Calendar Events / Announcements '23 I / Lysette Anthony at next Hollywood Show

« on: August 05, 2023, 09:27:30 PM »

Recently added to the Hollywood Show lineup at the Burbank Marriott on October 6-7: Lysette Anthony

Thanks again, Kosmo!

I recently saw Lysette's excellent performance in "The Hollow", a Poirot movie from 2004. She played Veronica, an actress that traveled to see the former lover she never quite got over, telling him, "Leave me again and I really will make you sorry!" Thankfully there was no French accent.

The series is currently running on PBS So Cal, but I have no idea if other PBS stations are airing them.
