together again!!


So where the hell is Centralia, Washington????


As always,

Well, Tatia, you early birder! I thought here at 5:22 a.m. I'd be the first to notify the group of this wonderful chance to see our man Culp up on the stage, returning to his first acting roots.

I don't know where Centralia is, but I may very well wind up there some random day in June!

Hi, all!

Centralia, Washington state is about 68 miles SW of Seattle, Washington and about 76 miles NW of Vancouver, Washington, which is where I am - I wish I could attend this, but I will be traveling in the opposite direction that day!

Centralia has a population of about 15,600 and has a charming historic district, so there will be lots to see besides, Bob and Rita, the main attraction, of course.

Thanks, Tatia and Mona for keeping everyone updated.

Hi Sue,

Thanks so much for the geographical information!!

I just Googled a map of Washington and even found Centralia's website .... It looks like a lovely town.

And how nice for them to have Bob and Rita performing there at their newly restored theater.

All my best,

Tatia
