A CORNER OF SKIE AND MARY TOO!

I want to give a special plug to Skie Ocasio' show "At Last", a benefit for BROADWAY CARES/EQUITY FIGHTS AIDS, to be presented on Saturday, February 7th at 9:45 pm at THE METROPOLITAN ROOM (34 West 22nd Street, NYC - 212-206-0440). This handsome musical theater performer is a good friend - I gave him his very first cabaret review in 2002 when he appeared (mainly for family and friends) at DON'T TELL MAMA. He had a very bad cold that day, but in true showbiz style (and because his family was only in town that weekend) the show went on - and he was terrific. He begged me to return the following week when the cold was over, and it was even better. The weather should be good, so I hope to catch another friend's show (Mary Foster Conklin) at the METROPOLITAN ROOM at 7:30 and then catch a "corner of Skie" at 9:45 pm.
