A 2-page article about the First Former Playboy Bunny International Reunion held earlier this week in Las Vegas begins on the front page of today's L.A. Times Calendar section.

To read the entire article online, go to http://www.latimes.com/la-et-lipton21apr21,1,4412416.story.  A free registration is required.  Here's an excerpt in which KLS is mentioned:

     Many of the bunnies have matured into savvy women.  Seeing a cluster of them perched around the lobby, a middle-age hotel guest is prompted to stop Kathryn Leigh Scott, a Los Angeles publisher and actress who worked in the New York club in the early '60s.  "Hi, Bunny Kathryn," he says impishly.  "My God, it's a hotel full of beautiful women my own age," he adds.  Scott thanks him, then notes: "Some women here haven't seen each other in over 40 years."
     The fact that they are together is due in part to Scott, who in 1998 wrote "The Bunny Years," which chronicled life at the Playboy clubs.  She was inspired to write it, she says, after running into a dismissive Gloria Steinem at a publishing party.  In 1963, the pioneer feminist worked undercover at the New York Playboy Club in order to pen a famously derisive magazine expose about gender inequality.
     Though Steinem wasn't alone in seeing the bunnies as an artifact of society's rampant sexism, Scott and many of her former coworkers felt betrayed by the article.  They claimed that it did not reflect their handsome wages and the strict management guidelines that protected them from sexual harassment.  Many of them, like [Joyce] Woodward of the Chicago club, say they used the money to pay for college- in her case, Cornell.



There are 4 photos taken at the reunion that accompany the article, but none are of KLS.

Are there nameless people????????

No, it's just a glitch that has been occurring for a while.  MB always fixes it eventually.  There are a number of ways to see who authored a post in the meantime; the easiest is probably to click the View Profile icon in the message.

One of the two montages you'll see at the top of the page (they rotate) includes a picture of Alec Newman from the Frankenstein miniseries.

even though I have realplayer, it won't open for me...just their logo displays.

Hunny bunny, have you tried Criseyde's instruction to right click on the RP screen?

It's not that something will open, but that IE users may need to do an extra step in order to get it to connect to the server.

Typed from the L.A. Times article appearing in today's Calendar Section

Thank you, Bette, for the heads up!  My only other comment is OHMYGOD!!!

Something rotten indeed, forsooth

     "Hamlet" at the Tamarind falls into that category of purgatorial theater--a production so dreadful that a poor playgoer will surely receive comp time in the afterlife for merely sitting through it.  From beginning to end, it is a royal pain in the arras.
     Note to Francesco Vitali, who plays Hamlet (and happens to be the Tamarind's artistic director):  Next time you mount such a blatant vanity production, try Neil Simon.  It's easier to ad lib in contemporary English.
     Speaking of English, the Greek-born Vitali has an accent so thick you can cut it with a rapier, complete with a Schwarzenegger "s" that he adds liberally where it doesn't belong ("Lady, shall I lie in your laps?").  Instead of rectifying that liability through projection and enunciation, Vitali proceeds to gulp his lines like a drowning man.  Half his speeches are incoherent, and those that are roughly comprehensible are butchered.   ("What a piece of work is the man.")
     Unfortunately, the problem isn't confined to the star.  Line amnesia and slurred speeches are rampant.  A few performers manage to tread water in the vicinity of the shipwreck, but all hands are eventually dragged to muddy death.
     Director Aaron Mullen has scads of reputable credits, but he can't stem the tide of disaster.  This "Hamlet" is notable for its enormous advertising budget, evidenced by the big glitzy posters seen about town.  That money would have been better spent hiring vocal coaches.

For the Hallmarkless, a bio and images of Marsha Mason, plus an interview with her, and a synopsis and video preview of The Long Shot are available at http://www.hallmarkchannel.com/us_framework.jsp?TZ=TIMEZONES_92656

The time shown is Eastern, but any time zone can be entered on that page as needed.  The movie will air April 18 and April 21.

It's mentioned to her in her interview that she played a lot of memorable characters.  I'm sure none of us can forget Audrey the Leviathan Vampire Girl. :D
