Reminder from: astaire Yahoo! Group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/astaire/cal Fred's Birthday Thursday May 10, 2012 All Day (This event repeats every year.) ...
I think Broderick was great in The Producers and I have seen lots of performers as Leo Bloom. Dancing and signing were fine in this role. But he looks rather...
How clever of this production, and how considerate of deaf audience members, to have Broderick "signing." Tell me, does he sign in the dialogue as well as the...
I keep thinking of more and more numbers that could go on this list. At the risk of veering off on a tangent, I think two of the most romantic numbers do not...
I came across Fred's WW1 draft registration card on the internet. It states his eye colour as brown. I don't believe an official would know better than his...
I was at this lovely event on Friday. Unfortunately I didn't have time last week to post a message in advance asking if any other listers would be there. The...
I went to the British link and couldn't find the Ava article....

Dear All, I was at the Aldwych Theatre on the 27th of last month and there was a great atmosphere in the audience. The production is superb and I recognised a...
I quite agree. I like the non-dancing version of "They Can't Take that Away from Me" better than the later danced version. I like the singing, the acting,...
Thanks to both of you for your comments. Sounds like it was a fabulous night. I wish I could have been there... I'm so glad that they have improved the show...
I just heard from Amazon that my copy of John Franceschina's "Hermes Pan: The Man Who Danced with Fred Astaire" will arrive next week. Can't wait! Has anyone...
Got my copy? I didn't know the book existed until I read this post. But you can bet I've immediately ordered it! (I assume the book has been discussed on...
I'm always glad when somebody mentions fondly THE SKY'S THE LIMIT, and I've always dearly loved the dance duet to "Be Careful, It's My Heart" in HOLIDAY INN....
Brief mention or two as I recall here. And amazon.com has tripled it with "The Astaires" and "Music Makes Me." You can still order it individually of course. ...
I'm sorry I've been forgetting to mention the March issue of Movie Collector's World; the cover features a full color reproduction of a poster from FOLLOW THE...

Wow, what a lot of great comments and pictures, pictures.... Thanks for linking me in. So nice to hear that people remember him so fondly. I spent some time...
May 11, yet another birthday for Izzie Baline! Berlin wrote more films for Fred than any other performer - six altogether. In the bookstores now! The Irving...
I LOVE the images that a lister posted here: http://someheresome there.tumblr. com/post/ 22800062119/ fred-astaire- celebrates- his-birthday- with-some ...
About your book: I read what was available on the preview at Amazon. Looks wonderful!!! I'm looking forward to being able to order. (wish it was available on a...
Thank you! That's so sweet and it's great that you can be providing an education to your son! Ben In the bookstores now! The Irving Berlin Reader, my...
I was delighted to received the Bio on Fri., and I naturally had to sort of do a quick read-through over the next few days, fitting it in with everything else....
I've been enjoying the hell out of your book for a few weeks now. I consider it Essential Reading for any fan of Fred or good music. (You've reminded me of...
However, if speaking technically of who wrote the most songs specifically for Fred to INTRODUCE (given that Fred sang so many Irving Berlin tunes in films that...
